Modern Day Pin Up Look #2

This is just another modern day pin up look. I was in the mood for a deep red lip. I wanted this look to have hints of the classic pin up look, such as the bold lip, neutral eye and flicked out eyeliner, but I wanted to modernize it with glowing skin, a shimmery eye and a deeper red lip. I hope you all enjoy!
