Last Thursday, I had something to go to, and they told us to dress nicely. Normally, I don't wear red lips. Like I told Michael, it's sort of like a beacon on my face. I decided to try it for the night, and it turned out okay. I want an actual red lipstick; I was forced to use that stain that I don't really like. For my eyes that I had worn to school, I blended a deep red with brown and gold, with mostly Coastal Scents colors. It took me a long time, but it lasted all day and I liked it. I've always envied those who can pull off red lipstick easily, I think it's beautiful in a timeless way. Onto pictures...
Sorry for the poor quality, it was night time and my camera doesn't seem to cooperate well then. Oh, also: for my hair, I used about a billion bobby pins and just pinned like crazy, sort of like Naomi. It looked alright, I think I should have also curled my whole head first.
Have a good weekend :)

These next few pictures are from Sunday (and I hate that my bra strap can be seen.) I decided on a light eye and dramatic lips. I used a tan color in the crease and a shimmery white on the lid. Lined with brown and same mascara as always. My lips took me 15 minutes and although it looked pretty good, it wore off kind of quickly and it totally dried out my lips ugh. I used a dark purpley red lip color first and then covered it with a bright red. It took a lot of blending but it turned out pretty good. I'm going to get some new lip colors tomorrow. :) I think my hair was my favorite part of this look. I curled all of it and then pinned it up with bobby pins that are like four inches long. I really liked the way it looked (although the pinning took like ten minutes and curling it took like 40, sheesh.)
