I am wearing pink lipstick in this photo. Pink is a subtle and soft color on me and I like that for my complexion. Make sure that when you chose a lip color that it lights up your face.
The softness that pinks can give my face is so alluring. I love this look on me, it’s not in your face it’s a soft glow. I used bareminerals cupcake and added Fran Wilson frost on top to give my lips that romantic glow.
The sun was really bright when some of the pictures were taken so mixed it up and took some pics inside.
The Look
1st Step
Add to cleansed face your moisturizers and primer of your choice.
2nd Step brush on my bareMinerals foundation in Golden dark with SPF 15 and add your Josie Maran concealer where you need to on your face.
3rd step -Eyes- ELF Sweet face eyeshadow
Add this bright pink shadow to lower lid
4th Step brush a thin layer of bareMinerals Beautiful Lisa eyeshadow over the lower lid over ELF Sweet face.
5th Step brush on your bareMinerals Flawless Definition Mascara
6th Step bareMinerals Big and Bright Eyeliner in Midnight on the lower and upper line of eyelashes.
7th Step Brush Blush – bareMinerals Pink Pearl to the apples of your cheeks. (smile and instantly the apples of your cheeks will come forward for you to brush blush on your cheek).
8th Step Josie Maran Argan color stick for lips and cheeks in Pink Peony
lips
bareMinerals lip gloss – cupcake
Fran Wilson lipstick- Rose
Tarte Pink lip stick
I love layering lipgloss over lipstick. It makes lips look so healthy and luscious.

In the first pic I only added pink lipstick and in the other photos I experimented with eyeshadow and layering of lipgloss and lipstick.
Finishing
Mineral Veil – Love it!
My hubby bought this eye color collection from QVC.com for me for Christmas last year. I feel like a beauty chemist because I can mix so many colors to create some fantastic shades. I have so much fun and I just found out that it’s not available any more in this configuration so this was a wonderful gift.
This post was in response to MJ of Fierce Rock Your Beauty Event March 9, 2011.
Thanks MJ for coming up with this idea of having fun with the color pink.
Oops almost forgot my Dooney & Bourke handbag is Pink too!

Thanks MJ. Yep, hubby sure does have good taste. I enjoyed it thank you for coming up with the idea.
