Little beauty diary : Edgy Emerald

Hi, pretties! Just wanted to share my makeup look based on Emerald stones color. I picked up the Maybelline color tattoo gel cream eyeshadow in Edgy Emerald and tried to mix it with glitter black eyeliner for a wearable, chic and sophisticated look. 

Emerald.

Emerald Gemstone meaning

The emerald is the sacred stone of the goddess Venus. It was thought to preserve love. The emerald has long been the symbol of hope. It is considered by many to be the stone of prophecy. For some the emerald acts as a tranquilizer for a troubled mind. The emerald is said to bring the wearer reason and wisdom. The strongest time for the powers of the emerald is said to be spring.

Lucky for love, give your lover an emerald to stay faithful.

In several cultures the emerald was the symbol for fertilizing rain. In the Christian faith it is the symbol of faith and hope.

I have been collecting Maybelline color tattoo eyeshadow in different colors, i would say, i love these gel cream based eyeshadow because it is easy to apply and work on the eyelids. If you in rush, just wear it alone and add some eyeliner or mascara and you good to go. Even though they said it is 24hr wear, but you might want to apply a little bit eye primer before it to avoid creasing.
