Cancer Awareness Through the Beauty of Color

[luvlydee]

THINK PINK! I was a medical assistant for an oncology(Cancer) place and i loved all my patients, never met any people who made me appreciate life more than the ones knowing they're living their last days....special shout out to all the fighters who overcame and lost their lifes fighting to overcome this sickness

very pretty!

CartoonChic, Fiberluver and Kimibos,
Thanks for continuing your show of support! CartoonChic, wearing a pink lip is a huge commitment, especially when we've just purchased every new shade in the MM collection, and several lippies from the prior collections. So, "Trend" well taken! So sorry you're "feeling blah". BTW, I love your dry sense of humor!

I wasn't very creative today, October 5, but I came up with this:

All MAC
EYES:
Aurora Pigment
Complete wash of Girly from crease to brow
Trax to Crease and slightly above
Trax to lower lid
Blacktrack to line upper lid
Smolder to waterline & smudged into lower lid

FACE:
Supernova blush
Play It proper highlight
Crystal Pink highlight
Bobbi Brown Pink Peony lightly over entire face
Cork lip pencil
Please Me lipstick

Nails:
Essie's I Am Strong

Lol, thanks. My sense of humor is all over the place. I just like to laugh. That look seems very creative and pretty to me. I automatically classify anything using pigments as advanced. I won't go near them even though they're so pretty to look at.

 

[Fiberluver]

It's day 5 and the all pink diet is getting to me a bit.

I will hold firm, however!

Onward ... !

Oh you MUST try pigments. They're really fun. I used to feel the same way. After I took the plunge and played with them a bit...well there's just no turning back. I love them. Using Fix+ really helps to control & apply them. Some of my favorites are Aurora, Nebula & Chocolate Brown. Honestly, get just one and play around with it. If you can drive you can master pigments! I'm cheering you on!

Oh I know Fiberluver. I'm looking at all of the new pretty lipsticks that I've gotten over the past two months or so and I'm like...WHAT were you thinking? I'm itching to wear my burgundies and rich reds and oranges. That said, I'm going to start working some other colors into my pink looks. Pink will just be the cornerstone in the look.

I don't know how I missed this thread, but I am definitely in. My Mother is a survivor.

I am going to get a pink mani/pedi this weekend. I might see if they can do the ribbon on one of my nails.

 

[Prettypackages]

Medgal, I can't wait to hear how you like the BB Pink Peony.

[Medgal07]

Hello & welcome to Partners in Pink vv2197!!
Congratulations on being a survivor. And YES...JESUS IS GOOD. You, me and all who have survived are indeed miracles! Wearing pink makeup/nail polish/clothing/the breast cancer ribbon is a show of solidarity in support of EVERYONE touched by cancer. It effects family and friends who watch their loved one suffer. I find the ladies here to be selfless, beautiful and inspiring. I adore pink but it's a challenge to wear it everyday. I admire their resolve and perseverance. Thanks again for joining our project!!!!
