Inspired by Marilyn Monroe

The past couple of weeks were very stressful for me and I just didn’t have time for blogging or being creative makeup-wise. Although it was stressful I had fun doing the stuff I did. But at the same time I was happy when everything was over and I could take the time to play with makeup. By looking at some youtube videos I was inspired to do a Marilyn Monroe makeup. I know I don’t look anything like she did and I don’t have blonde wig, but still … it was fun!
