Tears and Pearls (and fudge!)

Hello!

It's been so hot in here, that I really haven't even used makeup lately.
Can you believe, I even stopped using foundation, because it would melt away anyway :P
Sama thing with eyeshadows, I've been using only neutrals, if any.
My makeup has pretty much have been just mascara and defined brows :P

And it's also been too hot to even play with makeup, but I managed to do this pearl look while back:

 Then yesterday I watched Britain's Next Top Model, and there was a photoshoot against domestic violence.
It inspired me to do my own pictures:

 No Jangsaras were harmed during the shoot

 (I used MUFE flashcolors to create the black eye, then I sprayed some water to my eye to make my makeup look messed and some fake blood coming from the nose. )

That's about all I have done with makeup lately :S
I also managed to break my computer's graphic card (with Alice - Madness Returns <3), so I'm having a bit hard time to go through and editing my photos, which really isn't helping with my makeup block :P

But as a cheer up, I found an awesome company called British Fudge Company:

They sell fudge, all kind of fudge!
Like Death by Baileys, After Eight, Irish Coffee, Coconut Mint.... *drool*

And then some totally pointless photos of delicious fudge:

Lashing around!

Hola!


MUFE #92, Sleek bright blue from Circus palette, MAC Gesso, Wet'n'Wild purple Megaliner and Illamasqua Debonair pencil:

 Then my look for saturday, I didn't go anywhere, so I made myself a late halloween look:

3D gel, fake blood and red + black color

GeekChic SIX over black base, NYX circe on lips

 Then a look made with Stila Colorwheel palette:

And I had to take a picture of my lashes, I've been using DuLash lash growth about a month now, and I think my lashes are slightly longer and a lot fuller:

And last my yesterday's makeup, again with Stila Colorwheel palette (I think I'm falling in love with the palette,  it's easy to use, has lots of pigmented colors..):

I guess that's it!

Oh, and one more thing to my finnish readers:

Masquerade Macabre

Hello, and thank you for the ideas and suggestions!

I'll try to write about photographing looks and about blending at some point, I've had a lot of requests of those :D

I got my Trucco Angel Face palette today, and so far I love it. I'll post pics and swatches later on in this post, but first I'm gonna show you a look I did today.

First of all I wanna warn you, the may not be suitable for small children, since this is a gore look.

But anyway, onwards to the look.

Making a mask has been on my list for a while now, but today I finally had the idea and inspiration.

I wanted to make a sort of "anti-mask", I wanted it to look like somebody ripped the mask AND skin away.
Well, things don't always go as you planned, and this became more of a burned skin mask than ripped off, but anyway. I still like the idea ;D

Here we go:

( Look contains liquid latex, vaselin, black & red eyeshadow and fake blood )

 

  

Then I paired the look with red and black lips:

  

  

Some details, how the "skin" is hanging:

  

  

 

Then to my new baby, the Sebastian Trucco Angel Face (Angel Eyes?) palette:

Here's the palette closed:

  

Here it is open. Doesn't look like much, right? :

  

BUT check the swatches:

 No base - NYX Black Bean jumbo pencil

I love them. I just totally love them. 

We all may know that I have a weakness in duocromes and other oddities, and these just hit the spot. 

Truly amazing <3

And of course I had to give them a try, and I made "angelic" makeup with it:

  

  

  

I love how they change color!

But I guess that's all again :D

Happy Halloween!

It's Halloween!

Today I did a quick Cleopatra look, it looked like this:

And here's a bad closeup of the makeup. Lashes are really black, but the light makes them look brown :/

And then my LOTD. Since it's Halloween today, it's a fantasy look:

Closeup of the makeup:

NYX jumbo pencil Cherry

Stargazer red e/s

NYX Glitterati Cream "red" glitter

MAC Polished Ivory pigm.

Lumene Natural Code eye pencil

Lumene Natural Code eyeliner

MF FLE mascara

And without wig and with glasses:

  

"OMG, it's a camera! How scary!"

THEN!!
I made Halloween makeup for two of my ex-husband's friends.

First there is A, who wanted dark post-apocalypse/cyber look. She had lots of fishnet on, so I did fishnet pattern on her face too. And since she had black clothes and blue hair (and silver nails) I did black/blue/silver makeup for her:

And from the side the texture goes like this:

And I also did her avec's makeup, he wanted a zombie look:

This was first time I did a zombielook using liquid latex, and I loved it *g*
I also did a "bite wound" in his arm:

Unfortunately it shines quite a lot in the picture, but it was pretty disgusting in real life.

I'm actually quite happy for everything I've done today!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL OF MY READERS!

Halloween inspiration!

I thought that since Halloween is almost here, I'd make  Halloween ispiration post.
I made a new Poison Ivy makeup yesterday, so I'm gonna show that AND some of my older fantasy/character/ other looks to (hopefully) inspire you for halloween!

Poison Ivy part II :

I wasn't really satisfied to my first Poison Ivy makeup, so I wanted to make another one.
I don't really know is the makeup really better. Probably not.
I mostly consentrated on using the liquid latex, and kinda forget the whole makeup thing.

So this was more of a whole style than makeup.

AND, the wig is a Deluxe Jessica Rabbit wig I have bought from a finnish carneval store called Punanaamio. Unfortunately they don't ship internationally, but there are many Jessica Rabbit wigs in ie. Ebay :)

  

 

 

And after I ripped the liquid latex off, I had this awfully cute texture on my face:

Then to the older ones:

(Heath Ledger's) Joker:

 

( scars made with Derma Wax)

Mermaid:

( blue wig is from eBay, and sequins are attached to Derma Wax)

Zombie:

 (just facepaint)

Devil: 

(Grimas facepaint + Derma Wax on horns)

Beauty and the Beast:

( Makeup, facepaint and Derma Wax)

Mask:

(Sequins and makeup)

Decades:

Vampire:

 

 

( Tutorial for this one can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCrZxUTt_Ow .Wig from Ebay)

I hope that you'll find ispiration from these!
