Makeup Monday

I am in love with the blank canvas effect of bare and nude skin that became a fashion statement lately. Paled out lips, bleached brows and hyper-plain skin define the trend. Do you like it or do you miss tanned skin beauty?

  6. I love how it is easy to maintain. You don't have to worry about smearing lipstick or mascara.

  9. Never been much of a fan of tanned skin myself, the whiter the better! I adore a washed out pale slightly sickly look as it can really emphasis the clothes the model is wearing. Maybe that is just me though... ^.^

  10. I'm so into the nude face look! I'm glad pale is in but I wish someone would tell the orange skinned girls that it's time to exfoliate and embrace this amazing trend.

  14. I love the paler skin as long as you don't end up looking like you've been ill for a week ;-) It also makes sense on a runway, considering it's the clothes you should be looking at. I'm not sure if I like the fact that everything is paled out though, incl. eyebrows and lips. I think for a real-life situation it might be a bit too much..

  15. I like the retro vibe of the last look. It reminds me of old photos in my mother's high school scrapbook.
