Seeing green
Considered the windows to the soul, eyes are the first things we notice about someone. Sweep on enchanting emerald green, and you’ll hypnotize.
Ways to wear it: Use a gel-based liner that won’t smudge, or work a shade of green into a smoky eye. Or choose the mod way to wear makeup and draw a green line along the crease—just glimpsing a pop of green when you blink.

Kiss me, I’m Irish.
For the seriously brazen girl (we know you’re out there), the green pout is now a trend—and you’re going to rock it. Precious gem-colored lips have been spotted on celebs and on the runways, and there’s no better time to break out the green than this St. Patty’s Day.
Ways to wear it: Take baby steps with a sheer green-tinted gloss, or go all in with a shimmery green lipstick. Either way you wear it, you’ll surely leave your mark.Color Fever Gloss in Green Petal, $27, sephora.com

Rare gems
Green eye shadow not enough? Here’s a roundup of fun ways to fit the hue into your big night beauty routine.
Ways to wear it: Make like a runway model and stick individual gemstones onto your lids. Feeling more like a flash? Take lashes to new lengths with a stunning, feathery lime fringe. Or sport a welcome new addition to the nail art trend: nail wraps. Sticking these stunners onto all ten, or even just one or two of your digits will make an unexpected point. For a hair color change without the commitment, chalk on shades of seafoam to hair ends for a fresh take on the ombre trend.
