Today's Make Up: A "Narcissus" In The "Rose Garden"

Happy Friday my lovely readers and visitors, hope you're all having a fantastical day!! :D Now that Friday is almost or is forever, let's make way for the glorious weekend. Yeah? Okay, sounds good.

Another gloomy day here in the AZ, hoping hard for another rainfall but being the the rational Arizonan that I am, highly doubt that. But of course, feel free to prove me wrong you darn AZ weather! Give me raaaaaain!! Nonetheless, I shouldn't be complaining, the weather is so idealistic today. It's just one of those days where you open your eyes, look out the window and just know that it's gonna be a wonderful day. :) And a wonderful day it has been. Had lunch with the brother and did some more Christmas shopping; lots of memories in the making this time of year. I will surely miss times like this when we both are married and have out own families. LOL.

Any who, no lazy makeup today, I went all out. ;) And by all out, I mean the whole face and eyes. Pink is the color of choice today, because why? Haha, I mentioned a couple days ago, if not last week that when I am in a happy mood, pink immediately comes to mind. Pink lips with pink cheeks and kinda, sorta pink eyes to match! Let's get to it!

To contrast with the many days of sporting the no makeup bare face, today's face is a go to favorite. It's that bare face look with the luminous glow I have been raving about. In order to obtain the flawless canvas to create that "bare face" look, several products are needed. In order to achieve the poreless canvas, I used a pore filler on those areas. And for those pesky under eye dark circles, uneven skin tone and redness, nothing heavy duty concealers cannot fix. After the face has been flawlessly prepped, I used a mixture of BB Cream and a pump of Magic Lumi and applied that evenly onto my face with a damp sponge. After that, I just set with powder, contoured with bronzer and applied blush as always. Today's blush of choice is a dusty rosey shade called Rose Garden.

On the eyes, I went for a pinkish nude, complete with a winged brown liner. I then used Perversion to tight line my upper lash line. To balance the pink from my eyelids, I popped more pink on my lower lash line with Holika Holika Jewel-Light Under Eye Maker.

To finish off the pink on pink look, I went for bubble gum pink lips. I absolutely love these NYX Round Lipstick and can go on for daaaaaays about how amazing they are. Creamy, long lasting, moisturizing, pigmented, you get what you see, it's just all things amazing packed into this lipstick. Like I said, Narcissus is a bubble gum pink, vibrant in color and in my opinion, will look good with any skin tone.

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Y'all enjoy your weekend now and be safe! Stay warm while you're at it. Please come back soon!! :)
