My Natural Look...

Somehow turned into my "beach" look for Ms. Mimi's "Natural Look" contest. (Natural look for a So Cal/beach gal?)

Here are the three items I used:

♥ Dramatic Parfums Dramatic Volume Volume & Curl mascara
♥ MAC Bronzing Powder in Refined Golden
♥ MAC Lipglass in C-Thru

and my freebie item:

♥ Benefit Play Sticks in Jump Rope



I also used Garnier Fructis Style Wet Shine Gel and True Blue Spa "Tahiti, Sweetie" body lotion...that stuff smells yum and very tropical island-like...and I'm drinking Vitamin Water "Energy" (Tropical Citrus)...yummm.

Hmm actually I'm not really sure how natural I look...but eh. Since I was limited to three items, I chose items that would multi-task. The Benefit Play Stick became my foundation/concealer/powder even eye makeup base, the MAC Bronzing Powder I used on my cheeks, eyelids, eyebrows, even a little on my lips as liner (and cleavage! muahaha)...and the MAC Lipglass I used on my lips and dabbed a little under my eyebrows as highlighter. The mascara...was my mascara (I thought about making it do double duty as eye liner but decided it'd make my look less natural).

My real life three-item natural look would be eye liner, mascara and lip gloss with powder as the freebie...but for photographic purposes, I didn't go that route.

Who knew my makeup playing and camera whoring would ever have a purpose? But there are so many contests going on...I love it! Now the challenge is just really finding different ways to take pictures with my one-handed camera skills.

Happy SUNday, my beauties!
