EOTD: 04.12.13 Black Savage

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!


Today I went for something a little dolly goth. I really love how it turned out. The next time I do something like this I think I'll try a nice harsh outside edge to define a neat geometrical shape :D Just took a few quick snapshots today to get something posted cuz it's been far too long!


What I used:
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Sweet Savage - lid
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Black Forest - inner crease on top of black.
BFTE Cosmetics: Black - crease

Physician's Formula Eye Booster 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum : Ultra Black - Lid Eyeliner

Wet n Wild MegaEyes Crème Eyeliner : Black - Waterline
Maybelline The Mega Plush Volum Express Mascara: Very Black

I really love how Black Forest not only added lovely sparkle to an otherwise purely matte look, but it also transformed the black into a sort of violet shade.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great weekend!

Glamour Girls POTW!

I'm very excited this week! It's my turn for Darling Girl Cosmetics' Pick of the Week!
This means I get to choose one of my most favorite shades to go on sale for all of you beauties to purchase this week! :D

My pick of the week is : 

Verdant Dream
Verdant Dream is one of my all time favorite DGC pigments. It's just stunning. If you don't own this one, you are surely missing out. SO hard to capture its beauty on camera.. It's a beautiful mint green that has a beautiful violet sheen and sometimes even looks like its shifting to a soft powder blue. 

Beautiful Bokeh shot of the pretty blue & violet sparklies

I was inspired to do this look by the upcoming holiday... Saint Patrick's Day ! I did a lovely mix of green shades with a wee bit o' gold , which no leprechaun would be caught dead without. ;)

What I used:
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Verdant  Dream - inner 1/2 lid and inner lower lash line
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Wicked - outer 1/2 lid

Darling Girl Cosmetics: Lizard Spock - crease & outer lower lash line
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Ghost Light - crease under Lizard Spock to aid with blending

Geek Chic Cosmetics: Kingslayer - Highlight
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Honey Pot - under lower lashline liner

ELF Liquid Eyeliner: black - eyeliner
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline
Maybelline The Mega Plush Volum Express Mascara: Very Black

Up close with Verdant Dream. So lovely.

The only shot I got in natural light that wasn't super blurry.

My swatches don't do it justice, but I tried...  Hehe. Hey.. that reminds me.. make sure you all tell my husband how much I NEED a new camera and maybe I'll get one for Christmas this year or something :D So have you bought your awesomely discounted jar of Verdant Dream yet? What's your favorite Darling Girl Cosmetics shade of Green? Don't get caught without wearing at least one ....you wouldn't want me to pinch you! :D  Happy St.Paddy's Day everyone!

06.22.12 EOTD Steampunk Clock

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!


Today I was inspired by the wondrous world of Steampunk. I was also inspired by the beautifully sparkly Geek Chic shadows I have. I was looking through my stash and thought these colors would be cool with some sort of really interesting liner, and so I made the little clock hands. I was going to add numerals to the clock.. just a few of them.. but I think I really love how this is a bit more subtle. If I had a tiny bit more artistic talent I would have tried for gears too.... but you guys know how unforgiving black liquid liner is! ;) Maybe we'll shoot for that next time...  Hope you enjoy this look as much as I do!


What I used:
Geek Chic Cosmetics: Eyes of the Werewolf - inner 1/2 lid & inner lower lash line
Geek Chic Cosmetics: The Pointy End - outer 1/2 lid
Geek Chic Cosmetics: Ugghhh...Brains - blended just above the crease & outer lower lash line
Geek Chic Cosmetics: Mana Battery - Highlight & inner corner
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Black Drama
ELF Liquid Eyeliner: #4203 black - eyeliner + clock hands
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline

Lips: Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter : Peach Parfait

Oh mah goodness.. my bangs seriously need a trim! :D Hope you guys are having a great weekend! The question of the day is : What do you think of creative liner? Do you think its wearable or just something fun for costuming? Comment below and let me know what you think! 

06.10.12 EOTD Muddy Runaway Corpse

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!


Hey guys! I was in a really awful mood this weekend. Turns out my car is broken beyond repair and its a really hard blow for us because we are a single car family, and this is the only way my husband has to get to work and for us to go anywhere really. We needed to go out quickly for some groceries (thankfully a family member is allowing us to borrow a vehicle atm) .. this weekend, so I threw this on. The full face photos really didn't turn out, but I'm sure it had mostly to do with the terrible mood I was in. So .. I apologize for that. But I really hope you guys still enjoy the look just the same! :D 


What I used:
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Muddy Waters - lid
Moi Minerals: RunAway  - crease
Coastal Scents 88 Palette (original) : Dark Brown - Outer V (&blended into the crease area)
Coastal Scents 88 Palette (original) : White - Highlight
Darling Girl Cosmetics: Corpse Candle -Highlight (sparklies) & inner corner
Moi Minerals: Zim - Lower lash line (2/3rds from outside edge)
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Black Drama
Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner: 05 Everlast - liner & wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline


Lips: Brazen : Peep Show on top of Haus of Gloi: Banana Lip Balm (I wanted Peep Show to be a bit more sheer/less sticky ) 


.... After mashing my lips together too many times my lip choice didn't really pan out ... I eventually switched to my favorite gloss which atm happens to be: Milani 3D glitzy glamour gloss in Fashion Diva (No photos of this look with this lippie though sorry!) 

To show  which colors I used from the 88 Palette

Never Too Much Sparkle Facebook Group Challenge:
Theme: LADIES OF ROCK!!!

 For Challenges I'm not going to list off products used. It will just be a photo entry for the most part and how I was influenced by the challenge. If you are curious about a particular item I used, please feel free to comment below and I'll do my best to answer!

My influence: Amy Lee. What a goddess she is! She is generally very light with her makeup aside from a bit of eyeliner.. so I used these photos from a google search and VAMPED up the color (get it.. haha.. instead of amped.. ok ok.. ill shut up now with my lame puns now.) I wanted something a teeny bit more gothy and dark. I really wish I had the skill to get my foundation to look like the photo of her. I would be happy if you guys have suggestions for me! :D

*courtesy of Google Image search

Please excuse my really rosy cheeks. I get really red in the face sometimes and while I finally found a foundation I would love to have that would actually match my coloring. I just can't afford to import it at the moment. (Not to mention the concealer has been sold out in the right shade I need for a month now)...

 I know the challenge technically doesn't start until tomorrow, but this was the only time I had to get this done so.. yeah.. here ya go! :D 

05.20.12 EOTD

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

Hi there! I've been kinda lacking on showing you guys my EOTD lately. Partially because my husband just started a new job, so we are hardcore budgeting, so I'm barely leaving the house! LoL.. This means less makeup wearing and more house cleaning, haha! I'm sure we've all been here right? The other reason is that I just keep finding myself drawn to those shifting taupes and Im basically doing the same eye over and over again. SO instead of boring you with the same thing all the time. I decided I would do something different, even if it was just a midnight jaunt to Walmart.

What I used:
Moi Minerals: 2nd Chance - lid
BFTE: Starstruck - high crease area & inner lower lash line
Moi Minerals: Master of Puppets  - crease & outer lower lash line
BFTE Cosmetics: Butt Naked - Highlight
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Black Drama
Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner: 05 Everlast - liner & wing
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline

Lips: Philosophy angel kiss lip gloss : be sweet

gah! the flash is washing out all the rich beautiful color here, and drowning all the sparkle! I need to learn how to take better photos!

Hope everyone is doing well! I hope to be doing some more challenges and stuff just to be able to have things to post for you guys! I'm sure we've all gotten into color mantras. Doing the same look over and over again while our other colors sit around collecting dust. Today's EOTD question is :  What do you do to get yourself out of the rut and back into color inspiration town again?  Comment below and give me some ideas! Thanks!
