Please excuse the fact that half my hair is in my face, baby Jesse was my stylist this morning!
I kind of hated my face today. Do you ever have days like that? I looked tired, my skin could have looked a lot better and by the time I realised I didn’t like my choice of lipstick it was too late to change it.
That said, I do love this eye shadow combination. Aquadisiac and Stars & Rockets are beautiful shades in their own right but I think they’re even more fabulous when paired together. The application was quite subtle this morning but they can be packed on for a lot more intensity too. Sometimes I switch the placement round a little (for example by wearing S & R on the lower lash line) but it’s definitely a combination I favour in the warmer months. Can you make out that it matches my earrings too?!

This look fab! I haven’t touched my Aquadisiac for absolutely ages, I think you’ve just inspired me to pick it up again for summer 🙂
Your skin looks beautiful really fresh looking.
I think coral from models own lipstick would look great with this look.
I have done a post on it this week if you want to check it out (photos etc)
It’s a true coral and matte really nice and bright. xx
You look beautiful, hun, and I noticed the matching earrings right away! I think this eye look would also look gorgeous with a pink lip, something mauvy or sligtly muted? xxx
Beautiful!! You’re inspiring me again with your eyeshadow combinations. I have that problem all the time with choosing the wrong lipstick.
I agree with Rocaille and think either MAC Modesty or Syrup would look lovely with this look.
Love the eye combo, it looks beautiful 🙂 xxx
@ElephantJuice Aquadisiac is so pretty! You must dig it out, it’s perfect for the warmer weather.
@Nicoletta Thanks hun, although I’m not convinced about my skin! I’ll def check out the models own lippy if they stock it near me.
@Rocaille You’re so right, why didn’t I think of that! I think I’ve just fallen into a bit of a coral lipstick rut at the moment, need to switch it up a bit!
@ModestyBrown So glad you’re feeling inspired, us mums have to help eachother out! I’m glad I’m not alone in my lipstick failures!
@Laura Thank You!
