I think chaosagram is right that it's also competing/clashing with my glasses, which aren't very . . . unconventional. I've seen people pull it off with "natural" makeup otherwise, and I was hoping to do that, but it's clearly not working!Lyn Bhbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081735635995970890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-73263235750876418622018-07-01T14:23:48.593-07:002018-07-01T14:23:48.593-07:00Thanks!

I do want new glasses at some point, so I might look into a different style that won't compete with other aspects of my look next time.Lyn Bhbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081735635995970890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-62267905163821267942018-07-01T14:23:10.665-07:002018-07-01T14:23:10.665-07:00Usually I can get away with bold lipsticks (depend...Usually I can get away with bold lipsticks (depending on the shade), but this is just off. I don't really ever do "full" looks, I guess, so maybe it's just not right for me!Lyn Bhbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081735635995970890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-73483604354432849372018-06-19T07:47:22.420-07:002018-06-19T07:47:22.420-07:00Teal is one of those lipstick colors that I've...Teal is one of those lipstick colors that I've wanted to try for years but just can't bring myself to buy. (The closest I've come is NYX Stone Fox.) I think it might look decent on me, but I KNOW I'd never wear it out of the house, and I'm trying to be stricter about not acquiring lipsticks I won't wear at least semi-regularly.<br /><br />I think part of the floating-clown-lips effect comes from the fact that the rest of your makeup is so light. It may seem counterintuitive, but I think Getty would look more natural with slightly heavier (but still neutral) makeup elsewhere.auxiliary beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02704228759091361669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-7665687945138865472018-06-18T15:10:13.682-07:002018-06-18T15:10:13.682-07:00I don't think it lookls bad on you. You could ...I don't think it lookls bad on you. You could try wearing it a little more faded, possible around the house and maybe you would get used to seeing it more often on yourself and then you wouldn't think it looks so scary. Or even try some kind of ombre effect? I know that means an extra step, but maybe you could end up loving the look! Also, not that I have any problem with your glasses, but since you do wear them a lot (possibly always) what about wearing a pair that could go with your lip colour? So that last suggestion means effort and money, but you could think about it the next time you buy some glasses maybe!chaosagramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14838541390440333835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-18459036544094614482018-06-18T14:32:34.450-07:002018-06-18T14:32:34.450-07:00I have a similar color in their liquid matte formu...I have a similar color in their liquid matte formula and I've found that it only looks right when all my makeup is very heavy. It's one that I often use for a night out when I also wear red eyeshadow and a lot of blush. I kind of figure, well, green lipstick is a lot of look anyway, I might as well commit to that with the rest of my makeup. But, yeah, I see what you mean - maybe it looks a bit jarring because your colouring is not too high contrast overall? It's a really pretty colour, though!Clementine / mydarlingclementine.cahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09867565608525797712noreply@blogger.com
