Tutorial: Maleficent




The bad guy we love to hate, Maleficent <3
I wanted to include the "horns", black, purple and the awesome flames to the makeup, and I think it came out pretty good.


I had the inspiration of doing this late at night, so I didn't do more than one eye, no full-face looks this time, sorry. 



First start with priming your lid:

Then take your favourite liner and sketch the outlines of the Maleficent's "horn":

Apply black to whole lid (Sugarpill Tako  Bulletproof):

Blend the black with dark purple (Sugarpill Poison Plum):

Blend the dark purple with lighter purple (Sugarpill 2am):

Apply highlighter under the brow (Sugarpill Tako):

Then use white liquid liner (Lime Crime Lunar Sea) to draw some shape to the horn

Next the flames. I used ModelsOwn neon green pencil to shape the flames:

Then I added Sugarpill Acidberry and Buttercupcake over the pencil:

And finally added TheBodyNeeds Enchanted & Neon Yellow glitters (attached with Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy):

I wanted even more glitter, so I added a glitter liner to outer half of lid, using Pixie Epoxy and Grimas Polyglitter #061:

 I added mascara and Sugarpill Daydreamer lashes:

And wohoo, the look is done!

Tutorial: Spiderman



The new Spiderman movie is coming soon, are you excited already?
After my Avengers series, I've had a lot of requests to do other superheroes, comic book characters etc, and since Spidey has cool colors and textures, I decided to do Spiderman makeup.


For starters I want to apologize that my hand maybe wasn't the steadiest when doing this, and my choice of falsies be might a bit wrong, but hey, it's just makeup, let's not take it too seriously ;P

Start with primer, and then apply blue shadow (Sugarpill Royal Sugar) to inner 2/3 of your lid:

Then apply black shadow to the outer corner:

Next start applying red (Lime Crime Fly Dragon Fly) to crease and above

Apply some black to crease, blend upwards with the red:

Then take white liner (Illamasqua Scribe or Lime Crime Lunar Sea) and start making a web pattern. I wanted the web to be "attached" to my brow, and start from my upper lashline:

Draw the web and then extend the start of the web to line your upper lashline (Hopefully you are better webspinners than I am ):

Add a thin black line really close to your lashline, and apply some depth to the web pattern with black if needed:

Next I did the brow, I went with dark brown color:

Then I applied red shadow to my lower lashline, along with thin black line:

I thought the look needed some sparkle, so I added some MAC Reflects Rust glitter over the red shadow, and I also lined my waterline with bright blue and black liner:

Then I applied mascara:

And finally false lashes:


Finally I finished the look with screaming red lips (Lime Crime Candy Apple gloss):

(Tutorial:) Poison Ivy



So, yesterday night I found this site with thousands of cosplay pics from different conventions, and the one character that kept popping up was Poison Ivy. The outfits were usually very well put together, but usually the makeup was somehow dull.
So that gave me an inspiration to do my own version of Poison Ivy.
There are a few popular Poison Ivy styles; The Uma Thurman's Poison Ivy from the 90's film, the different versions from the comics, and the Batman: Arkham Asylum version. 
I like some parts of all of them, but I wanted to add my own twist to it. I didn't want to make just a sexy woman with red lips and hair and poison ivy leaves, but something a bit more sinister, but still kinda hot.

This is how it came out:

This is how I did it:

First I made a normal base to my face (primer, foundation), then I drew thin vein-like lines all over my face (mostly to temples and side of my face, not too much but still noticeable).
Then I applied basic lash glue (mine was Duo lash glue) over the green lines:

I let the glue to dry, and when it was dried enough, I applied some dark color around the glue to make more depth to the veins. Then I did the makeup itself:

I actually did super basic dark smokey eye, I used black base for lid (MAC Slick Black greasepaint stick), Sugarpill Bulletproof over Slick Black, then dark green from 120 palette, and blended the edges with Sugarrpill Acidberry and Illamasqua Vernau. 
I made the brow really arched, I used basic brown brow pencil and OCC Botanical liptar to create the kinda mossylike finish.
And finally Sugarpill Flutter false lashes:

For the lips I used concealer, and OCC Botanical liptar, kinda looking that it would be oozing from my mouth:

Then some highlighter and blush to make the skin look natural:

And finally a super-cheap red wig (it's some kind of cheap Jessica Rabbit wig from costumeshop) and some fake ivy leafs, and I also patted a hint of green color also to the hairline of the wig to make it look like the hair was also "infected" of the veins/moss:

And the look is done!

Tutorial: Plan Nautilus from outer space

Time to get crazy with Sugarpill Heart Breaker!

First prime your lid with your favourite primer. I then used a small amount of NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk to lighten up my lid a bit:

Then I actually started drawing some scribbles to my lid with black liner, like this:

At this point I had some idea of what I was about to, so I made the lines thicker with NYT Jumbo pencil Black Bean:

Next I took Sugarpill's Mochi shadow, and applied it to the areas I left light :

Then I took Sugarpill Velocity, and applied it over the dark areas:

Some more Mochi, to whole lid area except the middle part:

To the middle are I added Sugarpill Tako:

Next step was to lighter up the light parts even more with NYX Jumbo pencil Milk:

Next Sugarpill 2am, I added to EVERYWHERE! No really, just to the brow, outer corner, and lower lashline:

..But it wasn't enough! I added 2am also to upper lashline, more to lower lashline, between the lines in outer corner.. :

Then I lined my eye with black liner:

Added false lashes to both upper (Sugarpill Daydreamer lashes ) and lower lashline:

Finally I added glitter. Lot's of it. (E.L.F. Stardust glitter liner)





Don't ask me where you could use this kind of makeup :D But may this serve as a sample of the new Sugarpill Heart Breaker palette. ;D
