Orange & Green FOTD

[raquel13]

Yesterday someone critiqued my FOTD as being too cool for my skin tone (I can't help it, I love my cool colors better! Wahhhh!), so I thought I'd try a warmer look today. While I don't love it (I keep feeling like I stole my 10th grade English teacher's "Autumn Woodland" palette), I thought I'd post anyway...

This one's blurry, but I like how my hair looks in it... hehe

Try warming up some pinks to avoid feeling like Thanksgiving is impending. I used bright fuchsia w/melon over it a couple of times, and the melon really warmed up the bright fuchsia and didn't look fall-ish.

Thanks everyone! I think I'm going to try an orange & fuchsia look next. I don't know why I always equate warm with earthy tones... maybe that's why I like cool better, I just keep forgetting that I can do warm brights, too.
