Same same - And this was such a fun week. I'm sad that I missed it.I had such a fail week with this theme and I was so excited about it. I've been really busy and short on sleep so haven't had enough time in the mornings to do my makeup. Only thing tropical I got to do was my nails and my makeup on Wednesday was tropical-ish lol. Hopefully I can still do something fun this weekend.
No comment!
We can repeat it some time in the futureSame same - And this was such a fun week. I'm sad that I missed it.
I vote yes!I need a ruling- would NARS Valhalla count as a pastel?
I'm also a bit sad that I failed the tropical theme, I looked forward to that so much, but then it wasn't meant to be. Let's do it again at some point!
Sadly, I won't be on theme as well this week - I'll br travelling home, as well to the European Championships in horse riding and then to a little beach get-away with hubby and will return in about a week.
My last makeup look for the tropics theme was purple like my last - basically I build it around Chanel Campanule and added MAC Memorabilia on the eyes. It wasn't very tropical, but I added a neutral blush and highlighter and MAC's Courting Lilacs l/s and liked it a lot.
Last week was a bit hectic as well (no settling down for us!) because apparently hubby will be transfaired to another branch of his company oversees so we had a lot to talk about. Still not completely sure if we'll want to go through with it. So it's all a bit in limbo. And my undies (@Medgal07) are not pastel either!!!!!
I vote yes!
Nails & clothes count too!!!!I don't think I'll be on theme this week. It's crazy hot here and I can't picture myself wearing pastels. Actually, the only pastel shade I have atm (I'm not in the UK) is a baby pink paint pot. Today I'm wearing CT Jean and Chanel Mirage; CT Amber Haze on the lower lash line. I received the Dior Cosmopolite highligter today but I couldn't not wear MAC Double Definition with this eye look. I hope everyone has a more successful makeup week

I applied what I thought was a light pastel green eyeshadow to my lid this morning but now I'm looking at my eyes, the colour has a heavy gold sheen to it. It looks more tropical than pastel now lol. I've got pastel olive green and blue green on my finger nails, a muted dusty, mauve-pink on the toes and Colourpop Bound lippie stix on the lips (a light rosy-pink - on me at least). The rest of my makeup is down played today as I was rushing so that's been the extent of my pastel thus far. Hopefully I can do some more exploring on the morrow!A little PASTEL inspiration here: pastel
That's what happened with the green eyeshadow I put on Saturday. It had more gold in it than I realized.I applied what I thought was a light pastel green eyeshadow to my lid this morning but now I'm looking at my eyes, the colour has a heavy gold sheen to it.
