Do you smell that? Mmm, the aromatic scent of
Fragrant Cloud rose? No? You're in front of a computer screen with no access to nature? Okay fine. I know we're still in the dead of winter
and that smell is just well-wishing, but it is quite pragmatic to believe that the springy aroma of flowers have arrived as this winter season has been
one of the warmest yet. As a matter of fact, my makeup was inspired by
the deep, raspberry, and organic shade of red the Fragrant Cloud rose is renowned
for. Dreary and stark winter days call for a punch, and Girl About Town by Mac delivers
flawlessly. Its satin texture is so smooth, so creamy, it’s become my go-to
lipstick. Pairing it with Taj Mahal
by Nars makes it an action-packed threat, a force to be reckoned with. The
courageous hue works well with any and every skin tone and has become a
preferred choice of pink in countless makeup bags.
In my usual fashion, I didn’t bother to
accentuate the look with eye makeup as I did not want to take away from the bold
color I’d chosen to adorn my lips. Plus, lips are major in my book! They either serve
to complete the look or they can solely be the look. You can dress them up with a sultry red for a
fabulous night out or calm it down with a soft rose to accompany a casual outing at the park. Lipstick
is the Chuck to my Blair, the Karl Lagerfield to my Chanel. Basically, lipstick
is what makes my makeup me. It’s a reflection of how I’m feeling on a particular
day and I’m rarely seen without it.
