St Patrick’s Day is just around the corner! And in the spirit of the holiday I decided to create an eye look that incorporated both green and gold. I was recently sent the new gold liquid liner from Youngblood and thought it would be perfect to use in this eye look. I wanted to keep this look fun, but wearable, for a day of festivities, but it would be really easy to tone it down a bit for just a regular day at the office. 🙂
Before we dive into the tutorial, I just wanted to share a few up-close pictures of the Youngblood liquid liner in 18 Karat. I’ve honestly never had much use for glitter liners before, but they are fun to use on occasion! This liner works really well and the color shows up true to its name — like gold!
Are you ready to dive into the tutorial? The shadows I’m using will be from the LORAC Unzipped Gold palette and the L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Emerald Green.
St Patrick’s Day Makeup Tutorial
Step 1 // After priming your lids use the shade Undressed and blend it from your browbone down into your crease.
Step 2 // Using a fluffy blending brush, blend Undeniable into your crease to act as your transition shade.
Step 3 // Pick up a little bit of Unedited and use a more precise brush to deepen up the outer corner. Take your time building up the intensity.
Step 4 // Press the L’Oreal shadow onto your lid. I used my finger, but you can use a brush or Fix+ if you like.
Step 5 // Going back into Unedited, use it to blend all the colors together seamlessly.
Step 6 // Now taking the Youngblood liner, give yourself a thick wing. You can make the wing as long or short as you like, just make it thicker than normal. Only bring it about halfway across your lashline. (I tried to get the gold to show up true to color, but it’s so reflective! Just know it’s a lot prettier in person! 😉
Step 7 // Using your favorite black liner, do a thinner, winged liner right below the gold.
Step 8 // Apply a black liner to your waterline.
Step 9 // Use a mix of Undeniable and Unedited to blend out the lower lash line.
Step 10 // Taking the liner again, apply it generously to your inner corner to make your eye look pop!
And there you have it! Your eye look is complete! Pretty simple and not too complicating, I hope. 🙂 It’s always fun for me to make step-by-step tutorials for you all, and doing one for a holiday like St Patrick’s day is even more fun! Let me know if you’d like me to do these more often!
Now it’s your turn! What sort of eye look do you plan to wear on St Patrick’s Day? Will you be wearing green on your eyes? Lips? Let me know!

Thank you for your support!
I love the color combination! Might reproduce it myself! I think I have a similar gold eyeliner 🙂 well done Katie!
If you do try it out and share the results, tag me on any of my social medias — ladykaty92 — I would love to see yours!
lovely look! the gold eyeliner is so pretty!
Yes, it’s a stunning eyeliner. I love that it still looks really gold, instead of clear with gold flecks, like most glitter eyeliners I’ve tried in the past.
I love that gold pop! So pretty!
It’s fun and different, especially for me. I’m such a ‘safe’ girl when it comes to eyeshadow colors 🙂
Wow! Love this! I like that little pop of gold! The tutorial is helpful, but somehow I always struggle with the wings. LOL
Wings ARE tough! But on the days when I don’t want to stress about getting it right, I use tape. 😉 I wrote a whole post on it, just search “secret to the perfect wing” at the top of my blog and it should come up. 🙂
This eyeliner is amazing and I want it. I actually will be wearing a green eye look this St. Paddy’s; I’ve been using a green MAC palette for a while now, trying to hit pan on at least one shade.
I hope you hit pan — it always feels like such a HUGE accomplishment! 😉
Green eyeshadow looks so good on you!
Thank you, I really love green on my eyes, too!
This is just so pretty and I love that shade of green x
Thanks Rachel! It’s so vibrant in person 😀
When I saw the gold, I thought “No way!” but it totally worked!!
Glad you thought so, too! It shows up a lot more ‘true gold’ in person, not so muted. But it’s still pretty either way 🙂
Super pretty and I love that gold!
Thanks Krystal, glad you like it!
youngblood makes one of my favorite primers.
Ohhh, eyeshadow primer? I’ll have to try it! LORAC makes the only eyeshadow primer that works for 12+ hours on me. Everything else I try starts to crease by the end of the day.
This is so so fun! That pop of gold is just perfect 🙂
Also…you are the queen of the wing!!
Awww, thank you girl! I love me some wings. Whenever I don’t do a wing, I always think something looks off, lol
I love this! The gold liner is the perfect finishing touch and this one looks so pretty <3

Thank you, Ashley!
Love this tutorial! I love the shade of green that you used!
Thank you, I really like this shade, too!
I love that eyeliner!!!!! I’ve never seen a liquid gold one before.
This one is very unique and beautiful — all the other gold glitter liners I’ve used in the past are just clear with glitter flecks. This is outstanding!
Oh my gosh, the gold liner is PERFECT! What a gorgeous look on you!
Thank you, girly, I loved the results 😀
