Glittery Purple Look + Static Pigment Swatches and Review

So that's my look for today :)
The last time i did this look i applied MAC fuchsia Glitter on top but it all ended up on my cheeks during the day so i skiped this step - if you have transparent Mascara use it as a base for glitter and it will last forever, but i don't have any so no Fuchsia glitter for me today :)

What I used:
Illamasqua UEC in 130
MAC Select Cover-Up in NW15
Illamasqua PF in 135
Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Disobey to contour
MAC Powder Blush in Dollymix

MAC Foxy Lady Eye Kohl on the entire lid blended upwards and on the lower lashline
MAC Beauty Marked e/s on Top of the Kohl
MAC Fig. 1 e/s in the crease and the lower Lashline
MAC Purple Shower e/s (LE) over Fig. 1
MAC Passionate e/s and Post Haste e/s mixed over the crease and on the lower lashline
MAC Next to Nothing e/s (LE) to highlight
MAC Young Punk MES (LE) in the lid
Illamasqua Static Pigment all over (used with Fix+)
MAC lll in Point Black top lashline and waterline
Illamasqua False Lashes 07

MAC Dervish Lipliner
Illamasqua Liar Lipstick

Static Pigment is actually pretty cool, i know Christine didn't like the packaging ("Oh, and packaging? I think I already lost 10% of the product on my floor and countertop after only opening it twice.") I had no problems with it...sure it's different but if you are careful it's fine, just pull the lid up on one side and it will open easily.
She also used it on top of a paint pot but underneath the eyeshadows and i think that's why she didn't love it, it IS glittery it has to be on top in my opinion.
And the last point where i disagree with her is that it looks similar to MACs Pink Opal pigment - I wouldn't call Static a pigment it's more on the glitter side and still easy to work with and Pink Opal is like an eyeshadow - Static is compared to Pink Opal purple in colour.

I tried to capture Statics awesomeness and kinda failed - but you can still see the difference in colour and in the second photo (i know it's blurry) you can see the different finish even better!

BUT Illamasqua pigments are very expensive and i personally don't think the pigments they offer are special but Static is and it was worth the money.

Anyways, hope you liked the look! :)

Pixiwoo inspired Look

The lovely pixiwoo made an awesome tutorial for the new Illamasqua Collection "Dystopia" - since I always loved painted on lashes I thought i'd give it a try...turned out pretty nice I guess :)

Dont be disappointed - but I barley used any Illamasqua products - at the time I made this look the Dystopia Collection wasn't on their website :(

I used the following:
CostalScents Camouflage Concealer Palette
Illamasqua PF135
MAC Perfect Topping MSF to highlight
MAC Fashion Frenzy p/b

Too Faced Shadow Insurance
MAC Stars n' Rockets - inner socket and streched it all along the crease, also lid and lower lashline
MAC Fig 1. - to deepen the crease and to smoke out the liner later on
MAC Carbon - used to intensify the crease even more
MAC Post Haste & Passionate mixed - above crease and on the lid aswell as on the lower lashline
MAC Liquid Last Liner in Point Black on the waterline and for lining the lower and the top lashline
MAC Liquid Last Liner in Visionare used to replace the Liquid Metal by Illamasqua on the "lashes"
MAC Beauty Marked - to smoke out the harsh lines of Point Black and to extend the liner
MAC Crystal Avalanche - to highlight

MAC Plushlash
MAC GirlBoy BrowSet
MAC 3# Lashes - just used the part i had to cut off to make the lashes fit my eye, on the outer third of my eye

I used Like Venus Dazzleglass on my lips...later :)
