NTMS: Ladies Of Rock

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

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 

EOTD 11.14.11 Inspired by Siryn

Good News Everyone! A new EOTD!

So last Friday the lovely Siryn Von Steam posted the look she wore to this years Comikaze. Let me tell you. She looked abso-freaking-lutely stunning. I immedately fell in love with the look, and decided I would attempt to recreate it. Siryn has some of the most amazing talent I've seen out there, so this was a challenge for me. Not to mention I've never tried to RECREATE a look EXACTLY. I usually put my own spin on things and such. But I tried to get this one as close as possible. I didn't have the palette she used, but I did the best I could with what I had. I'm pretty happy with the way it came out. :D

Please take a moment to visit her page to see the original look here : Siryn Von Steam Steampunk Look

What I used:
Wet n Wild LE Palette "Golden Goddess": Bottom Right Brown - Crease & 1/2 outside lower lash line
Psyche Minerals: Aerith - Crease (mixed on top of shade above and patted on top for glitter)
Wet n Wild LE Palette "Golden Goddess": Top Left Creamy Champagne - Highlight
Rock A Betty Beauty: Requiem - lid & 1/2 inside lower lash line
Wet n Wild LE Palette "Night Elf": Top Right Silver - Inner corner (tear duct)
Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express Mascara: Very Black
Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eye Liner Pencil: 01 Black - waterline
Just Pure Minerals: Black Cherry- lips

For some reason I thought u could see the glitter in this photo better?

I think this was a pretty okay first attempt. I needed a richer/ darker brown for my crease color I think. But I haven't really picked up too many fall colors yet, so I'm lacking in that department. I think this is definitely something I will try to do again to try to master. I think its perfect for sweater weather, and goes wonderful with darker eye shades. Thanks for reading :) Hope you are all having a great week!
