Hello ladies! Soooooo, I am trying to do more colorful looks, but you gotta understand, neutrals are the way to go for a person who has little time for makeup, lol.
A week ago I made this look, also in a rush!! OMG, I hate that. But seriously, I have to start planning my looks again because after doing neutrals for so long, I feel like I don't know how to handle/measure/plan my makeup minutes. I wore this for an activity with my hubby & kids, I guess I will be posting soon on my other blog about it.
But I like it, it's different. My skin is not so great on cool colors, but meh, I don't care. At my age, I just want to try different things, forget a little about the rules. =P
Though I KNOW my eyebrows look so unruly, when I saw the pics I was shocked (drama queen here!!!) hahaha. The look nice now...
