Thanks to Jolly J for letting me experiment with my makeup application skills this past Saturday. I am still trying to develop my skills as a makeup artist, so that means practicing on other people. If anyone in the SF Bay Area needs a makeup artist; contact me!
Jolly J doesn't wear a ton of makeup - she doesn't need it - so I knew this look had to be kind of subtle. We were also just going to lunch, so nothing over the top. I was inspired by the color of her shirt, a coral color, so I pulled out this MAC palette from the Fafi rlease last year.
My favorite part of the makeover was Jolly J's amazement at her lashes. She discovered that they were in fact, much longer than she realized. With some curling and Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara, Jolly J exclaimed "I can see my lashes!" when she blinked. Love it!
Here's a small reminder of her naked lashess
