Your ocean pulls me under

First I wanna tell that I LOOOOOOVE my Essie Matte About You -polish:


It's absolutely AWESOME. I've been bored with all my polishes lately, but now I have discovered them all again, 'cos I can make all them matte!

Here's my Nails of the Day, using Nfu-oh 130, Nfu-oh 047 and Essie Matte About You:


I can definately recommend this for anyone who loves nail polishes :D

Then to my yesterday's LOTD.

I have this celebrity inspired makeup season apparently, so I tried to recreate Kristen Stewart's Allure Photoshootmakeup, this one:


 

I wanted to use cheap makeup, so I desided to use just my NYX Pearl Mania's. Result wasn't as good as I hoped for, but.. Well, here it is:

 
I know that the lipstick is too nude, and that NYX Nude wasn't the best choice for highlight, but anyway :D
AND I guess this would be best with MAC Unsquare eyeshadow.

 

NYX Jumbo pencil Milk
NYX Pearl Mania Silver
NYX Pearl Mania Nude
NYX Pearl Mania Penny
NYX Pearl Mania Walnut
MAC Blacktrack fluidline
MF FLE mascara

I also did a tutorial of this look, but I'm not sure I want to put it online. I hate the bad quality of my video's, and also the really disturbing background. But I can't buy new camera, and I can't really move my webcam or my computer :(

But anyway, I tried to do a hothothot makeup today, but it turned out little TOO hot:


 
I used NYX Jumbo pencil Cherry, PureLuxe Charisma, Ben Nye Aztec Gold and Ben Nye Sun Yellow.

So I wiped it off and made a sea inspired LOTD:




 
 

 

I used Ben Nye pigments and UD Oil Slick.


Tomorrow I'm going to Mschic SkunkGirl -collection's launch party, and I'm really nervous :D
I'll do some kind of post of that as soon as I've recovered :D

Rihanna, -anna, -anna, -anna, -anna...

Sorry, been busy again :(

Anyway, here's my yesterday's makeup, MAC Rated "R" + MAC Emerald Green pigment:






And here's my today's LOTD, mix of PureLuxe, MAC and Ben Nye:




(and REALLY BAD PHOTOS :<

I so really, really want a new flash, so I could take decent photos again. I think everything I do looks horrible when I take a picture of it nowdays. )

But anyway. I got inspired by Rihanna's American Award makeup, and I wanted to recreate it. I didn't came out as fierce as Rihanna has, but it'll do :D

Here it is:



 
 
 
And the tutorial:





I also made an order to Beauty From the Earth, I'll be getting some funky new colors <3
And.. I'm getting my first NARS eyeshadow... And my Smashbox eyeliner box... aaaaaaand...
ummm.. Oh, I got myself supercute new container:

It's barbie pink, because it's originally ment to be a storage for barbie dolls and their stuff.
I decided to put some my makeup's in there and it works just perfectly <3

But I have some pretty exciting stuff coming up next week, so stay tuned! :D

Too Faced Daisy

Phew.

Sorry about yesterday, I just didn't have anything to write about :/

My yesterday's look was superneutral, as you can see:

Unfortunately I have NO idea what I used. I guess the lighter shade is MAC Orb, and the darker COULD be MAC Off the Page. not sure though.

The I also did an entry for MakeupGeek's Weekly Challenge, Colorful Daisy. I really wasn't inspired by the picture, and it really shows:

I have to admit, that I like it at all. Well, I liked the "waterdrops" and the eyebrow, but that's all.
So I re-created it today, and I personally think this is much better:





Much better I think.Made with Ben Nye pigments, MAC Young Punk and MAC Heritage Rouge.

But then to my LOTD:
 
 
Sorta blast from the past, this reminds me of the looks I made at summer.

But then good news, I got my Too Faced Liquif-eye palette!


 

And swatches of the colors, and some of them with the liner thingy:
 

And I had to try the lining thing, first there is Too Faced's own black, then Grimas matte white, then MAC Off the Page, then MAC Cranberry, then Grimas matte white again, and finally Grimas matte black:
 

Summa summarum, the liner works.

Then good news for all of you, I finally made a new YouTube tutorial!
I've been asked to do a tutorial of the look I put to MakeupGeek's Idea Gallery:


And here's the tutorial:

Gosh von Teese

I made it! I did a blogpost today! Wohoo!

I'll start with my EOTD once again:

 

 All made with Gosh:

Gosh Love That Ivory eyeshadow stick as a base
Gosh Smokey eyes palette
Gosh Black Ink eye pencil
Gosh mascara


Then I wanted to do a look with my new headpiece that my friend brought as a souviner from Barcelona. Since I think the headpiece is SO Dita von Teese, I made a Dita -look:

 

 

Sweet and innocent, yes yes ;D
 

 

And a little bonus, look for the photographer :D
 
I'm really not pleased with the lipcolor. It's way too bright for me, I need something more brownish. Usually I use brownish lipliner, but I thought I do a "real red" today, and that was a small mistake.
But oh well, the hairpiece isn't going anywhere :D:D
And no, I don't know why I look so bloated in the pics :S I guess I've gained some more weight (again) :S

That's all tonight!

EDIT: Oh, and I used MAC Polished Ivory pigment and MAC Unsquare for the Dita look :)

Cosmic girl from the shadows of the Moon

Sorry, I was way too tired to post anything when I got home yesterday.

I had my last gig with Kuun Maailma (Il Mondo della Luna) -opera production, and after that I had to run to friend's place, to do his Lasombra -mask.

But I'll start with my yesterday's LOTD:

 
 

I used Ben Nye Indian Copper, MAC Rose Gold (if I remember correctly) and 24k -eyeliner.

Then I was asked to put pics of the opera production makeup's I did.
Makeup design is made by Laura Pylvänäinen, I just did what was asked :D

Here are (bit bad) pics of lovely Flaminia and spanish maid Lisetta:



And like said, I then ran to my friends place, where I transformed him into Lasombra, shadow-controlling vampire, who has got a bullet in his head:


 

And finally my LOTD, I wanted to try my Ben Nye pigments, so here we go:

 
 
MAC Blackground p/p
Ben Nye Cosmic Violet (lid)
Ben Nye Amethyst  (crease)
Ben Nye Cherry Red (above crease)
Ben Nye Cosmic Blue ( middle of the lid)
Ben Nye Ice (highlight)
Deep Plum eyeliner
MF FLE mascara


And finally my NOTD:
 
I guess that's it!
