Little Leprechaun

I have always been a gal who LOVES themes. I have always loved holidays and celebrating even the smallest ones. Give me the opportunity to throw a themed party, and I go all out! But, is it just me or does St. Patrick’s Day always seem to fall on a weekday? Maybe that’s why I can’t seem to remember really doing much for this holiday. I did go to a few parades as a pre-teen but the most I’ve ever done is wear green to avoid being pinched!

For these looks I wanted to do more of a wearable look and then one that is a little more dramatic. I’m not usually one to wear color as I find a neutral eye suits me best, but I really do love coordinating looks around holidays. For both of these looks I used the same green shadow, and in the second look I amped it up with glitter, thick liner and false lashes.

I tried to use a combination of drugstore products and a few high end. As someone with a chronic illness (y’all, those medical bills are NO joke), it’s important to try and find beauty products that work well but that are also affordable. I know that most months it’s more important to pay that bill rather than go to Sephora. Don’t get me wrong, as a Spoonie it’s also important to treat yourself every once in a while. Unfortunately with Gastroparesis I don’t get to treat myself with yummy food, so I choose to treat myself with makeup goodies!
