(I am off on my honeymoon until December so this post is a scheduled one. Would still love to read comments and feel free to hit me up on Instagram @emmabovary to see holiday snaps along the way! - Emma)
Each time the warmer weather rolls around it's like a switch in my brain is flicked and screams 'rock orange and peach, baby!' I don't mean to roll with the cliché seasonal makeup but when it works, it works, you know?
I love nothing better than a nice easy neutral eye and a super glowy cheek highlight when I wear peach and oranges on my cheeks and lips, and you can't get much better than TheBalm's Mary Lou-Manizer and the Too Faced Chocolate Palette. Still swooning over the cocoa scent of that palette, by the way, just wish the packaging wasn't so bulky so it was easier to travel with!
Was this look spurred on by my recent Sally Hansen Kook-A-Mango gel manicure? Possibly! I think that peach tones warm up my features enough to make me look healthier than normal, so that is always a positive thing. The Revlon Balm Stain in Rendezvous is seriously amazing - dare I say my favourite orange lip shade?! I've been wearing Clinique's Cheek Pop in Peach Pop a whole lot lately too so of course that had to be rocked in this look.
Nothing like a wee bookshelf shot to enhance a makeup post - what do your bookshelves look like? What is your ultimate orange lip shade?

Gorgeous! I adore oranges and peaches, all year round even! I recently got my hands on Clinique Peach Pop and am loving it.

DeleteI wish I could rock some orange! Hope you're having a great time honeymooning!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure one day you'll come across an orange you love and will rock! Honeymoon was amazing but super happy to be home now
DeleteYou look amazing! Love your lippie. Perfect color which is not too light nor not too dark.
ReplyDeleteThanks Alice - I think it is the perfect orange for me, too!
DeleteOh you beautiful girl! Ultimate orange shade is Innoxa Tangerine, or Revlon balm stain in Rendezvous. I adore Clinique's Ginger Pop and have been eyeing off Peach Pop (because it's the only one I haven't got!) haha.
ReplyDeleteI've been using The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer as an eyeshadow this week. Super glowy summer skin, come at me!
Hope you're enjoying your hols... I have the Too Faced Milk Chocolate bronzer and it's practically edible, I swear.
Oh Dustyn you make me blush. Glad to hear that Rendezvous is your go-to as well!
DeleteAwww...you look amazing. Perfect choice of colors that really looks so great on you. Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jules - I was digging my makeup so hard that day haha
