Oh that would have been cool! I'm not sure if I want to grow mine out yet. It's growing but I might cut it again? lol Always on the fence 😛@heartsmyface
@heartsmyface OMG, I love it! That blue wing is insane and compliments your hair so well. And your skin is an absolute glowing perfection. I'm glad you had fun with the challenge.
@TKLJ Thank you darling:). All that glow is just my skincare not quite soaked in yet. It always looks it's shiniest after a peel and product drenching.
I've been in a rut just like you've been, but it's more out of a need to be quick with the beauty stuff everyday. A weekly challenge around here sounds like it would be a great idea to keep the creative juices flowing if you don't mind starting one:). I wouldn't be able to participate everyday but would certainly love contributing to a weekly challenge thread. We could pm you with theme ideas;);)
@heartsmyface Oh man, I'm no good at running challenge threads. I only participated in Karen's IG challenge because the first one was something relatively easy and with few "rules." The second week's challenge is a more definite look, so I need to put in more effort to figure out what I'm gonna do. One cool thing, though, is that she's basing these challenges off looks she liked in magazines. So we could all do our own personal challenges where we go through magazines or Pinterest and actually try to recreate looks or put our own spin on them, instead of just bookmarking the image and never looking at it again. (I'm not the only one who does that, right? My Pinterest is a graveyard of pictures I'll never look at again.)
@TKLJ Ha, well, I suck at keeping threads alive. Everything I've ever started I got bored of or distracted by something else and I let it dwindle away. Maybe I have deep seeded commitment issues. 😄
Youre not the only one who does that! Mines a graveyard of mostly hairstyles and recipes. Cooking and hairstyling are the two things I do the least but want to do more of.
i really do need to be challenged so maybe I'll make a resolution of posting my inspiration picture and then whatever evolves from it. Once a week. I'm certainly not getting any better by doing the same neutral look everyday.
I haven't posted in this thread in forever because I mostly just wear the same kinds of looks—really, the only thing that changes is my lipstick color, which is why I hang out in Lipstick Playground. But I did this last week and had a lot of fun. Karen from Makeup & Beauty Blog is devising weekly challenges on IG, and her first one really inspired me: a single bold element on clean skin. It broke me out of a rut, got me to be creative, and made me get over insecurity about my skin (breaking news: I'm a human with pores, redness, and other imperfections). 😉 The challenge's hashtag is #mbbinstachallenge, and I'm thinking about how I'm going to complete this week's look. Come play!
FACE
Glossier skin tint in Light
Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector (I usually wear Nars RCC as well, but thought that would be too much for this "clean" look.)
Tarte blush in Celebrated
Nars contour in Talia (only the light side, and with a very light hand)
Glossier highlighter in Quartz
EYES
Tom Ford cream and powder shadow in Golden Peach
Glossier Boy Brow in Blond
LIPS
YSL lip stain in Rouge Remix applied messily with my finger and then blotted way down to a stain, then topped with Glossier Coconut Balm Dotcom
That's a really elegant way to do something bold and unique - you look so lovely @TKLJ!
Glowing! Your eye colour really pops! ❤️ Werkkkkk 😃
Haha, I applied so much highlighter stick. @jesscheems
I'm really feeling this!!! This look is utterly stunning in its simplicity! I really hope makeup takes a turn in this direction as a general trend:)
really feelin' it. i love these tones on you. i love this lip, too ! what fun.
Thanks @jemly. It's a little Bowie-esque ... but, like, for those of us who can't draw lightning bolts. Bowie after he removed 90% of the makeup. 😄
Hm I'm really digging this! I'd join but I'dforget and be lazy by the first day 😛 But I'll be cheering you on!
Thanks, @Blackwhiskey. I'll be honest, I'm not really looking forward to this week's challenge, which is "kitten flicks and glitter lips." I just don't wear eyeliner well, and can't do a cat eye. But I'm gonna make myself ... somehow. Maybe I'll only photograph one side of my face, since my wings are never even. 😄
xD
Your skin looks GORGEOUS! and i LOVE the colour on your eyes. I love seeing looks like this because I can get stuck in a rut too, even though I play with different colours I still tend to use the same techniques so this inspires me to push the boundaries of my comfort zone more!
@EmmyLove I know what you mean about using the same techniques. I basically do some sort of smoky eye daily, because it's easy to blend out mistakes. 😄 Thank you.
You're so luminous and dewy! Very pretty and fun, you look great @TKLJ !
