Modern 60's Inspired- Yellow

I have been obsessed with 60's fashion and makeup lately. I guess I can blame it on Mad Men, but the truth is I have always loved all things retro. The clothes, the style, the makeup, everything was just so much more exciting than now! When it comes to work, I give the client what she wants, which lately has been what I like to call "the Kim Kardashian" look: Smokey eyes, bronzed cheeks, and glossy nude lips.

When it comes to my personal style, I tend to stick to either Pinup style makeup, or Mod 60's makeup. Maybe I should be more adventurous and wear more color, but I find this retro style of makeup not only easy to achieve, but also flattering on me, so I end up wearing it more often than not. For this particular look, I used a bright yellow color to make it more suited for spring. I love how it came out.  Here is the look:

Modern 60's Inspired Makeup

I haven't done a makeup tutorial in a while, it's been too long. I have a toddler running around the house, which leaves me with very little time to write. May I add, my daughter who is only 16 months, is already showing interest in makeup. She loves to use my brushes to give makeovers to anyone willing! It's too cute. I've had this makeup look saved on my computer, for a couple of months now, and today I am finally writing a tutorial. Keep reading for a tutorial.

 This is a 60's inspired makeup look that can be worn without looking like you stepped off a time machine. I added a bright pink lip to give it a more modern and fun feel.
