My attempt at a Sugar Skull makeup

So I bought white makeup this weekend as I posted in my previous blog. I had some free time tonight so I decided to give the Sugar Skull face makeup a go...I used all eyeliners for the black and turquoise.

Here are some pics of the process....It's not perfect...I did it just for fun...but can't wait to do it again...less rushed!

ENJOY!


Drew my black eyes


Colored them in


Double Black eyes


Made me some flower petals


Gave myself some curls and stuff

The flash was super bright! But this is the finished look!

I had a lot of fun doing this look...but next time I think I will plan it out better. I just went with whatever for this first time. I would also love to try this look on other people...if you are interested...let me know!

Stay Bright and Be Bold!

ULTA and Party CIty Haul!

On Sunday I went out shopping with my mom...I wanted to get some white paint to make a sugar skull design. Along with the white paint, I got some spirit gum adhesive and remover along with a vampire bite marks. I want to try and do some special fx...so I figured why not? It's worth trying, and it was inexpensive! I can't wait to create a sugar skull! I will post pics of that for sure!




I also got some cool body crystals for some upcoming makeup looks I have in mind :D



SO now for my ULTA Haul! I originally went in to just browse because I wasn't impressed with much from this month's catalogue...but I left with some goodies!


I bought these 3 nail polishes...3 for $9...I used these colors to make my candy corn nails.

While browsing I saw this palette...I was in awe....it has 45 colors, 9 eyeliners, 6 blushes and 6 lipgloss....all for $59...now some of you might say DAMN that's a lot...but think about it...45 eye shadows...that alone is over $300...so I figured it was a good deal...and I got it! I will put swatches and a review of the colors up as soon as I use it!





45 eyeshadow colors :D


5 blushes and 1 bronzer...9 eyeliners, 6 lip colors!


I also needed heat protector for my hair since I ran out of my other stuff....they were having a sale...by 2 get one free...so I got some Heat protector, Sculpting Mousse and Awapuhi moisture oil. I'm excited to try this stuff out! (yes its not Aveda...but it will work I just know it!)





Overall I am happy with my haul so far...after I use the products more I am sure I will be super happy!

Keep an eye out for the reviews and sugar skull makeup!

Until then...stay bright and BE BOLD!

Inspired by Art...Thanks KY

The other day my friend Ky mentioned me in a twitter post saying that she was designing makeup looks that she knew that I would like them...and she was right!!! So I asked her to design one for me...and she did! So I recreated it! 




                     Here is the drawing Ky did                             My version




Primed my eye, applied loose powder to catch dark shadows
Took a light grey color from Inglot and applied it to the inner corner of my eye to the middle.

Applied Fuschia/Hot Pink (Inglot and Sugar Pill Colors) in the middle to outer corner of the lid.

Applied Dark Brown from Too Faced to the outer V corner and blended towards the inner corner of my eye.

Added the under eyebrow highlight color from Too Faced

Filled in my eyebrows with the same Dark Brown used in the V corner and applied Blacktrack gel liner from MAC.

Curled lashes, applied MAC prep & prime mascara, then used Too Faced LashGasm mascara on top of primer


And the Look is done! For some reason the flash wasn't picking up as much as I wanted to but decided to show all my pores haha!


Hope you enjoyed and thanks to KY for the inspiration! <3

Neon Lights and Love,
Emily =)
