So to kind of go with my monochromatic purple that I did, I decided to do something similar but with orange. It's also been my way of using lip colors that I've been neglecting lately.
I hadn't used my Hot Orange shadow by NYX yet, so this was a good opportunity. The consistency and color pay off were awesome - though with NYX that's usually the case, so no surprise there. Looking at the pictures now, I wish I had contoured my nose. I feel like my nose area looks a little flat, blending in with the sides of my face. I also didn't realize until now that I had forgotten mascara on my lower lashes
It's funny how I never used to do that, because I didn't like the way I looked with mascara on them... And now I don't like the way it looks without!
