in my luteal phase & need to remind myself that I can in fact be creative and cute, and im actually not always a troll under the bridge 🧌 #makeup #beauty #makeupinspo #makeuplover

5 days agoEdited to

During my luteal phase, I’ve found that experimenting with different makeup colors really helps lift my mood and boost my creativity. I’ve been totally obsessed lately with the blue-green color combination—it’s refreshing and unexpected, really making my eyes pop. Pairing it with a mustard grunge yellow on the eyes adds an edgy, modern twist that stands out but still feels wearable. One of my favorite parts about these looks is how versatile they are. You can dial up the intensity for a night out or keep it subtle for everyday wear by adjusting the saturation of the colors. I also can’t stop wearing this lip combination I discovered; it perfectly balances the boldness of the eye makeup without feeling overpowering. If you’re going through your own luteal phase and looking for makeup inspiration, I recommend embracing these rich, contrasting colors. They not only suit the season’s vibe but also help convey a more playful and confident side of yourself. Don’t hesitate to step out of your comfort zone—remember, makeup is a form of self-expression, and experimenting can be incredibly uplifting during times when you might feel less inspired. Keep a small palette with these shades handy, and watch how a swipe of color can transform your entire outlook.
