Senior portrait makeup

Senior portrait makeup- I used to be wondering about this the different days due to the fact Chelsea and I (She feedback right here on the blog! Say hello to her sometime. She speaks French, has a few furbabies, and she takes circus training for fun.) have been speaking about the make-up we wore in our excessive college senior pics.

I used to be searching at mine recently, and I don’t suppose I was once sporting any concealer at all… I used to be so now not carrying the two matters I put on each day now — actually, the three matters I put on each day.

I didn’t fill in my foreheads (they’re totally immaculate), no concealer (the awfulness, LOL!), and no mascara.

Like…what?! Who goes for their excessive faculty senior pix except for any mascara on? THIS GIRL.

And I cherished make-up again then. I don’t comprehend what I was once thinking.

I’m fairly certain I had on a little basis and some powder, due to the fact that’s what I did returned then, and I assume I used to be additionally carrying blush…

I had this color — I suppose it used to be with the aid of Covergirl — that was once this peachy brown matte, and the lip!? The funny element is, that coloration is something I’d definitely put on now. It’s a matte coppery reddish-brown. I want I ought to have in mind what it was… I assume it used to be both Revlon and Covergirl.

I nearly didn’t put on these oversized pearl earrings. I love accessories, however, I’m usually no longer a massive earrings character (although I do have my phases), and my mom, who lives for jewelry, used to be like, “You HAVE to put on some jewelry.

YOU HAVE TO.” She left me some selections to select from, and I ended up grabbing what was once closest, which befell to be the oversized pearl earrings, now not surely wondering about like, how these pics would comply with me into my historical age, LOL!

As I’m searching at this image now, the rings had been sort of big, right?

Anyway, what make-up did you put on in your excessive faculty senior portrait? Do you remember? Were you full-on glam? Did you put on nothing however lip balm? Were you carrying any make-up at all? Let me comprehend in the comments.
