This is me staring at you-fotd





Today has been one of those boring days where you just sit around watching NCIS. Happily I had time to put some make-up on. I dyed Shaun's hair yesterday with turquoise highlights and his usual shocking blue. It looks amazing when the light hits it. I blended it well in the front but the blue is really solid in the back. He says he likes it but I'm a bit grouchy with how poopy I did. Pictures of it will be coming tomorrow. :D
My younger brother Josef whom you've seen pictures of wants to dye his hair black. We'd like to bleach strips of his hair in the front so we put red in it. It will make it easier for other people to recognize us as siblings. *twitch*
The look this was inspired by Cosmetic Vikings new look called blurple. If you aren't reading his blog you are missing out on some serious talent. Please visit his blog here
What I used:

Eyes:
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Shiro Cosmetics e/s Squirtle (A bright blue used on the lid.)
Shiro Cosmetics e/s Lance the Dragon Trainer (Sparkley burple used in the crease.)
Shiro Cosmetics e/s Gengar ( A dark purple with purple sparkles used on the outer corner of the crease lightly.)
NYX e/s in Barely There ( An ivory highlighting shade that was to warm toned for this look.)
Estee Lauder Skin tone color e/s ( A slightly cooler/darker shade of highlight used on the brow bone.)
Estee Lauder Sheer pink e/s (Used on the inner corner of the eye and over the other highlight shade.)
NYC liquid eyeliner in black
Milani eyeliner in black
Mascara


lips-
L.A. Colors Tropical Palette Bright Pink (Patted on the lips.)

I love Shiro's eyeshadows they are so soft and buttery. I never have a problem blending them. They seem like they'd be a bit sheer but actually the colors pack a secret punch that explodes out with Pixie epoxy. I used to use Nyx eyeshadow but they crease horribly on me. That's why I'm so bad at using matte eyeshadows. I don't have my beloved Pixie epoxy to work with. (Also I'm shit at blending mattes. Ugh I love the but they are my only weakness!)
Gotta writer a reviiiieeeeeewwwww! Augh!

  3. Pixie Epoxy is really a life saver. It turns even the baldest shade into something at least usable. I don't know what I would do without it!

  6. Phyrra- Thank you honey. :D

    Robyn- Girl I am in the same boat. I realized today that I only have enough to get me through the week maybe less. I freak a little I must admit. It's like crack, you can't stop using it.

    Psychopixie-Amen I love Pixie epoxy so much. I'm not sure what I'd do with out it. Pixie epoxy single handedly turned me to Indie cosmetics companies. :

    Lillian- Thank you very much. It was really pretty in person. :D

    Kathy-Aww thank you. XD
