FOTD: Pop of Garnet

Happy Saturday! I am home just taking it easy today before I get going on some packing for my big move. On days like today, I really just like to take makeup risks and try some new color combinations out. Today's look was inspired by a photo that I saw on a makeup forum. I put a pop of a Garnet color onto the lower lash line to give some extra ooomph to the look. It's subtle, but it seems to have warmed up the eye look on me. I think it really helps bring out the brown in my eyes. 

The photo to the right was taken in natural lighting without flash next to a window. 

Here are two more photos taken in the same lighting. One with eyes open and one with eyes closed.

FOTD: Orange Lip

I don't know about all of you, but I am dying for Spring to come. I am getting somewhat tired of darker makeup. I really needed to create a look that was bright and fun. Something that reminded me of Spring time. The first thought that came to my mind was an orange lip. I wore Revlon Lip Butter in Tuitti Fruitti almost the entire last Spring. I absolutely love that color. Since I am in the process of trying out the WetnWild Megalast Lipcolors, I thought I would try the coral of the bunch.
