EOTD 01.25.12 Psychobilly Pinup

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

Well.. maybe not an ACTUAL eye of the day. HA! Today is more like a full FOTD.. but I dont really use any face products because I cannot find a suitable foundation. Its super frusterating to say the least. I mean.. look how red/ blotchy I am in these photos. I'm sure a plain medium coverage foundation would cover most of these imperfections. Such a struggle for me. If anyone could suggest a foundation that doesn't make UBER DRY skin look like shedding lizard skin (even when I apply moisturizer to my face (am/pm & right before makeup application) & even add it into the foundation sometimes) I'd be forever in debt to you!  It sucks putting it on.. only to realize you look 20 times worse than your natural skin looked and you PAID moola to look that way. /sigh..  Anyway.. this look was inspired by my love for psychobilly. Its got a retro/ pinup vibe that I love!! It turned out very nice.  Sorry I didn't get any up close photos of just the eye look today. My camera ran outta juice, and I only got 4 or 5 photos to pick from, and all were full face.

What I used:
Beauty From the Earth: Butt Naked - all over eye area, all the way up to the brow.
Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo by EyeStudio:  Tough as Taupe - Blended into the crease & heavier in the outer Vee.
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Very Black
ELF Liquid Eyeliner: #4203 black - eyeliner + wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline
Wet N Wild: #911D or Stoplight Red - lips

Haha! This was the funniest face I made out of all the photos so I had to share it! 

Instagram app photo. Showing what my face could look like with perfect foundation. LoL.

So.. the only thing I didn't care for were the snobby snobs working at Sephora today. Why do bitches horribly rude/mean women (i call them "countergirls") always gotta work in cosmetic retail? You work retail in a MALL sugar.. don't treat me like I'm an idiot or beneath you or whatever. Its appalling.  I know I'm fat but chill out, I still care what I look like. I boycott going into their physical locations for that exact reason. Don't even get me started on the MAC counter. I literally quake with anxiety just stepping up to one. Way to make your customers feel awesome! I think that's one of the reasons so many people shop online, watch out snobby countergirls, you're gonna be out of a job thanks to the internet if you don't snip the 'tude.
*disclaimer*not ALL retail workers are "countergirls" there are a FEW out there who are lovely and friendly and helpful and are genuine diamonds in a sea of self hating hags who push their insecurities onto unsuspecting victims. and END RANT. :D So how have you all been doing? Hope things are well in your necks of the woods! Glad you stopped by! And don't forget to say hi before you go! :D

My influence: I was inspired by a Yin Yang. Ive always identified with this symbol. The idea that opposites only exist in relation to each other or basically there is no light without dark ect. I believe there is a harmony that hangs in this balance. My look is only suppose to be reminiscent of the symbol, not a replica. Thank you for looking :)
