Grande Lumiere

I used to use my Ben Nye Grande Lumiere palette all the time. Probably because I got it when I was first getting into makeup and wanted everything BRIGHT and SHINY.
Looking at that palette really makes me think about how much my makeup style has changed. I'm still head over heels in love with bright colors and glitter but it seems to be in a very different way.
At least I like to think that there's more attention to the details in the looks that I do now compared to the "one bright color on the lid and another bright color in the crease and I'm done"-type of looks that I used to do.

And so I give you a quick look inspired by the 17-year-old me* with the help of my beloved Ben Nye palette!

Neo Orange, Poison Plum... Love.

Rather simple, but fun and bright at the same time. It seems that's a new makeup love of mine...

Diva

After doing my eye makeup today, I reached into my lipstick drawer and pulled out... MAC's Diva! I love wearing shades like that!

And it was all yellow

I didn't get any good full-face pictures but I really wanted to share the eye look anyway.

It's simple, yellow and I think it's a quite nice way to make super bright colors wearable :)

Glitter blues

Hello there! I'm so glad you're still following the blog even though it's been a (very long) while since the last update.

My skin problems haven't cleared up at all but at least I have some good days in between the bad ones, and so I've decided to get back into the colorful world of makeup on those good days! :)
