    Step 1. Using a black kohl eyeliner pencil draw a thin, straight line close to the lashes, from the inner corner of the eye to the outter corner.

    Step 2 and 3. Apply a dark green kohl eyeliner right above the black line and all the way to the crease.

    Step 4. Smudge the crease with your finger. Do this fast as the pencil dries quickly.

    Step 5. Outline your entire eye by connecting the green eyeliner from the outer corner all the way to the inner corner, just below the lower lash line.

    Step 6 and 7. Fill in the waterline and lash line with a matte black pencil connecting the inner and outer corner as well.
