Hey Crristine,
Thankx for telling us all about the produts esp with their price tags!
Zzainy..
My pleasure, Zainy!
These posts always get me excited!! I just want to get married, already!!
LOL, you and me both hun!
I’m glad you feel me, Christine! Do you have a date yet? I don’t :(.. Everyone keeps asking me, but I just can’t even fathom thinking about thinking of a date.. I’m still in my semester in school!! However.. I have been preparing for it (as in.. buying wedding makeup… a lot of it.. probably more than you need…)!!
I don’t even have a proposal, LOL! We’ve talked about it, but we just aren’t stable financially to get married and all that!
I already know when, though. Late August or early September approximately one year after the proposal!
That’s exciting, Christine! I really like the idea of a Fall wedding, I think it would be beautiful (I live in LA, and I still think it’d be nice) however.. my wedding will be in Florida 🙁 and it’ll be hot and sticky around then. I’ll just have to wait and see. Honestly, picking a date is just going to have to boil down to finding a place that I like and what availabilities they have!
That’s my dream!
Yuckkk, I remember the humidity that is Florida. Not fun!
HELP! I wanted some makeup advice for my wedding makeup. My color scheme will be purple. So I will have different shades along with ivory. My background will be opulent and romantic. I was thinking a plum lip and cheek with a defined eye and mid tone gray in the crease. I don’t know which products though. Thanks!
Hi Mary,
You could do something like Plumful lipstick – soft and sheer; Breath o’ Plum blush – satin-y and softly plum; and a light neutral color (perhaps Ricepaper or Blanc Type) all over the lid and something like Scene eyeshadow in the crease.
FYI – I’m NC 20- 25, dark brown hair and eyes.
