Welcome back!  This mermaid eyes look was inspired entirely by the NYX Prismatic single shadow in the shade Mermaid which I picked up from Ulta about a month ago.  I love how it has this ethereal, mermaidy, green iridescence right out of the pan, and wanted to play with layering it over lighter and darker bases to create a gradient look totally focused on the Mermaid color.

To get the gradient effect, I used my ColourPop Creme Gel Liner in Exit, and my Maybelline Color Tattoo in Tenacious Teal to intensify how Mermaid would look once layered on top.  Then I used a beautiful navy/cobalt blue hybrid to intensify and wing out the outer v of my eye.  I finished the look with a thin wing, and a heavy, hard (aka not blended out, on purpose) black line on my lower lashline.  I skipped mascara on the lower lashes so the intensity of the liner would really stand out.  The look was awesome with just mascara, but my Huda Beauty lashes in #7 Samantha are perfectly flared, and they complemented the wing in a way that made this look feel extra glam.
