...kind of a Greek Goddess Inspired look

I'm calling this my " kind of a Greek Goddess Inspired look". I wore this look to a kind of a Halloween thing that I went to with my friends on Friday. Half of the people wore costumes and the rest didn't lol. As you can see in the photos below, it doesn't exactly look like a Greek Goddess with the gold leaf crown, white toga and all that jazz but I promise I did my  makeup with a Greek Goddess in mind. I think of a Greek Goddess with a flawless and bronzey face, light gold, silver eyes and nude lips with a hint on gold. There are so many variations on how do it but this is just my own take. I hope you like it.



I wore a loose and off the shoulder white shirt instead of a toga. For accessories, I wore chunky and layered matching necklace and bracelet instead of a gold leaf crown and a the messy and wavy hair of course for sexy look.

-Almay Line Smoothing concealer (as a base on the eyes)
-Mac Mineralized Skin Finish Natural in medium deep (so set the concealer)

...just a little cam whoring I did as I played with the different settings of my camera. The makeup changes depending on the lighting. I like the photos without the flash because it doesn't wash out the colors.




I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!!!
