Warm Olive Smokey Eye

lately i’ve been sporting this olive-toned smokey eye and really loving it (the boyf has complimented it, too!) so i thought i’d share a mini tutorial on it. the main color i am using is not green per se, but a brown with lots of gold shimmer, which lends it an olive sheen that is really, really pretty. it is an easy-to-follow look and a great alternative to the usual gray or bronze smokey eye, and can be taken up or down a notch with your own tweaking.

do pardon the poor video quality though; i have yet to discover my camera’s best settings for filming this sort of thing.
