wilde green
I'm not a huge makeup enthusiast, so I'm surprised at how intrigued I am by this pic of Olivia Wilde in the April issue of InStyle. I love the green shimmery eye color! Yes, I'm aware that green is not the ideal shade for my green eyes, blah, blah. However, it's so subtle and springy... I just can't resist. But FYI, I'm a (mostly) all natural cosmetics/skin care advocate, so I immediately began a search for a counterpart to the InStyle recommended eye shadows. What I found and purchased and LOVE is Everyday Minerals eye color in pressed olive and cypress. Pressed olive (left) is a very translucent light green shimmer, and cypress (right) is a darker neutral green pearl. And the best part is that they are only $2.50 each and 100% natural. I ordered them on a monday and had them by the weekend.

green eyeshadow is one of my staples, especially that olive-y color. It's the best way to work the color without looking 80's or like a forest nymph, I think. Green on green eyes I think is great, I wish I had greener eyes!
I completely agree. I think green on green eyes works fine, especially if it's a subtle neutral shimmer. I also wish I had greener eyes - mine are more of a hazel/green.
