Spring Cheek Challenge
Style Awakening  💇🏽‍♀️✨⏰

Spoiler

Welcome to the Spring Cheek Challenge!!!  I'm looking for that seasonal refresh.  For the first SPRING Cheek challenge, (I know right.. How is this the first...I couldn't get past IYKYK, "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking."), I want you to look towards personal moments and icons (person, celebrity, objects) for inspiration.    Look to the Gawds, dahhhhhlings.   And zhuzh it up with an outfit, or hair accessory or anything you think that's relevant.  I've declared this the "year of using my pretty things, " and I'm inviting you to join me!


The INSPO behind the INSPO:
This was fueled by caitbird's brilliant inspo board for Belle, pdxxxx's elite breakdown's of icons, the creative choices of Cissy63 during the Winter Wonderland cheek challenges... And again, Zendaya.

BUT, WHEN YOU NEED A PUSH/INSPO, AS ALWAYS.....I GOT YOUUUUUUU

Here are the weekly themes:

Blush Crush (Apr 8-13)
Meet me in Miami (Apr 14-Apr 20)
Sakura Slay (Apr 21-Apr 27)
Candy Coated Coquette, Pastel Version (Apr 28-May 4)
Candy Coated Coquette, Mocha Mousse Version (May 5-May 11)
Sunday Best (May 12-May 19)

I made a bunch of mood boards; feel free to use them or remix/remake them into your own.

You really wear the Sakura slay colors well 🩷😍 @makeitup305 The pink tones look really fresh and light in these looks. Oooouh I like your custom blend of your liquid blush, it's double LE, lol. 🙃

[makeitup305]

@CynthieLu I had a lot of fun with Sakura week for sure. Some of my favorite looks so far!

[caitbird]

@Titian06  this blush looks so pretty, I think it's perfect for this theme!

[Titian06]

Thanks, @caitbird !  I immediately thought of this color! 😄

[makeitup305]

Perfect color for candy cheeks @Titian06 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @makeitup305 ! 💕

[CynthieLu]

Now that blush is soo bright and beautiful looking @Titian06. And very candy inspired, like bubble gum. 🫧🩷

[Titian06]

It's not as bright as it appears, @CynthieLu .  Beautiful is right, though!

[PrettyPaint]

@Titian06 That looks gorgeous. Are Dior blushes nicely pigmented? I don't think I have any Dior blush.

[Titian06]

@PrettyPaint - I have two of these blushes, DIOR Rosy Glow Blush 001 Pink being the other.  Neither one is very pigmented.  I have to apply three or four layers to get it to show decently.  Pink lilac is less pigmented than the pink.  The blushes are nice if you don't mind the work. 😄

[PrettyPaint]

@Titian06 Thanks! I had read some reviews that said the same thing about the pigmentation. I don't think I'd mind that as long as it eventually starts to show up. 

[danielledanielle]

Oooh, DIOR Rosy Glow Blush 063 Pink Lilac is so pretty! @Titian06 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @danielledanielle !  The hint of lilac in this pink is so pretty!
