Vibrant Blue Makeup look with Sobe Botanicals

I guess this is one way to wear blue without looking like an 80's whore. :-) Actually, I'm only saying that because that's a common reason why some won't wear blue eye looks. Don't be afraid of blue! Just try wearing it in the right tone to go with your skin, or at least try wearing it with another colour to make it wearable.

  1. I think blue looks are beautiful but I like it a lot more on your eyecolour than mine. But that doesn't keep me from wearing it anyway. And you're right, you don't HAVE to look like and 80's victim but you just have to know how to wear it a little bit. :D
    Looking good, Blix! (By the way, did you quit NTMS?)

    This look really suits you. Love the lipstick too
