You know what I think is super cute? Freckles. I adore the way they smatter across cheeks and noses, adding personality to a person's face. They make me think a pixie has been munching chocolate and then blessed a person with chocolaty-lipped kisses. I wish I had them. But, sigh, I do not. Thanks to the power of makeup if we freckle-lovers really wanted to we could create the illusion of freckles, kind of like how people fake a beauty spot on their upper lip area. But why stick to pixie kisses, when we can go total next level and embrace the hot new trend and bedazzle ourselves with sparkly, glittery, metallic freckles. Seriously, how gorgeous do they look? It's like a unicorn blew a spitty kiss and the remnants turned to happiness on your face.
What's especially enjoyable about this trend is that you can be as extra or as simple as you're comfortable with. So you can go crazy with the glitter and glue or you can take a metallic eyeliner and just do a few dots across the cheeks and bridge of your nose.
Of course if you're not confident in your dotting abillities you can always pick up a DIY pack - like Mr Kate BeautyMarks. These hand painted metallic freckles work like a temporary tattoo, and can be cut and applied in a way that suits and feels comfortable for you. Best of all? Mr Kate ships to New Zealand, so it's not another product we can swoon over and then sigh when we realise we don't have acces to it.
Now the powers that be, the great 'they', are touting this gorgeous sparky metallic freckle look as the must-have look for festival season. But you know what? I reckon they'd look just as cute while you did the vaccuuming, washing and general life stuff. Why wait for an excuse when you can look like a unicorn sneezed on you now?
So... are glitter or metallic freckles your thing? Are you on board? Or is this another trend that you're happy to let pass you by? Chat away!
This look is too cute for words! Not for me, but I know some it would look amazing on
