Cherry Blossom Girl Makeup Look

I felt very inspired today by the most beautiful flower in the world, Cherry Blossoms. 

I wish I could take a walk through a maze of Cherry Blossoms and become lost for a little while. 

I also wish I could skip over this 100 degree plus weather to much cooler weather that arrives in the fall and then return to spring. Spring and fall are my absolute favorite seasons.

I wanted this look to be textured with brush strokes that has the look of an actual painting with fine details.

Drawn on the notepad is the Cherry Blossom makeup sketch that I dreamed up and had to put down on paper so I wouldn't forget come time to re-create the drawing.

Some nerdy information that I found on Wikipedia!

Japan gave 3,020 cherry blossom trees as a gift to the United States in 1912 to celebrate the nations' then-growing friendship, replacing an earlier gift of 2000 trees which had to be destroyed due to disease in 1910. These trees were planted in Sakura Park in Manhattan and famously line the shore of the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C.

I give many thanks to Japan!

My Playlist of songs that I listened to while creating this look:

1. Memoirs of a Geisha Soundtrack - Going to School
2. Air - Cherry Blossom Girl
3. Coldplay - Lovers in Japan
4. Air - Alone in Kyoto
5. Incubus - Aqueous Transmission

XOXO,
