Unusual Smokey Eye


Gosh, I used SO many colours on this one, i'm not sure if i can tell you exactly what i did :)

Basically i started do draw the shape with MAC fl in Blacktrack, blended and worked with black and purple e/s to soften the edges...this is what i remember:

Illamasqua UEC130
MAC Select Cover-Up in NW15
Illamasqua PF135
MAC Powder Blush in Pink Swoon

MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
MAC e/s in Carbon
MAC e/s in Fig. 1
MAC e/s in Vanilla
MUFE e/s 92
i'm sure i used more, but you get the idea :)
MAC Plushlash Mascara in Black
Browset in Girlboy

MAC Cremesheen in Petite Indulgence (LE)

Neutral Eye and bold Lips



I love vampy lips - i think they go very well with every skintone, as long as you feel comfortable wearing bold lips you should go for it!
Usually i don't really like the "intense lips - neutral eyes and vice versa"-rule but sometimes it's nice to make one facial feature the center of attention :)

What I used:

Illamasqua UEC130
MAC Select Cover-Up in NW15 mixed with Jojoba Oil
Illamasqua PF135
Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Disobey for Contouring
MAC Powder Blush in Strada

MAC Next to Nothing e/s (LE) - any light shimmery colour will do - lid up to the browbone
The Body Shop e/s in 07 in the crease
MAC lll in Classic Cream top Lashline - a shame they dc it :(
MAC Dazzlelash mascara in black
MAC Browset in Girlboy

MAC Currant Lipliner
MAC Mattene in Bing (LE)
excuse my sloppy lipline - i was in a hurry, i am usually paying more attention :)

Halloween




Hope you had lot's of fun on Halloween! :)

I love Halloween - to be honest i would dress myself all year around like that but people would think i'm crazy, it's the perfect excuse for strong, extraordinary make-up.

Well, i had to work on the 31st but i got the permission to get a little over the top :)
The make-up isn't THAT bold, if you ignore the black brows and the heavy contouring it would make a fabulous fall smokey eye.
I decided the evening before what to do with my face and my hair was done in like 5 seconds right before work because i had to do SOMETHING! :)
and i added white hairspray later...i had none at home so i had to go and buy one :)

Here's what i used

MAC Select Cover-Up in NW15 where needed
Illamasqua PF105 all over
MAC Dark Edge e/s to Contour

Cheap Black Eyekohl
MAC Artifact pp
MAC Sketch e/s
MAC Cranberry e/s
H&M Red e/s (i bought this years ago, but it's just a bright red)
MAC Point Black lll on brows, the waterline and top lashline

MAC Creme d'Nude l/s in those photographs - i wanted something lighter so i just used foundation and powder later on and dabbed some red lipstick onto the inside of my lips.
