What's up?

I've been waiting a good subject to post about, you know, like coming back with a bang, but anything hasn't really happened.

But I've been slowly starting to do makeup looks again (other than boring neutral everyday looks), and I thought I'd share some of them here too. They have been already been in my facebook page and instagram, but here are some of them again anyway:

Recently Illamasqua released a new collection, called Paranormal.


I came across their amazing promotional photo, and wanted to do my own version of it:


Mainly Illamasqua products used, Complement palette, Kontrol lipstick and Boost instense lipgloss.


 Then I wanted to try the Kim Kardashian makeup, mainly the skin-thing she does, and managed to do this:

I used a ton of products, something like 5 shades darker foundation that I normally use, white under my eyes etc. Not really your light everyday look -_-

As opposite to huge amount of makeup, I added some fake freckles to myself and went all "natural redhead": :D


 Then something different again, I went all R.
You know, from Warm Bodies? (Still haven't seen it though.)

Anyway, I wasn't pretty:

Then one of my favourite characters, Magenta from Rocky Horror Picture Show:


I was also doing makeup at the photoshoots, it made me realise how much I really suck at general photoshoot looks. I tend to over-do everything horribly. Well, now I know better.
some of the photoshoot pics here and here, by Iiris


For a moment, I also was Death:




Finally, I did a Borderlands look for my husband:


And last a test makeup for Mad Moxxi look from Borderlands:

So there.

Photoshoot: Panda-Diablo III




'ola!
I have tons of posts queued, gazillion pictures ready, but the text is lacking, I just haven't found any time to write any posts, and I'm really sorry for that.
You, my readers, are the reason I'm having my blog, so I feel bad that I can't post all the time. 
I have suffered from severe depression for over ten years, and sometimes it unfortunately affects my blogging. I just can't find motivation to write, especially when there has been a long break, and I have to break the blog silence with something. I don't want the post to be too boring, but something that would be worth the wait. 
I know most of these feelings and thoughts are only inside my head, but there's where they matter to me.
I just want to apologize and ask you to bear with me.

But after this non-makeup related information, the Diablo III look.

Panda from Piece of Panda blog was going to Assembly (it's a Finnish demoscene and gaming event) and she wanted something geeky for her makeup. 
After some pondering, we decided to go with Diablo III look, inspired by this pic:



Here's the design I made:


And here's the final result:
Sugarpill Bulletproof, Lime Crime Fly Dragon Fly, Sugarpill Goldilux and Eye Kandy Cosmetics Banamarama and Candy Apple glitters 


Photography & Makeup: Jangsara


After I did this look, I got a request to do a look inspired by character from Diablo, called Magda (or Maghda, I'm not sure):

Here's my original design based on that picture:

The result was something a bit different:

I used mainly Manly 120 palette and Lime Crime eyeliners.

Photoshoot: Try ALL the looks!


I haven't had a model in a long time, but I was able to finally lure someone to be guinea pig for my makeup experiments :D
We did three different looks, and this was the first one:



For the eyes I used:
-Sugarpill Bulletproof (lid)
 Poison Plum (crease)
2am (blending)
Acidberry   (lower lashline)
- TBN glitters Pixie (upper lid)
 Neon Yellow (lower lashline).

The lashes are Illamasqua's most perfect lashes ever, Decadence lashes.

On the lips is MakeupGeek's lipstick Famous, and blush is Illamasqua's Morale.


Second look was much simpler, something pin-upish:


MakeupGeek eyeshadows:
Beaches and Cream
Purely Naked
Latte & Mocha

Lips:
MakeupGeek Elegant
ColorClub Red Dress lipgloss

Bluesh is Illamasqua Naked Rose


 And then the final crazy look, mainly this was inspired by the wig.. :


Eyes:
Sugarpill Mochi (lid)
Velocity (crease, outer corner)
Tako (Around the eyes)
Darling (sprinkled around eyes)
Royal Sugar  (sprinkled around eyes)
Upper lashes are # 159 from Marlliss and lower lashes are Paperself lashes called Small Peonies

Lips are Illamasqua Apocalips mixed with Illamasqua Violate lipgloss.


It was so fun to do makeup and photograph again, own face can get boring after a while :D

Photoshoot: Corpse Bride

Hola!

A lot of you have asked me to do a corpse bride inspired makeup, so this is for all of you!
This is the first "real" shoot where I was behind the camera and makeup, and model was incredibly sweet Ronja S.:





And one photo of the makeup without any accessories:

I used mostly sugarpill again, with MUFE flash colors.

So get your a** up, show me how you burlesque!

Hola!
Lately I've been doing not just one, but two burlesque themed makeup and photoshoots!
The first one was for bachelorette party , it had to be bold, but still fitting for bar round.
With second one I had totally free hands, but I ended up doing quite ordinary look, I didn't want to overdo the look.
And I must admit that I really like how the pics came out!



First the yesterday's look with T:

For T I used Sugarpill Goldilux and MAC Heritage Rouge, with some MUFE #101 to inner corner & highlight:


And for A I used MUFE #109 & #140, rhinestones and fancy lashes:
