Look: My Cousin’s Wedding
Posted by Heather | Filed under Bobbi Brown, Lips, Looks, MAC, Neutral, Yves Saint Laurent (YSL)
My little cousin Mallory got married in the little town of Abilene, TX. I was in her “House Party” which means pretty much nothing, but I got to walk down the isle with a wrist flower and be special for a night because we’re related, which was really nice. It was a freaking beautiful wedding. Parts of it were simple, and parts of it were exquisite. I was asked to wear a black dress, so this is the makeup I decided to wear with the black dress, evening, 450 people attending wedding. Simple, matte, neutral eyes and dark lips. At first I went with a dark silvery lipstick (Chantecaille’s Luna), but my husband said it looked like it was for a funeral. So I switched to the YSL #41, which I felt was too bright. So thank goodness I brought that black gloss - it was so perfect to darken up the lip color! As my mom said,” Who would’a thunk?!” She even wanted to try some on top of her mauve lipstick! Haha!
For this look I used:
- Eyes: UDPP (primer), Painterly PP (base), Bobbi Brown Nude Palette, Bobbi Brown Black Ink liner, Plushlash mascara
- Cheeks: Eversun BPB
- Lips: YSL Rouge Pur #41 l/s + Lancome Pila Black lipgloss
