Makeup
We Made the Impossible Happen: 7 (Work-Appropriate) Days of Glitter MakeupThink glitter makeup can't coexist with office life? We thought so, too. Until this happened |
Glitter Makeup Challenge: Day 4 The Look: I had Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow, $32, in Metallic Emerald, and I wanted to try something different with colorful/sparkly makeup. So I applied it like eyeliner to my lower lash line to add soft definition. Then, of course, I had to have a little extra glitter eye shadow up top. I used Bobbi Brown Sparkle Eye Shadow, $35, in Cement on my lids, and then added a light dusting of E.L.F. Long-Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow, $3, in Confetti to really catch the light. The shimmering shadow is great for layering over your boring matte eye shadows to give them a little extra oomph.
Friend's Opinion: The first thing she said to me when we met up for dinner was, "I love your eyeliner." (Also, our waiter poured me a little bit extra dessert wine, so I'm thinking I should always wear glitter makeup when I go out.)
Office Reactions: I was told that I looked like a mermaid, which is pretty much the only compliment I ever want to hear.
Comfort Level: I forgot my lunch at home, so I was a little nervous to walk to the salad bar down the street. No one gave me any weird looks, though, so after lunch I was feeling pretty secure.
