Makeup Monday: Retro Glam

When I sat down to create this look I had every intention of doing a light eye and a bright lip….obviously that’s not what it turned out to be! I got a little carried away in the eye shadow department, but LOVE the finished look! It really made my eyes seem much larger than they actually are & that’s nothing to complain about! A bright lip would’ve been too much, so I grabbed this melon lip glaze & apricot blush to finish the look! I don’t often match my blush & lip colors, but it works so well here and enhances the little bit of a tan I got last weekend!

PS I’m obsessed with this new mascara! Run to the drugstore & pick it up now!!!
