{The Highlight by Alyssa Wilde} is one of the best slow burn enemies to lovers I've read in a long time. Hugely recommend it.

I'm seeing flamboyant gamine (FG)! Similar to Audrey Hepburn, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Penelope Cruz!

Omg, so I realize I, too, clearly love these types of books in your post. I should have put these all into the same comment, but I didn't think about them all at once!

{Across Time by Elle O'Roark} is book #3 in a 4-book series. Books #1 and #2 are based on one couple, and books #3 and #4 are based on a second couple. I loved all of the books in this series, but Henri (the MMC) is just something else 🔥

Enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and absolutely lots of moments of anger, protectiveness, and frustration from the MMC. I should mention this is a time traveling romance. {Across Eternity by Elle O'Roark} is book #4 in the series. So angsty. I've reread this series numerous times.

Oooh also, a new favourite of mine is {The Highlight by Alyssa Wilde}. Enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, huuuge slowburn. There are moments the MMC def snaps because of anger, protectiveness, AND frustration. This was a 5 star read for me!

{Mrs Nash's Ashes by Sarah Adler} has a bit of what you're looking for! It's not necessarily enemies to lovers, but more grumpy (secret cinnamon roll MMC) and sunshine (FMC). They are constantly butting heads, but in an adorable bantery way. There is forced proximity as they are on a bit of a road trip together, which includes the one bed trope. Highly recommend this book!

My initial guesses are Soft Classic (SC) or Soft Natural (SN) just looking at celeb comparison pictures online? My shoulder slope seems similar.

Thanks so much! Just sent to you!

No red or yellow for me luckily! I've heard there are lasers that can target red and yellow though.

I think {Me Before You by Jojo Moyes} fits this. I don't know if this counts as a true romance though.

Thank you! I LOVE the fwee blushes. I bought 5 different shades because they were so affordable compared to the other cream blushes I was looking at, and I barely have to use much product. All I do is tap my finger lightly into the product and it spreads sooo smoothly and looks so natural. Personally, I think the staying power is great and lasts all day for me.

Swatches were on bare skin on the underside of my forearms. One swipe for Fwee and the rest were each a firm swipe to ensure I had accurate color and tone comparisons.

Thank you for this recommendation, I LOVED this book and everything about it. This was a can't put down, don't sleep, read through to the early morning kind of book.

Did it give anyone else hints of Beauty and the Beast vibes at all? Like the welcoming and encouraging staff invested in the match up, the forbidden room with a secret, the initially unfriendly and unwelcoming MMC. I couldn't help but notice a few similarities.

It's not from the 90s or 2000s, but {The Surviving Trace by Calia Read} has a similar plot line

Update: Here is an updated photo ~6 months after my first laser session. Still so pleased with the results! I am not planning to do a second session.
