Thursday
Black cotton/ramie blend scoop neck short sleeved empire-waist sweater from Old Navy, white stretch poplin trousers from Caslon, red stone necklace from a boutique at the beach, silver cuff, black leather thong heels from target.
Hair is washed with KiwiReflector, conditioned with Suave Professionals Volumizing conditioner. Allowed to air dry 90% and then a bit of Sexy Straight Hair's Shine On! mixed with Nexxus Texxtur applied and blown straight. A bit of BioSilk to the ends. hair this time is more auburn of highlights than the cherry of the Spring.
makeup is Smashbox Photo Finish primer, L'Oreal True match foundation in C3, concealer in W4-5 (though it's not doing much against my allergy eyes and bags), Body Shop bronzing powder in Light on face where the sun hits, Revlon ColorStay shadow quad in Neutral Khakis – ivory in inner corners and along brow bone, khaki on lid, chocolate in crease, along lash line and in brows (I broke my eyebrow powder). lashes curled and DiorShow Unlimited mascara in black applied. On lips is Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Pink Afterglow.
And no, I am not sad (this is to the gentleman who emailed me), I just feel like a fool grinning to a camera at 7am some mornings. Call it lack of caffeine, not a lack of good things in my life. Speaking of good things, the biggest one is my 6'5″ tall hubby ๐
Love the pants! Great look ๐
Yes, C means cool, they also have Neutral and Warm. I have read many places that yellow-based concealers help more with covering dark circles – the main reason i use concealer. I also feel that the C3 (which I own) is too pale of a concealer for me for some reason and looks a bit ghostly on my skin. I started with C3, but then wanted a warmer and slightly darker concealer, took in my C3 and used it as a base to judge the other colors and ended up happy with W4-5.
I’ve been wondering about the L’Oreal True Match… I notice you use the C3 foundation (with C meaning Cool, yes?) and the W4-5 concealer (W means Warm?) – why the difference in number/letter? Why not use C3 foundation AND concealer? Just curious before I purchase my own…
I love how you work that silver cuff. The pairing with the red stone necklace is great.
Love this look esp the necklace!
Don’t you just love tall men?? ๐ I think you look great – your hair color turned out gorgeous and your makeup is pretty. The black and white has provided some inspiration for my own outfit today! Thank you.
