I am a great admirer of Frida Kahlo and her work. Influential Mexican painter, rebel, communist, feminist before the time.
she has this unique look, known and recognized for her unibrows and mustache. I find her beautiful!
A few years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting her museum in Mexico City which was the home she shared with her ??painter husband Diego Rivera.
I must admit that this visit gave me a lasting memory. I was fascinated by the place, the atmosphere, her paintings, her life, her personality ...
I was super disappointed to learn that the exhibition dedicated to the work of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera was postponed in October 2013 following the cancellation by the French Government of Mexico Year .
So, until I celebrate Frida in my own way and yes I turned my sweet friend Elisabeth in Kahlo. For makeup, I mainly used Nars products and I am sure that this original rebel would have been a fan of this visionary, colorful and rock'n'roll brand.
For eyebrows as a raven wing as she liked to compare it, I sticked few hairs and accentuated eyebrows color with Mac pencil Stud.I applied the foundation Nars Sheer Glow color Punjab, on the cheeks the blush Exhibit A and on the lips lipstick Heat Wave that I mattified with the above mentioned blush.Elisabeth no makeup.
Ma douce Arabelle you are back, cela faisait tellement longtemps.
Ravie de te retrouver.
J’en profite pour remercier encore une fois Elisabeth qui a accepté de jouer le jeu, de la transformation et de la photo no makeup.
Mille bisous à vous 2
