A Hint of Blue Amongst the Browns

This is sort a miracle...

1. I actually put on a full face of makeup for work

and

2. I woke up early enough to put on makeup for work


Working in a conservative environment really limits the color range you're allowed to wear. I stick with neutrals to be safe but wanted to a little something extra this time, hence the hint of blue


Bobbi Brown Basic palette + Visee Blackish Forming Eyes B5 palette. The blue on the top right of the palette was gently blended in


It comes out looking grey blue-esque. Falsies are Shisem XN and no they were not worn to work


MAC lipstick in Cremecup combined with Revlon Beyond Natural gloss in Peach

I may be guilty of going back to sleep for another 20 minutes after doing this look...

XOXO, M

P.S. Like the new look?
