My bright for the day is....Neon Orange!

I also used Tarte's blush in Blushing Bride, Hourglass Ambient powder in Luminous Light as highlight and my usual naked eye besides a few coats of mascara. :)

I absolutely LOVE this blush on you. Your skin does indeed look luminous!!! And thank you reminding me of Neon Orange - have to wear this one soon!


My MU for today is - *drumroll* - NOTHING! That is really rare for me. But I did have a mini facial today so of course I went there without any stitch of MU on (felt very strange, I normally alwayas wear some MU when I go out of the house). It was at the Skinceuticals counter where they have a tiny cabin tucked behind the counter. The lady who did it was incredibly nice, and I got a very nice massage with their products. They also have a TM with SPF50 she applied to my face and which I bought immediately because I want to use it during the honeymoon - I don't usually feel comfortable in my naked skin, even at the beach, so a slight tint will come in handy. And apparently I'm doing something right in my skincare because the lady was so surprised when I told her my age! She thought me to be about 10 years younger. Hah! She loaded me up with samples too. A really good experience.
When I left, I applied some Clinique chubby stick, but that's it. Not even mascara. And I feel comfortable with that. Yay!

I'm so sorry to hear this hon! It was so nice to hear that she had such a wonderful impact on your family's life! It must have been a welcomed consolation for her to son to see that. It's nice to know that although she didn't get to see it, the people left behind to miss her know they are not alone. You are such a sweet person!

Good for you Anneri. If things aren't good underneath, what's on top doesn't always look so good! Sounds like you're 'Honeymoon - Ready.'

Happy dance about that one!!!! Very cool!

my look today was a bit of a snore...but i had a meeting with the client and another consultant, so best to keep it low key... ;)

yesterday i wore asian flower for part of the day at work - i might keep that in my bag in case of similar meetings etc during this month where i need to keep things low key.

i'd like to post some pics but for some reason i'm unable to from my phone. i will probably have to email them to myself, download to my laptop and then post....

​So today I had a 3 PM dental exam & cleaning. I wore minimal eye makeup and NO lipstick, but I still wanted to fulfill my effort to wear bright pink and a product
that I purchased but have not yet used---so after my cleaning (love having my teeth cleaned) I put on YSL Rouge Volupté Flower Crush LS Fuchsia Tourbillon 31.
​The formula is so amazing and the color is certainly bright---more of a yellow based pink. I have Chanel Pink Tonic on my nails and it happened to be a nice match.
By the time I got around to photos it was dark. I took one of the lipstick anyway because it's such a pretty vibrant pink:

sounds like a great combo! i hope you add pics... :)

i love seeing your lip swatches! bright pinks look so good on your skin tone.


i'm always surprised when my boyfriend says anything about my makeup or clothes. like you know where you just about fall over backwards from the shock?

i think it's rare that he comments, but i suspect he always notices ;)


your look sounds very pretty meka. i love galapagos!

i was swatching those kiss and blushes in sephora a couple of days ago. thank goodness they were closing and they kicked me out of the store! ;)


i find the bite beauty colours extremely rich and potent! i've gotten a few samples before but not sure which one to *bite* the bullet on...


i love that shade...if its the one i'm thinking of - matte?

you must have looked lovely!

how did it go? :)

i find when i wear bright makeup or clothing, it's the little girls who appreciate it very much...i usually get little shy smiles and waves or curious glances in the subway/on the street.

very nice! looking forward to seeing a pic!
beautiful!
and i am envious of how good your eyes look without makeup!

awesome!

oh i hope not! i haven't had a chance to get that one yet. i wonder if i should get that one or carthage first?

I owe you one Aradhana---that was yesterday's look

I only have Schiap but I looked up Carthage and it's gorgeous. Carthage seems to have a little more red in it. You really can't go wrong w/either of them.

I usually have to scroll down, and change my phone from mobile to desktop to post pics from it. It used to let you in mobile mode but a few months back it just kinda stopped letting you for some reason. I always just thought it was my phone being lame. :/

The site was a bit wonky today. I initially had a hard time posting. I guess with so much traffic volume to the site there are bound to be some glitches.
