Rainbow

Friday, July 10, 2015





By no means am I a makeup expert---but I sure do love to play with the stuff! Lately I've been gathering inspiration from fairy tales. You remember those old things? Mermaids swimming in vast oceans, strong princesses and kind princes, happily ever afters and wondering what happens after the afters---or maybe even the mean ol' monster living under your bed. There's just something so mystical and powerful about old stories~ Don't you think so?

When doing my makeup today I summoned my inner child (which quite frankly didn't need any summoning at all!) and played around with vibrant shades and glitter. What's more magical than glitter?! It's fairy dust in a bottle~

I still kept the shadows soft and let the metallic pigments do all the talking. We usually always go to our staple and good dependable neutrals, but sometimes it's fun to experiment a little. Let your inner child free and don't be afraid to try something new! Sprinkling a little fairy dust in your makeup routine never hurt anyone~

  1. Aww this also made me think about my favorite childhood fairytales. Such an inspiration with makeup. I always feel like makeup is like painting your face and expressing the beauty ^__^
