I hope everyone had a terrific weekend! Jared was home for a quick visit before heading back to Tallahassee for the last week of session, yay! We spent our time with friends and family and it was full of food, laughter, basketball, babies, and pool time.
So even though I’m a lover of makeup (obvi), now that I’m a walking Groundhog Day, running around taking care of Samuel and doing laundry every 5 minutes, I tend not to spend as much time getting ready in the mornings as I used to. Luckily, almost-7-month-olds don’t judge…I at least hope not. I love a quick and easy pop of color with my makeup, pulling off the minimal look of everything else, so I’m loving the fact that the Pantone Color of the Year is Radiant Orchid. This is the year to go out of your comfort zone and try the bold and daring look! Here are my current fav products featuring the ‘It’ fuchsia color.
Benefit Lollitint / Sephora + Pantone Universe Radiant Orchid Lipstick / Clinique Cheek Pop Blush Plum Pop / Clinique Chubby Stick Pudgy Peony / Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm 110 Coquette / Maybelline Vivids Lipcolor Hot Plum
Tip: If you want to just dip your feet in before jumping into the orchid craze, try a product that’s more sheer like the Chubby Stick, Revlon Balm, or Clinique Cheek Pop) so you can build the color to your liking.
