Watermelon Pink

Re: Watermelon Pink

How about a brown sort of smoky eye, you could keep it cool-toned if you're going for silver and use warm golds and bronze colours if you're doing gold jewellery and that shade of pink would look absolutely gorgeous on lips and cheeks to complete the face.

I personally love most of the makeup tutorials done by Tanya Burr and Farah Dhukai on Youtube.

Btw, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Hope your special day is everything you've wanted and more

Re: Watermelon Pink

Thank you guys!!! <3

I am going to do a trial tonight on myself to see how it goes...will keep you all posted!

Re: Watermelon Pink

^^ if you're going the glitter route what glitter did you buy? I love glitter but don't own any lol need some recommendations!

Re: Watermelon Pink

I love the idea of watermelon pink, its such a lovely colour, and love the tradition in your in laws. Making a gharara is such a skill, and sadly one that's dying out. I'd also add accents in whatever colour you like. What material is the gharara?

I'd go nude/light pink lips and gold or accent (colour of your choice on eyes).

I think a deeper purple - would look nice and different to the more common green/pink combo.

Re: Watermelon Pink

For makeup, I think something with gold accents would look nice, rather like this:

Re: Watermelon Pink

This look by Pseudonymous would look quite nice as well (with the eyeliner a bit thinner if you’re keen on a more natural look):


I think the peachy pink shade on the inner corner of the eyes would look lovely with the watermelon pink colour of the outfit without being too “matchy-matchy.”

Re: Watermelon Pink

go glittery Reha........and show us!!!!

Re: Watermelon Pink

I would use something like Mac's Expensive Pink with a gold eyeshadow and a lipstick that matches the dress!

Re: Watermelon Pink

Friday was the big day...I wore the gharara which fit like a dream...lol. She made it Lucknow style and put gota on the knees...it was adorable! I am going to save it and pass it down if I have kids!

Makeup:

I used the Naked palette to create a gold, shimmery eye but slightly smokey brown.

I used MAC's Dollymix blush and NARS Taj Mahal as a sight contouring shade.

For my lips, I mixed up Girl About Town and Fixed on Drama to create a pinkish, reddish color.

I used long extensions, straightened them out and had them swept to the side and coming out over left shoulder.

It was awesome...thanks for the help guys. I will share pics as soon as I get them!
