Emerald Turqouise

Emerald Turqouise is a warm green-blue that looks STUNNING against True Autumns other warm shades such as terracotta, gold, olive etc. I decided to pair a emerald turqouise sweater I just picked up at Old Navy with a warm olive green eye and terracotta lip - the combination is gorgeous - its really fun pairing different shades from the Autumn palette and seeing what stunning combinations you can come up with. Emerald Turqouise + Olive green is a keeper!!!

FOr this makeup look I started with NARS ginger concealer and St. Moritz tinted moisturizer. I skipped the bronzer, but used a bronze toned shade as a blush - Sweet as Cocoa by MAC. FOr the eyes, I acheived the olive toned shades by using YSL #10 eyeshadow quad (I used the lighter and deeper olive shades only). I use Sephora olive eyeliner and applied mascara to finish. I then lined my lips with Mahogany lipliner and used Strength lipstick - both by MAC

Thanks so much Margo. I know that you like the clear shades on me and the more I look at the true autumn palette, the more I see certain colours that do have that 'clear' affect, like this one emerald turqouise, but there is also marigold yellow, true orange, jade, purple - a lot of these shades when paired with true autumn basics like chocolate brown, camel etc really 'pop' yet look harmonious at the same time - I'm going to have to delve into this more!!!
