It seems like forever since I've done a blog post! I've had so much going on, and I have been working with a new camera. I've been tweaking the settings to get the images just right, and it has been a lengthy learning process! I should do a blog post of all the makeup "test" looks that I've done and why I didn't post them. It would be a rather impressive collage of strange pictures! I've never been a student of photography, but it is a science that I've gained a great deal of respect for.
Anyway! I loved the results from this latest look that I did, so I am happy to post this makeup look! (Finally!)
For this week's makeup, I am using the BH Cosmetics Tropical Shimmer Palette. It seems to have all the colors that I am craving this time of year. I love the fresh pastels grouped with neutrals- it's a perfect palette for Spring and Summer. (And here in Arizona, Summer is our main season .☺)
I wanted a colorful look featuring a hint of blue on the lid, blending that out to a deeper crease color, then softly transitioning that out to a warm tone.
I really like how it turned out. I hope you do too!
