Here is my look! Which is strange because it is summer here.

It was hard to do because I only have one palette because I cant afford good make up.

But good luck everyone! :D

This look was inspired by the holiday lights, at night on my drive home it's usually just getting dark outside. I can still see the faint hint of sunlight fading in the distance and as I drive down our snow covered forest road I can see the twinkling of colored lights. Along with the stars int he sky it makes for a beautiful trip every evening. It could also be done as a "Holidays" look for New Years... fireworks, stars, ect. :)

Thank you Marlena you have inspired me alot :) Well my makeup even though you can't probably see it was a very solid green in the corner and a white all the rest of the lid and my crease color was a soft redish orange. My inspiration was the colors of Christmas green, red and white :)
