Banner for Tiff James Deen


I'm sooo excited to show you guys an illustration I created for my lovely friend Tiffany of Tiff James Deen! She's super fly and chic, so I thought stunna shades and pastel pink lips were the most appropriate.  This was a really fun project and I'm definitely going to keep doing these for my portfolio, so expect more to come! What do you guys think?

Tangerine Tango

TANGERINE TANGO EYELINER - SEPHORA X PANTONE UNIVERSE 
 LIP LINE PERFECTOR - MAKE UP FOR EVER
 FLORAL BLOUSE - H&M
ZARA SANDALS

CORAL LIPSTICK - REVLON / CORAL LIP GLOSS - YSL
According to Sephora + Pantone Universe, the color of the year is Tangerine Tango. And I couldn't help but notice this re-occurring color in my spring wardrobe. Here's a short photo story of some of my favorite tangerine pieces.
I've also included some of my lipstick essentials. Recently, I discovered Make Up For Ever's lip line perfector and I have to say, it's one of the most genius make up products. Instead of having to buy a different color for each of your lipsticks, this one liner is transparent and can be used with any shade. Ever get "the bleeds" with your lipstick by the end of your night, where the lipstick seems to just smudge outwards? Well this prevents all of that and it's amazing! A must have for any lipstick girl. Another lipstick essential is Lush's lip scrub. I scrub this stuff on before and after applying lipstick so my lips are silky smooth and delicious too!

I've come too the point where I'm getting bored with my hair which only means that I'm ready for something very different. I've been trying so hard to grow my hair out, but I'm extremely impatient and this only makes me want to chop it off! I always do this. (fact: my hair has been short since I was 13 years old) And so, some hair inspiration. What do you think? Should I chop it (like the first photo) or keep it growin' (and maybe add some dip dyed tips)?
