Sunday Snow-Day FOTD

A happy snow day to you all! I know that the snow has caused people problems, and the moment it happens everyone seems to complain about it, but for me, snow is something magical. It's just beautiful, and there is that silence, y'know? The snow silence - first thing in the morning when you open your curtains with the bright white light streaming through, its just perfectly peaceful. I'm getting soppy over snow, yes, but for me it makes everything magical and I become a child again! Even if my silly old work won't give me the day off tomorrow despite piles of snow making it hazardous to leave the house - they clearly underestimate the power of snow. So here is my snow day look and adventures!

 As it all started!


 My polar bear Mia and her sister Tiana playing in the snow.

So because it was all white and wintery, I decided to go for a snow look with my make up using light silver, sheen eyeshadows and light pink lips. I used my beloved Naked2 palette 'Verve' and 'Pistol' eyeshadows to create this light silver, icy eye make up. I love 'Verve' as a colour; it doesn't look that silver in the box but when it is actually on it lightens to a bright silver sheen - perfect for a bright-eyed look! I used the 'Pistol' which is a more typical, darker silver shade just to add a bit of contrast on the edges, and then blended it all together. Then for a bit of a rosy glow, I used thrrrob over my cheeks and a bit over the nose to give me that flushed look. Ta-da! My snow look ready to go be used in the winter wonderland that was my road! I think my snowman date appreciated it!

Did you play in the snow?

Love,
