The look starting gaining traction when 19 year-old Ellie Costello began posting pictures of the nature-inspired looks to her Instagram account @makeupisart_x. From there, the looks went seriously viral.

The young M.A.C makeup artist appears to incorporate real flowers into her beauty creations. Ellie told her followers that she picks the flowers from her front garden and uses them to dream up a new eye look.

Here at beautyheaven we love the idea of using makeup as an art form for creative expression. The terrarium eye look might not be practical for everyday wear, but it sure is beautiful to look at!
What do you think of the terrarium eye look?

It does photograph beautifully but of course I wonder how that would even stay up. Regardless, some really beautiful and creative stuff

I appreciate the talent behind these, it would take amazing skill but it doesn't seem practical for a night out haha

All I could think was - this would be so irritating and uncomfortable :(

These are artistic, yes. Looks good for fashion photoshooting. Definitely not for a daily wear or even for party.

Definitely not practical, and I wouldn't consider it a trend. Looks good as a photo shoot though.

I love this creative makeup but beyond a photoshoot I can't see myself doing this.

For me, yes it is very pretty for models to wear and it is beautiful art but not for everyday wear.

I definitely appreciate the work that has gone into all these looks (hey, I'm a huge drag queen fan). That said, I remember wearing a double set of false eyelashes and wondering, after two hours, how I was going to last the night! I did, out of pure stubbornness. I would have to have a rod of steel up my spine to wear any of these looks!
Power to you!

I admire the skill/art involved in this, however I question the practicality, having all that so close to my eye, it would be so uncomfortable.

If I was going to a fancy dress party, my inner fairy would love to walk around with these makeup looks. These works of art would look amazing for editorial fashion shoots, the runway etc.

Very creative, and talented! but wouldn't you get all that into your eyes and wouldn't it be heavy.

Pretty, but not practical. Maybe for a few hours to get a photo taken then all that art work would get 'destroyed'. I don't think my contact lenses would like it either.

Some of this looks sooooo cool. Not exactly an everyday makeup look though...more art instead.
