Things that I'll be incorporating into my look:
1. Curly hair: (Ok yes, you can see my new color here, more on that this afternoon!) My hubby likes when I curl my hair, and I'm still getting the hang of my new cut. This was the day after the cut, and somehow I feel kind of plastic here (and a bit like this is a DMV picture, that background is so boring!) My layers are moving a bit differently now with curls, so I'm practicing. But, I usually curl with my Beachwaver Curling Iron, and with just a little mousse and some hair oil my hair is good to go for a few days.
2. Darker Shadow: Obviously, a little smoky eye! When creating this look I just grabbed things from my stash that worked, I didn't worry about whether items were currently available (so sorry about the MAC Fafi paint pot from 2008!)
3. Pink Lips: I wanted some color, but not too dark. That middle ground seems to be something my hubby responds to.
4. Elie Saab Perfume: Whenever I wear this light and pretty floral he says he likes it. Every single time.
Next I applied black pencil to my upper and lower lash lines, really working the liner into my upper lash line and smudging it well. Finally, I curled my lashes like crazy and layered two mascaras for amazing lashes with just mascara. I used Fresh Supernova and then the new Maybelline Rocket Volume Express.
I've been spraying my face every day with the new formulation of the Urban Decay All Nighter spray to keep my makeup long lasting. A full review is coming, but I love it!
Love the hair! It really suits your coloring (I have similar coloring and slightly darker - natural - hair). Love the look too!
ReplyDeleteI like it! I am loving the curls!!
ReplyDeleteI love the look and I'm in awe of your hair. It's STUNNING, Christine. That shade totally suits you!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your hair! Very pretty look and I adore Elie Saab perfume too!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks beautiful and is such a complimentary color for your skin tone! The MAC Fafi eye color is gorgeous too. Such a shame it's no longer available.
ReplyDeleteI love the whole look. And I'm totally jealous of your drawing abilities. you look great!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Your look is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteYour whole look is gorgeous. It looks great with your new hair - both cut and color are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour hair makes a new you - so sexy. I bet your husband loves it. I now have to pull out my Shu Mesmerizer and I'm worried that I might need the UD Basic after everyone's raves.
ReplyDeleteSuch a very pretty look on you!! So intricate to apply, and yet, so streamlined. Love it. Happy Valentine's Day and thanks for sharing this ... xoxo Beth in Pgh ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! UD Mushroom is one of my faves! I have never tried the UD All Nighter spray. So, I will be looking forward to your review!
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful! Love the look!
ReplyDeleteYour new hair looks so good! Love this look!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! What a lovely feminine look....I'm in love with that MAC Cash Flow Paint Pot...It sort of looks like a lighter version of Maybelline's Bad to the Bronze.
