Beauty Inspiration: Monika describes Katherine's look as "Old Hollywood Glamour with a modern twist." Katherine's white dress allowed Monika to be a little more creative and adventurous with colour, which resulted in the stunning red lip, setting Katherine apart from the sea of muted, nude lips.Beauty Tip: Monika used PRO LUMIÈRE concealer as a reverse lip liner to perfect the red lip and then powdered between coats to provide staying power.

Melissa Says: I have to be honest, both of these looks appeal to me, because of the emphasis on gorgeous glow-kissed skin and subtly-metallic, emphasized eyes combined with dewy lips that are lush and somewhat sheer. It's a hard choice, but I think if I had to pick a favorite, I'd go with Opulence for its everyday appeal. Then again...for any night out or special occasion I love the lined style of the eyes in Indulgence. Okay, so it's a toss up!
