Wow, you are gorgeous. And these colors are so intense but so beautiful. I love how you blended the colors together.

Very pretty - love these colors! I think the highlighting you did above your eyebrows in this looks a little harsh in contrast with the rest of your face - like the concealer shade is just a bit too light? Just thinking (or typing) out loud

I purposely use a concealer that's about 3 shades too light for above my brows (youll notice it on almost all my other fotd's). Just something I got in a habit of when I worked at MAC and all the other girls did it too. Everyone thinks i'm crazy for it but i love it

how do you apply your gel blush? I've been interested in it for awhile, haha, but it just seems a little difficult for blush (which with powder just seems so easy and obvious).

It's super easy with a 188 brush. just BARELY dip the white bristles into it. a little goes a LONG way. that's why it's called "just a pinch" lol. it will last forever.

Oh I totally get why you do it - it defines your brows so nicely. I like to do it as well, although getting a lighter shade for me is near impossible (NC 15 lol!). I did notice it on your other FOTDs - I think the reason it stood out to me here was it goes up so high above your brow. Anyhow it was just an observation.

yeah i see what you mean after i looked at it again. i was being sloppy, lol.

go tanning! lol suggestion though if you can't get darker than an nc15, put the concealer up there, but set it with blanc type or even gesso but go lightly with that one as you know.

I'm super anti-tanning so I might try the later suggestion.. That's actually a really good idea... Especially since I love Blanc Type as a highlight.. Thanks! Sorry for totally derailing your FOTD! lol

I'm gonna have to try that. It seems like you get such a beautiful air-brushed finish when you use the gel and creme-based blush. Very pretty!
