Hey friend! We made it to Caturday, woo hoo! In the spirit of all things fabulously feline, here is Rosie wearing a sparkly gymnastics leotard to brighten up your morning.
Speaking of bright things, I’ve been trying to push myself just a little with makeup. Yesterday I wore a lil’ slice of shimmery green liner (Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Freak) for a tiny peek of color on my lids.
I started by lining my upper lash lines with a black gel liner and an angled brush, and blending a single shimmery shadow cream stick, Laura Mercier Strapless, on my lids for a touch of definition. Then I traced the edge of the black liner with my green pencil. Easy peasy!
I paired it with minimal skin and lips because 1) that’s how I roll these days, and 2) it’s been really hot, and just the thought of full-on base was suffocating. I might try it in the future with a more photo-friendly foundation, etc., but I think there’s something very cool about minimalist skin with some color on the lids.
Anywho, I’m going to try it with some other colors soon. I hope you give this liner a go!

I love the green! I bought a lavender Still liner and I’m not sure how it’ll be with my coloring but I wanted to try it.
Darn, that Victoria Beckham shadow stick has sunflower seed oil. Sunflower causes more problems with ingestion for me than topically but I’m really allergic.
