Getting Ready for the Wedding: My Makeup :) and FOTD
Submitted by Sara on September 7, 2009 – 5:22 pm23 Comments
So I was a bit unsure of what to do on my own face for the big day. But that morning after waking up, showering and running to the salon as well as other last minute errands I didn’t feel like I had a lot of time to go back and forth with any ideas.
I was planning on wearing a dark brown party dress to the wedding and me being the girl who must always match her makeup to her clothes ( yes I do! everyday:) I picked up my MAC Spiced Chocolate quad (to match the tone of the dress.) and put it to work. Whenever I use these colors I always tend to use a darker lippie but instead decided to contrast the brown and used MAC Lickable lipstick instead and loved the way the colors looked together!
For those of you who have not seen the Creamsheen Lickable Lipstick color, it is the most amazing bright pink! It looks wet on your lips and the color is so intense! Next time your in MAC just swatch it. You will see what I mean. The picture below doesn’t do it justice!
With the stress of getting the bride ready I didn’t take to much time on my hair. But less is more was definitely true for me yesterday.
The pic above was in the beginning of the day and the last pic after the reception.

Love the lip color. It reminds me of a smashbox color I have, but the smashbox one is matte. I wear it when I'm feeling PINK!
