Looking Good for the Superbowl

I’m going to be frank. I grew up in a football house, so I’ve been to many MANY football parties and there’s nothing that kills the mood faster than a girl who comes waaaaay over dressed. Meaning, tons of make up, and an out of place skimpiness to her style.

So here is a mini guide to looking good while not over-doing it while attending this years superbowl party. Remember you are there for a reason, to watch a football game not to distract the boys from it, wait for the commercials for that.

Excuse the pic, the lighting in my house was ideal for photobooth.

Make Up: The best bet is to go with something natural, long pretty natural lashes and a pretty game day glow. You don’t want to actually look like you are wearing much make up, because game day is low key.

Start off with priming your face with a moisturizer. Hit under your eyes with some concealer, I used Bare Minerals Well Rested. Follow with foundation my fave is Urban Decay’s Surreal Skin Cream to Powder.

Use a shimmery nude to cover your lids, I used a combo of Bare Minerals Vanilla Sugar and Queen Phyllis. Line eyes with a thin line of black. Curl lashes and cover with mascara etc etc you know the deal.

I used a shimmery blush and finished off with a mineral powder. There is your basic face, if you’re a Colts fan you can incorporate Urban Decay’s 24/7 Liner in Deviant or for Saint’s fans can use it in Baked.

Hair: Go with a messy pony tail or some loose waves, nothing overdone. For a fun ponytail tease your crown and sides super big. Brush down and put inti a ponytail, letting your short layers fall around your face. and Voila. done in like 3 minutes.

I Want To Play Dress Up

I hate award shows, they make me wish I was rich and had places to wear gowns.

War Time Efforts

The 40’s are on their way back in, but not in the way you’d expect. A softer, more romantic look is back in, less pin up. Head scarves, soft waves, loose pin curls are all making a return! I’m so excited! Think: Goldie Hawn in Swing Shift

I’ll be back later this week with some tutorials!!! I’m excited for this trend.

Warm and Fuzzies

I love the cold for only a few reasons. Most of them are purely materialistic, but so cozy.
