Recs for school-girl look?

I'm flying back home to my Fiance after 3 months (had a weird temporary living/family situation), so I really want to look my best at the airport and knock his socks off, haha.

I'm going to wear a red plaid mini skirt, and a nice tee of some sort, and boots, and maybe fishnets (can't decide how ho-ish I want to go). He is really into the schoolgirl thing, so I want my make-up to match that look. Not too trashy, though, and not too overdone, because it will be during the day, and he prefers me more "natural" looking.

I've been looking on youtube through tutorials and and such, and I can't quite decide what route to go.

I was thinking a medium gray smokey eye, or some kind of black smudgey liner thing with a frosty highlight and pink lips, or...I don't know. I would prefer to stay with neutrals/grays, I think, especially considering my outfit. So no color, and no bronzes and golds, I wore that last time I got dressed up with him.

It's hard for me to find a gray/black smokey eye tutorial that doesn't apply the crease color too high, and doesn't make me look overdone, though. I am pale, but have dark hair, so it is difficult to find a balance between too light and too dark.

Should I forego the whole smokey thing altogether maybe and do a "natural" cut-crease-ish look with flesh-tones?

Or maybe some kind of super shimmery champagne ish color on my lid (any recs?) with gray or something in the crease? And lined lips? Playboy-ish looking?

Any suggestions and nerding out about makeup would be really helpful and appreciated. Many thanks-

heyy,

Instead of doing a full smokey (because it is the daytime..) what about a half smokey look? I posted a blog about it here: taupy smokey blog

to make it a little more school girly you could instead do a lip that has a hint of more pink and more gloss

let us know what you decide to do

Wow, well no competing with Lauren here lol she's just way to good!!! But i was just going to say, if he likes you more on the softer and natural side when it comes to your make up, i would just do some smudged black liner with LOTS of mascara and some sweet pink cheeks and some wet, pinky glossy lips
yes.gif
idk if that's really what you may want to go for but just a small suggestion

Hope to find out what you decide to do!

i agree with this! school girls don't wear much make up.... but the sexy smokey liner with glossy pink lips would look 'slutty school girl' perhaps!

Try Cosmo l/s by MAC. I think that would work better than the frosty wet look. Besides, he's going to end up kissing it off anyways! hehe
