Theme Makeup with a Purpose

[starletta8]

Okay. I had a look back over the last 5 pages and it seems the last agreed theme was Pastels Week. I'm subject to correction but I didn't see a post after Meddy's post 3 weeks ago. I guess most of you lovely ladies are busy this weekend so I'm going to play it by ear tomorrow until we decide a new theme sometime this week. Hope you ladies have been having a fab week and weekend!

Yeah, I gave up hope of hearing from anyone.

It's a shame, since due to a family emergency, I can't commit beyond tomorrow. So I guess today was my last day participating. My world's literally falling apart, but it was nice playing along the last few months. I'll miss this.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been going through so much lately starletta.

Maybe since so many of us seemed to have missed the last couple of week's challenges (I know I did. I haven't had a single look in two weeks) maybe we can use the next week as "Make Up, Makeup" where people can take a stab at the looks they would have done for Hot Tropics/Pastels? Just a suggestion.

I've finished up Pastels Week with a fully compliant FOTD. I look forward to hearing what the next themes are, but because of some life-altering events in my life outside of the keyboard and the fun that is makeup, I'm not sure how much I'll be able to participate after Tuesday. I've hit the point where there's not enough glitter and concealer to cover up everything going on these days.

I picked up the Maybelline liner last week when there was a Plenti offer on it, since I'm a sucker for purple liners. Sorry to report that it's incredibly drying.

I'm so sorry to hear that you're experiencing some personal challenges at the moment. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers and look forward to welcoming you
back when the issues are resolved. Sending good thoughts and positive vibes your way!!!!

Pretty much what I was thinking and suggesting. I vaguely recall people saying they didn't get to do as much of the Tropics theme and wanted a do-over.
Your suggestion is EXCELLENT! It expands on that. So what I think I hear you saying is that for the last three week's themes we select any of those themes from which
to create makeup looks: Country Meadows, Tropics/Tropical and Pastels.

Man, I threw up a little. LOL

So for anyone who missed the post, this is what we're doing:

Using the last three week's themes, select any you wish, from which to create makeup looks: Country Meadows, Tropics/Tropical and Pastels.

Hurray! I definitely had more looks I wanted to try on these! Sorry I've been absent the last little while. With the painting and a few other commitments, I've felt sort of overwhelmed. I have been following the themes, though, even if I haven't been posting looks. And I love seeing what everyone else has done!

Quite often life just gets in the way, and we just roll with it. I had more non-makeup days then I had planned----it just worked out that way but I had fun and enjoyed the
days that I did wear makeup last week. I'll really glad I'll get to play a bit more, especially with the Tropics.

I ended Pastels Week actually wearing pastels. I'm obsessed with Tom Fords new Eye and Cheek Shadow Ombré which I initially thought were almost too light/sheer but are actually very pigmented. I've also been using more of my new products than ever before.

I've been having a lot of no-makeup days and/or very minimal makeup days too! I'm excited to get back on the wagon though!

I am so glad for this because I have failed at some point for each of the past 3 weeks. I apparently made my mark today because my boss said I look "very beachy" today...I dunno if that is good or bad, but I hit the tropical mark. I have on cobalt blue pants, a flowy multicolored top with cobalt accents, a cobalt blue smoky eye with coral blush and some milky cantaloupe-y lipgloss (NARS Odalisque?). Yay for success!

Yes!!!! I call that a HAPPY LOOK. I'll bet you look adorable Sage!!!! Brights make me happy and if I'm
wearing them at the beach---well all the better!!!

I don't know what category my look falls into. I confess I was hell-bent on trying another new product and assumed it must fit somewhere between Tropics & Country Meadows.

Hi, is there a theme for the week after next week?

 

[Shars]

Hi, is there a theme for the week after next week?

We're doing any looks from the three previous themes: Country Meadows, Tropics and Pastels!
We do need to think about what we want to do for next week. I'm so lost creatively. I can't think lol. Maybe we can do over the palette a day challenge or something like that.

Ah lost lol I thought that was this week :lmao: Hope you find some inspiration! Maybe we can do duochromes or nature-inspired like vivid shades for peacocks or neutrals for lions and I don't know what else lol because I have really only been brushing my brows and using the Filmstar highlighter with mascara and balm myself. When I want to skip mascara I try to remember Jeremy Renner's advice:
