Although I am not a huge soccer fan, I have been watching the world cup with my French husband to whom the World Cup is a huge event. Luckily France won their first match…woohoo!

It’s been impressive for me to see how the fans express themselves with makeup. In fact makeup has made it’s way into even a sporting event as a way for fans to show their support and get into the spirit of the World Cup. Although I am not attending any games, I am tempted by the gorgeous manicure ideas by Madeline Poole. If only I could jet over to Brazil…
