Senior Portraits

This past weekend I had my senior portraits done by one of my lovely Stephens Sisters and I wanted to share some of them with you as well as share my makeup tips for a photo shoot!

Mad Men

This is a look I did yesterday to film a scene from the TV show 'Mad Men' for my film class.  I also have to replicate this look exactly on Friday, hence why I took so many pictures.  These are only half of them!  I hope you like this look!

I read the part of Peggy who, in the Pilot, is conservative and plain (for the 50's) so that is how I dressed.  I wore flat boots, a black pencil skirt, a red scoop shirt (which happens to be my best friend's shirt), and a wide black belt.  I do own some 50's style dresses but they didn't go with the character.  I wore simple faux pearl studs and faux pearl necklace to complete the look.

Revlon Photoready BB Cream- Review

 I had mentioned a while back that I had been wanting to try a new BB Cream and since my other one ran out, I finally could!  I have fallen in love with the Revlon Photoready collection and so it seemed appropriate that I should give their BB Cream a whirl.
The Logistics: It comes in a silver squeeze tube, with a twist on black cap.  There is 1 Fl. Oz of product in the container.  This retails for $8 to $10, depending on where you go. I do find that to be a bit pricey for so little product, but if it works and looks nice who am I to judge?
My Reaction: This is a lot thicker than the Garnier BB Cream that I have been using, which I find nice.  It blends into the skin nicely and has moderate coverage.  I do like that the finish is a bit more matte than the finish of the Garnier BB Cream, which is more of a dewy finish.  There is no scent to this product which attracts me to it even more.  I am the color Fair/Light, the lightest one they offer because I am a Paley McPale Face.  All in all, I really do like this product but for the price I think I may stick to my Garnier one after this one because the price is around the same but you get a fair amount more of product.  Have you tried this BB Cream? What do you think of it? XOXO
