Inspired by a Cow's Tapetum

Hey everyone!
So after reading the title of this blog post, you're probably a little freaked out! While I was at camp, I dissected a cow's eye and got inspired by the Tapetum, which is an iridescent colorful layer at the back of the eye. I wanted to keep this look simple, just a nice gradient of color, and more wearable than some of my other looks recently hahaha =)

What I used:
- NYX Eyeshadow base
- Coastal Scents 88 shimmer palette
- Wet'n'wild Mega Eyes Defining Marker
- Buxom Mascara
- NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
