Weddings by the Honey B: Bridal Shower Makeup

I love wedding season! And I'm not talking strictly about attending the ceremony; I am talking about the entire journey to the wedding. The events leading up to the wedding (like the bridal shower, the wild bachelorette party, the rehearsal dinner) are just as much as the wedding itself. For a bridal shower I attended this weekend, I wanted to create a look that was fun and colorful. The bridal shower was held at a lovely restaurant in Pasadena, so I went for a colorful, silvery smokey eye. I started with a dark base using my NYX jumbo pencil in Black. Using my 239, I patted on the silver pigment from my MAC Surf the Ocean pigments. I blended MAC's Carbon eyeshadow into the the outer v of my eye and Cranberry in the crease for an interesting pop of color.  I used MAC's Bamboo in the browbone and lined my eye with MAC's Blacktrack Fluidline. I blended in my MAC bronzing stick in Billionaire Bronze to contour my cheeks and topped it off with Rock & Republic's Seduce with MAC's MSF in Light Flush as a high lighter. To finish my look, I used MAC's All Mine lipstick and Chanel's Glossimer in Wild Rose for a rosey mauve lip. One set of Ardell Wispy lashes for a dramatic yet subtle look and I was ready to go! Picture below is my Bridal Shower FOTD.
