Whit's Spice Girl Look Contest

Whoopee...
another makeup entry...
this time for Whit's Spice Girl's Contest

I had fun with this one, not just because of trying to come up with this look with how blurry my inspiration pic is...but the most fun part is watching all the Spice Girls videos & singing together with it!.. & the whole time i am doing this post i am in Whit's page because i missed listening to their song...

Yes! i do love Spice Girls before...& i still know all of their hits by heart... So i was also sad when they broke up...

Anyway, as what i said, i watched all of their videos & i decided to go for Emma Bunton's look on the video of "Let Love Lead the Way"...(it's that obvious,huh?..hehe).
So i watched the video like 5x just to get the idea of her look, her eyes, her face...the highlighting, etc...same with her hair...

I don't have green tube top...much more a silk one...XD

I think everybody's makeup is really nicely done (as always)...i was thinking first of trying out Mel C or Mel B's look because both are amazing...purple & silver.... but then since I like Baby Spice before so i just decided to stick to her makeup...but now i look up to Victoria.
XD

So, i had to post a pic so that i would have something to look at...(yes,i got it from youtube..you can even see at what time i put it on pause.. XD)

This is her whole look:
This is her eye makeup:

Then here is my attempt in creating it...
Looks like i got too liberal in the greens...but hey...i enjoyed doing this! XD
Most of the time, cameras dont pick up the color so i made sure that it would pick up the color...

Much as i would like to be like Emma, i just can't..lol
trying to be a model too..but failed... XD

Lesson learned:
Nude lips really do compliment dramatic eyes...i know for a fact that its a rule, but doing it is a different thing compare to just knowing & experiencing it...

Now who says, plus-size women can't have fun?I had a blast doing this!
