In my Monday Makeup series I have chosen some interesting people to sit in my makeup chair and fulfilled my vision for their makeup. Here is the second beauty I want to introduce you to: Iida.

Makeup Monday: Iida

I have followed Iida on her Instagram and blog for quite some time now and I was so excited to meet her and work on her gorgeous features. Iida is a warm person, who’s easy to talk to just about anything. I really admire Iida’s bravery to talk about difficult subjects on her blog and the way she is fearlessly herself. She has the ability to share her everyday life in a relatable and interesting way.

For Iida’s makeup I knew I wanted to use bronze orange tones in her eyes to go with her natural hair color and freckles. I also had a bold lip color in mind for her, which she luckily fell in love with too. That burgundy lip color was made for her! The color is *Revlon’s Black Cherry, which is one of my favorite Fall lip colors.

For Iida’s skin I used the same CC-cream I’ve been using on myself and on other people constantly. It’s *Madara’s City CC-cream, which deserves all the praise I’ve given it. I also used my *Kjaer Weis cream blush, which is another product, that seems to work on so many different skin tones and types. The color is natural, like you’re glowing from within. For highlight, I couldn’t help, but pair it with the *Bareminerals Joy Highlight. Since that has pinky and peachy tones in it, it goes perfectly with that cream blush color.

As long as I’ve read beauty blogs, makeover posts have always been my favorite. There’s just something fascinating about seeing before and after photos – and what makeup can do.

I’ve shared makeup looks done by me before here, but I kind of wanted to bring it back. And what other day is better than Monday, right?

In my Monday Makeup series I have chosen some interesting people to sit in my makeup chair and fulfilled my vision for their makeup. Here is the first one: Gorgeous Rosanna.

Makeup Monday: Rosanna

Rosanna is an influencer, a role model and a business owner. She does a bit of everything: podcast, blogging, videos, instagram and she even runs Miss Helsinki competition. I think what she does with her social media channels and businesses is so inspiring. I can’t help, but respect and look up to her. She is all about empowering women, staying positive and showing an example of what hard work can do.

Rosanna’s joy is so contagious you can’t help but smile meeting her. She was such a sweetheart and trusted me to do her makeup entirely.

For Rosanna’s makeup I had a clear vision: glowy sunkissed skin and eyes with a little blue twist. I think Rosanna’s beautiful freckles and warm skin made the blue really pop and it was just enough to make the makeup interesting, but still wearable. For her lips I chose a rosy nude pink instead of the usual nude lip. That lipstick shade is actually my long time favorite lipstick, and also something I’ve blogged about before. Yes, I still think it’s the best lipstick in the world.

Other stars in the show are the *Bobbi Brown Heat Ray Eyeshadow, which is just a gorgeous golden color, *Madara’s CC-Cream, that brings just enough tint and glow to the skin and obviously the highlighter – that is subtle, yet still very sparkly.
