Friday FOTD with Blue from Prescriptives
Happy Friday everyone!
Are you all dolled up and ready to head out for some Sex? .. and the City, I mean!
I’m super excited to check out the movie this weekend but as I mentioned yesterday, I can’t go until tomorrow. So to alleviate my anxiety, I tried to spruce up my makeup today with subtle touches of color. Looking at the photos, it’s not as bright as it is when I’m out and about, but you get the idea - yes?
It’s inspired from Prescriptives’ Urban Heat summer collection photo since I want to punch up my summer makeup with a bit of color. I really love the teal eye liner. I was expecting it to be more of a blue, but the teal actually suits my tastes better as I think I can use it in more fun looks aside from the traditional navy.
What’s your makeup for today? Are you sassin’ it up for the weekend? I hope you are!

I LOVE the blue! How does it apply? Staying power?
Hope you have a lovely weekend! (Psst, we should totally chat sometime…)

Thanks Brittany!
I’d love to see you in blues too - Hope you’re having an awesome weekend, girl!

Hi Connie!
The staying power of this blue is honestly really good! The pencil is not a traditional eye pencil, it’s kinda like a MAC Technakohl pencil with a little silicon-like consistency. You should definitely try it
Hope you’re having a great weekend as well! Did you see the SATC movie? I’m going to see it tonight

Today I am (gasp!) NOT wearing any makeup. I know, I’m terrible! But I am wearing Bobbi Brown’s new Yogi Bare lip balm, so at least my lips are soft!
Hope you had a great weekend!

Hey Jamie!
Gosh, I loooove no makeup days
Did you have a great time in Boston? What did you think of the movie? We gotta dish!

Hey Nikki!
Prescriptives is definitely creeping up on my radar. I really want to try their custom color foundation. Are there any brands where you are that do custom mixes?
Hope you had a great weekend!

Hope you had a great weekend too!

Hi Lilan — I went to see the SATC movie this weekend — so cute! What did you think?

Hi Connie!
I saw the SATC movie too and thought that it was cute but maybe could have been better, don’t you think? I’m curious about the buzz that’s starting up about a sequel - do you think they should do one?
Hope you’re having a good week so far!
