Colorblock me baby!

Hiya pretties! Okay so, not gonna lie, I'm not a huge fan of bright colors on my face. However, after peacock turquoise wasn't lookin' too bad, I decided to start experimenting! Some lime green here, some orange-y lipstick there... la la la. Here's the clincher : I only had to use one palette for my shadow, blush, and lip color! 






Dun dun dun! Behold the ultimate summer makeup! 

That lovely coral is the exact blush/lip color I've been searching for! And I've had this quad for what... a year? Just dabbed some of that coral on my lips and finished with gloss to keep it from getting powder-y and yuck. 

For a more casual look, I'll probs skip the lime green and just wear the turquoise as liner with the coral blush. Ohhh-kay, and the lips too :) why not, right? These colors scream sun-kissed to me! XO

  3. I'm actually wearing turquoise liner today :) But I love this look! There's nothing more fun than colorful eyeshadow for spring. And it's pretty amazing how many different looks you can get from one palette!
