Here’s what Blueberry was like so you can see what I mean:

As you can see, this uses these colors to make almost a metallic look.  This is great for the summer when you want to look totally glam, yet appropriate for the weather.

It’s time for another outfit to match. If you’re like me, you want your makeup to match your outfit. Here, I’ll show you a Polyvore outfit to match what I think looks great with one of my previous makeup tutorial looks.

I’ve decided to put together some outfits based on my Tuesday Tutorials makeup looks.

Today, it’s all about Sunrise Eyes. As you may recall, it was an ultra pretty look featuring colors of red, orange and yellow. Read the rest of this entry »
