I used some warmer colours in my makeup today which is sorta rare for me. I subconsciously always reach for my cool (and lately matte) colours but I thought I mix it up. It was another cloudy day and I adjusted the setting of my camera for the closeups but i think it washed out the colours; they're kinda more dull, even my eye colour shows as dark brown instead of the golden honey brown :( oh well, hopefully we'll get some sunshine tomorrow. Meanwhile, I should go finish up my cooking so I can hit up my MAC freestanding tonight!

    I really like the warm eyes on you, it brings your eyes out (:

    And how in the world do you come up with these beautiful combinations day after day? I look at my make-up in the morning trying to think of what to wear, and then I run late and don't wear anything at all! ):

    thanks girls, you all made my day :)

    Arezu - I honestly come up with my colour combos very randomly. Most of the time it's something I see in the nature, in my own cloths or it's just that I wanna use a colour I haven't used for a while and think of what I can do with it. I do sometimes take inspiration from other ppl's makeup too but that's prob just 25% of the time :)
