Senior Year Photo Shoot Makeup

My younger sister is going to be a senior in high school! I cannot say how weird that makes me feel. She’s still a tiny, adorable 10 year old who liked to watch “Fated to Love You” and “You’re Beautiful” with me!

Alas, she is getting older without my permission! *sniff sniff*

And she’s grown up to be quite beautiful! A local photographer spotted her and asked her to model for their company. I’m so proud that everyone can see the woman she is becoming.

The company doesn’t have a makeup artist on staff at the moment, so I did it for her. I mostly used my sister’s makeup so this will be a high end look with drugstore makeup ;). I will list the products at the end of this post.

Isn’t she gorgeous?

When she was thinking about her styling, she decided that she really wanted dramatic eye makeup. Karis thought it would make her look more like a model. I don’t think she needed my makeup to look like a model, but I think it turned out great!

What do you think of this makeup look and the photo shoot?

 

Rainbow Manicure

Can’t decide which color to paint your nails?

Me either ^_^. And what says Summer and happiness better than rainbows?!

Really though, I just couldn’t decide on a nail color. Teehee~~~

I do really love this manicure! It makes me happy every time I see my nails. It even brightens up my day in the office!

It’s ok, my coworkers think I’m a kid still anyway, so I can get away with almost any style hair or nails ;).

This is what they look like up close.

I think the little gems add a nice touch ^_^.

Here are the polishes I used.

  • Rimmel London 60 Seconds Polish in Stand to Attention
  • NYC In a New York Color Minute Quick Dry Polish in Spring Street
  • Pure Ice Polish in Excuse Me
  • Essie Polish in Shake Your $$ Maker
  • Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Polish in Brisk Blue
  • Sinful Colors Polish in Candy Coated

You can tell I’m a super patient person when it comes to my nails, right?

Honestly, most of the nail polish I own is quick dry. And that’s saying something because I have a shoe box full of nail polishes. I think I have a problem~.

How do you feel about the rainbow mani? Have you done it before?
