FOTD: A Rose Romance-esque Look
I tweaked the "A Rose Romance" look and made it more me by making it a little more vibrant, but also using the same key colors: pink, purple, and blue.
Just a quick run-down on what I used:
[Face]
- MAC Prep + Prime Skin Base
- MAC Studio Tech Foundation in NC35
[Cheeks]
- MAC Beauty Powder in "Blush of Youth"
[Eyes]
- Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer
- MAC e/s in "Trophy Pink" from the Antiquitease Holiday Cool Palette on lid
- Lime Crime e/s in "Empress" on contour
- MAC e/s in "Ricepaper" as highlight
- Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen
- L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara
- MAC pigment in "Mutiny" and UD Eye Pencil in "Electric" on lower lashline
[Lips]
- MAC "Magnetique" lipglass
I also did a little Hawaii shopping and ordered a few things online for my trip; even though it's in August, so many good deals are going on right now I just couldn't pass 'em up! So I bought a few swimsuits, since I am gonna be there for nearly 2 weeks, and I also bought some water shoes because last time my sister and I went to Hawaii we cut our feet from the coral and the jagged rocks when we went snorkeling, and since I plan on getting "rugged" this time, I thought id get a pair of water shoes, and they are actually pretty cool as they have "drain holes" at the bottom for the water, and it's made out of the wet suit material so it dries fast. No walking around with mushy, wet, squeaky shoes!
Swimsuit from Target, I don't like it as a bandeau, but it comes with a strap so you can make it into a halter....you can bet im hitting the gym hardcore now to fit in it! LOL.

ReplyDeleteSo pretty Nessa! I do want Mutiny pigment so badly!
ReplyDeleteI love that pink on your eyes! Really pretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't like bandeau swimsuits. I don't know, in my opinion, they suit only a little number of women (like Kate Bosworth).
haha.. i'd be right there along with you and edward.. dreamy sighhhh.. love the vibrant colors girl!! =)
ReplyDeletei'm so envious of your eyes, nessa! you make such wonderful looks. :) ooohhh hawaii. i think those from spiegel will look great on you. but the bandeau is definitely a must have. :) esp for busty women. :)

Oh I'm going to Hawaii in August too! I've never snorkeled before but my sister and I bought a Northshore package and we get to snorkel for 2.5hrs! The shoes seems to be a good idea; am I supposed to wear them while snorkeling so if I accidentally step on coral my feet will be ok?

Zac and I left our water shoes at his parents' place like 5 years ago. Haha. I wonder if they're still there. We got them from Payless!

ReplyDeletesuch a sweet look!!and that twilight stuff is hilarious bwahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteThe look is awesome and so vibrant, I love it!
ReplyDeletehahaha i love the last picture!!! he is a hottieeeee and so are you!
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled that Mutiny is back for a while, it's one of the ones I've wanted but didn't want to pay premium on eBay for. I wasn't that impressed with the purples in Rose Romance, they didn't seem very vibrant. Much prefer your revamped version.
ReplyDeleteHaha lovely photoshop skills. I love his like ^^ and then :D.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for you and your upcoming trip to Hawaii. Dude, it's my favorite vacation spot. What island are you going to? If you go to Oahu or Maui, I can give you some ideas of great spots for food, sites, and fun if your not familiar with these places. I go about twice a year. =) Good call on getting some decent water shoes. You and your family are gonna have a blast! =)
ReplyDeletelol that's awesome, those twilight pics
