 I'm on vacation again, woo! This one was rather spur-of-the-moment beach getaway with my whole family so I'm really enjoying having us all together. :)
Today I did a makeup look using Darling Girl and BFTE Cosmetics; it's another neutral-with-a pop-of-color kind of look because I was seriously lacking inspiration for what to do, lol. I like how it turned out though. Keep reading for the details...

I'm not wearing anything on my lips, just a little lip balm. The look was a bit darker and smokier in person so I didn't want to overwhelm my face with lipcolor. 
After I finished the look, I used some of BFTE's Ornamental eyeshadow, a pale gold, and patted it on the middle of my lids and lower lashline just to add a little dimension. 
Poolside Party is a blue/turquoise shade but due to the gold/green sheen and also the extra gold I used over it in this look, it turned out looking quite greenish on my skin. The color does shift though; if you look at the full face shots, you can see on the nearest eye it looks green, but on the far eye it looks more blue. I love it and recommend checking it out if you haven't yet!
Thanks for reading!♥
