OK, this is my first challenge posting and I'm so excited, it was a ton of fun. Not very original and I apologize if it’s a recent repeat but I haven’t been around that long and hopefully nobody will mind giving it another go. Smile

So, it’s summer. I’m loving the sun, beach, sounds and the grilling. What better way to wash that all down with a yummy summer cocktail (or virgin juice drink, if you prefer)! So, let’s create a MMU version of those yummy concoctions!

For inspiration, here are the colors of a drink I made last night as it looked in the glass (strawberry, pineapple, coconut with a splash of lime)

Chloe – Greenhell – Iseered – Glow


Some more inspirational pics:



I’m thirsty! Hope you ladies have fun creating some cool looks.

When I saw the new challenge, I realized that my look actually fits better here than in last week's. I was inspired by my "chocolatier" t-shirt, which has a lot of terracotta and brown tones, but with some green in it too...

So, here is Cookie Party Googoomuck!(could be a yummy drink name Cheers)

Cookie Party (LE -Disc.) foiled on lid
Googoomuck (Rocks!) outerlid, crease, and wetlined
Zinnia (LE - Disc.) to highlight and to blend
DQ Topaz - Bottom lash liner and tightlined on top

Blush: Venus + Luminary cheek glisten

(Lips are done in another brand's lippy)





Sláinte!
Melissa

Oooh, Melissa - I like this alot! You are so pretty and youthful. You can really pull off the greens so well. Smile

I just did one representative of the drink I made last night (which I just had another sip of now Shhhh).

Chloe on entire lid
Tainted Love outer 1/3rd blended to about half way (sadly I did not have Iseered, I will remedy this ASAP)
Greenhell just a dab on the lower mid lid
Glow as highlighter
Black Cherry to line
Rococo on cheeks
Wallflower on lips (I need to find which liner works with this)





And here is a doofy look with my new short hair - Hubby cut it off yesterday and I really don't know how to work it yet.

Love these looks on both of you! That goes so well with your coloring Melissa. I hope you have a fs of cookie party. NUTC, looks nice and tropical but understated (which can be hard to do with tropical looks!). Love Chloe on you.

Michelle and Katrina! Those are awesome looks! Beautiful stuff.

I am envious of how well you rock the icy blues, Michelle.

Great challenge, Katrina! It's making me thirsty! Smile

Love it, Michelle and I just commented on your FOTD post. I have all the colors you used and cannot wait to do this!

Glad the challenge is OK Melissa, I wasn't sure and the board seems pretty quiet these days (I guess summer really is here LOL).

Drinks all around! Smile

I hope I have time for a look! I love blue curacao, and I know there is some green liquor but I can't place my finger on it.

I've been feeling uninspired colorwise lately (no reflection on all of you though), but you ladies look lovely and are giving me lots of ideas.
