GRWM | Reese Witherspoon Inspired Naked Neutrals with MUA Undressed Palette | 2015 Oscars | peachsbeauty

hi there,

Again, I was completely mesmerised by the gorgeous makeup at this years Oscars so I had to try my hand at another inspired look, this time by the lovely Reese Witherspoon.  Speaking of which, I need to see Wild! Has anyone seen it yet? What did you think??

Back to her makeup, I thought her look was just so understatedly beautiful, drawing out her eyes and leaving all the attention to her earrings. It's definitely wearable during the day as well as at a low-key night event. Simply stunning. Hope you enjoy!

I also filmed a GRWM inspired by Zendaya - click here if you're interested!

GRWM | Zendaya Inspired Bronzed Peach with Naked2 | 2015 Oscars | peachsbeauty

hi there,

I've never been a big Awards-watcher but I do love looking at all the photos of celebrities the next day all frocked up and gorgeous which is how I came across pictures of Zendaya's stunning makeup look accompanying her beautiful ivory Vivienne Westwood gown. I thought it was definitely a wearable look, especially for night time, so of course I tried to recreate it as best I could. Please know that I was simply inspired by her and don't think I look like her at all. To be honest I didn't even know who she was until I saw her photo but now that I do, I've got her songs on spotify on repeat!

Hope you enjoyed, love to know what you think and who inspires you to try different makeup looks!

p.s. And yes, I am listening to music while applying my makeup because putting on makeup in silence in a big empty room by myself in front of a camera in front a window is.. not so fun ;)
