Introduction
Last month I purchased the A Few of My Favorite Things palette/set from Too Faced cosmetics, and sung its praises in my review here. One thing I highlighted specifically was the versatility of the palette, and the breadth of looks that could be achieved using the twenty included shades. Today, I bring you three such looks, all under the scope of daytime-appropriate looks. While I think it's totally awesome to rock super-dramatic makeup during the day, I know that many people (myself included) most often keep those on reserve for nighttime occasions.
The first look utilizes many elements of Few of My Favourite Things (eyes, cheeks, lips) to create a super typical neutral/brown daytime look that I tend to gravitate toward. The second, with my mother so graciously modeling, is a very work-appropriate, sophisticated look that uses mostly matte eyeshadows from the palette. The final look is a slightly more edgy choice, that is still totally legit for everyday wear. I am smitten with the shade in the palette called Bluff, and this final look just pays homage to it, keeping the rest all very neutral.
In other news, today is actually my last day of being a nineteen years old. My last day of being a teenager. My last day to be stupid and make mistakes and get away with it (sort of). So I better go enjoy that while I can. Thanks for reading and enjoy the makeup looks!
