Sorry about the no post on Friday. I tried to post before I left for my trip early Friday morning but I had internet problems and couldn't get it fixed before my 7:30am departure.
As I mentioned before, I headed down for a weekend trip to Boca Raton, FL for my line sister's wedding. Fortunately for me, MAC's Blond Brunette Readhead collection was available at my store Thursday so I was able to pick up a few...actually more than a few, lol, goodies before I left on Friday.
Since I would only be gone from Friday through Sunday, I wanted to show you a few cosmetic items I packed for my trip. I pretty much spent all day Friday and Sunday driving so I didn't wear anything except moisturizer, sunscreen, and chapstick. On Saturday, I picked out the specific colors I'd be wearing to the wedding in order to match my dress. My boyfriend helped me pick them out! I wanted to wear bright colors but I subdued them a bit so I wouldn't be too stand out at the wedding, lol.
The eyeshadow colors up close. Ignore the labels on the lid, they're for something else.
Here's What I'm Wearing (All MAC unless otherwise specified):
FACE
-Bobbi Brown Face Base (as primer)
-msf natural in med dark worn wet (as foundation)
-msf natural in dark (as a contour)
-Pur Minerals blush in plum adamite
-Bobbi Brown corrector in dark peach
-Bobbi Brown concealer in beige
-redhead msf (not in picture)
-sample of Bobbi Brown foundation that was too light - used to highlight nose bridge
EYES
-rimmel professional brow pencil and anastasia brow powder (brows)
-bare canvas paint (base)
-aquadisiac (lid)
-soot - pro color (outer v)
-stars and rockets (above crease)
-shroom (highlight)
LIPS
-cream o' cerise lip pencil (outlined and filled in lips)
-Urban Decay gloss in carney
Up close pic of the look with my sorority sister Alisa! I also did her makeup using the colors I had in my palette...it was challenging because I actually ended up doing 3 of my other road trip buddies' makeup as well, mainly using the colors I packed by myself!
Me and the besties! I did their makeup too! I went for a more natural look with them though.
Stay tuned for today's vid on YouTube - Collective NARS Haul!
Great Pics! Thanks for sharing.
