Today in monochromatic makeup looks: sour as a lemon yellow. As in all the monochromatic looks I’m doing, every product used (except my foundation, concealer, powder, and mascara) is yellow. Hokay, folks: honesty time. This is the color I feared, and the one I loathed even before beginning this series. Yellow is a great color, bright and cheerful and attention-grabbing... and in cosmetics I hate it. It is fine to have around for a blend, I use it in certain color sets and specific looks without complaint, it has a valid and most useful place in chromatic expression; it just doesn’t really suit my complexion, and using it as the single color in a whole face is simply ugh. Also I had to cheat a little: my only choices for eyeliner and lips were both gold, and while the bright white-gold works on the eyes, this orange-ish color of gold does not suit my lips AT ALL. In this pic, I’m only about half as exhausted as I appear - the other half is trying to keep my eyes from watering in the wind, which I failed miserably at. Next up in series is orange, which will also be hard but not atrocious yay! Also also I desperately need to re-dye my hair because I’m fully faded to lakewitch colors which I adore but also low-grade bugs me. #makeup #monochromatic #monochrome #monochromaticmakeup #monochromemakeup #monochromaticmakeupseries #monochromemakeupseries #monochromaticmakeupchallenge #monochromemakeupchallenge #yellow #makeupduringquarantine #nofilters #unedited (at Cleveland, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CECYV4DJt1U/?igshid=lghn066ed5tr
