I'm posting it on Valentine's Day, because it's a very romantic flushed and rosy makeup look. I had this very flushed sheeny cheek in my mind and I created the rest of the look around it. There's just something romantic about this look to me and I feel like it would work for many skin tones and eye color.

Rosy Spring Makeup
3 Mar 2018
I was inspired to do this makeup look, when I saw Hailee Steinfeld's Capital Letters Music Video. This was her first look in the video in a hotel room and I loved how glowy and simple it looked. She has even slightly lighter warm brown eyeshadow paired with rosy cheeks and lips. So I created my own version that is perfect for spring. I'm sick of this snow that keeps on hanging out in my backyard, so I'm already in the spring mood. Hence the spring makeup look.
Rosy Marble Nails
14 Nov 2016
Recently, I've been seeing marble nails every where. It looked really pretty and easy enough to do. However, you know me, I am not a fan of cool colors and typical white grey marble looked too boring for me, so I decided to make it more rosy and warmer.
Firstly, I applied a base coat. Then I used rosy nude nail polish on all the nails except ring finger - Kiko Nail Lacquer in 372 Nude.
I took a piece of sponge and applied darker mauve nail polish in random areas - Avon Nail Enamel in Mauvelous. If you take a more dense sponge, it will look more uniformed. Unfortunately, I had one with bigger holes and it didn't come out as I anticipated it to.
For the marble cracks and pattern I used black nails polish - Maybelline Color Show 677 Blackout. If you want it to be more subtle and more monochromatic, I'd say use a dark grey instead of black. With the help of nail striping brushes I drew wavy lines. It should look thicker on some parts and thinner on others. I think that you can be a bit messy here. It doesn't need to be perfect.
Then I took gold metallic nail polishes - Essence LE Lights of Orient Nail Polish in 01 Golden Gate To Orient and went over these black lines with it. I tried to make black lines thinner. Gold lines give it a bit more dimension and some sparkle. I also applied it all over the ring finger.
I added a diamond shaped golden stud on the ring finger just to add something something. Marble usually has a high shine and I created this by using shiny top coat - Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. All finished! How do you like marble nails?
