Hufflepuffs-FOTD




There is a rumor going around that Hufflepuffs are sexual dynamos. They are in fact such sex pots that the sorting hat has to put them in a house with a stupid name. I think of Hufflepuffs as the sexually active band geeks of Hogwarts. I wanted to give this a sexy look to it because Hufflepuffs get so much shit. I feel bad since most of the Hufflepuffs I know are really sweet people. They don't deserve the nasty reputation of stupid the name gives. Don't be disheartened Hufflepuffs! Take your badgery to heart and be good finders.

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Nyx eyeliner in Yellow (Just on the lid.)
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy (Just on the lid.)
Shiro Cosmetics e/s Pikachu (I said it before, pikachu is the perfect yellow. Used on the lid and down on the lower lid.)
120 Palette
-Black (put in the crease and blended out like mad.)
E.L.F. Liquid eyeliner in Black ( Used first on the lower lash line and on top.)
NYX Jumbo e/s pencil in Black Bean (To line the lids.)
Mascara

lips-
Random Drugstore Black Lip Gloss from Last year

P.S. I won Grey's A Very Thankful November Giveaway! I didn't know until I checked my e-mail a second ago. HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS. *SQUEALS* Thank you Grey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stay Tuned for Several Emilie Autumn inspired looks and a hair post/look I did on Julia. :3

Ravenclaw-Fotd




Ravenclaws are the smarty pants of Hogwarts. Smart, loyal and honest these folks make amazing friends. I wouldn't have made it through high school if it weren't for my Ravenclaws. I think Ravenclaws are people to look up too. Gryffindors can be a bit reckless, Hufflepuff's can be a bit too nice and Slytherin's are just to bad ass to have a following. I seriously love this look and wish I had a better full sized picture of it. For some reason the amazing sparkles won't show up on my late 90's digital camera. D:

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
High Voltage e/s in Secrets & Lies ( Bright royal blue used on the crease.)
High Voltage e/s in Tombstone (Silvery grey used higher above the crease near the brow bone.)
High Voltage e/s in Sugar High (Navyish blue medium blue awesome color used on the lid.)
Estee Lauder e/s in Shimmery White (Used on the brow bone and on the corner of the eye lid.)
Sally Girl e/s in Silvery Dark Grey (Put under the lower lash line.)
NYC Liquid eyeliner in Black
Milani eyeliner in Black
Mascara

Lips-
NYX Round Lipstick in Thalia
I would have used Morgana Cryptoria's Shrieking Violet buuut I left it at my dorm. D: Seriously though if you try this look DO PURPLE LIPS. It will add a certain "smart art student" quality to the look.

Stay tuned for a Hufflepuff (the last look of this series) and a hair update post. :3

Slytherin-Fotd





Not all Slytherins are bad you know. Yeah some of them are a little snotty and Tom Riddle gives the house a bad name. My fiance is actually a Slytherin... which makes sitting in the common room a bit awkward. How am I suppose to get my mac on when Ron's all up in my face about dating a Slytherin. Er... sorry fan fiction mode here. In muggle news the male counterpart of the annoying couple (who broke up weeks ago) has been bothering me. I thought he was pretty harmless though my friend Julia hates him. He's made several suggestive passes at her including having pictures of her on his phone that she didn't know were taken. I didn't mind him until today when he shook his junk at me then sent passive aggressive messages to me over facebook. He's acting like a baby. It annoys me so much that when I walk past his door I mutter "Avada Kadava." I realize that's extremely immature but I'm not sure what else to do. I don't like getting in fights with people. I just want everyone to get along.

What I used:
Face-
Hard Candy Concealer Palette
Fyrinnae Mineral Foundation in Opal
Estee Lauder Bronze colored Blush (Countered cheek to add snooty fine boned features.)
Estee Lauder Peach Colored Blush (Brushed Lightly on apples.)
Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Shiro Cosmetics e/s in Articuno (Beautiful glittery silver used on the corner of the eye.)
High Voltage e/s in Zombie Chic (Perfect Slytherin green mmm, used on the lid.)
High Voltage e/s in Swamp Thing (Murky lovely dark green used on the crease.)
Shiro Cosmetics e/s in Articuno (Used to blend the upper crease and add some shimmery awesomeness)
Sally Girl e/s in Dark Silver (Used on the bottom of the lash line.)
Sally Girl e/s in Sparkly White (Used lightly on the brow bone as a highlighting shade.)
NYX Jumbo e/s pencil in white (On the waterline.)
NYC liquid eyeliner in black
Mascara

Lips-
NYX Round Lipstick in Circe

I left my under eye bare because I wanted to make me look "sunken in." If Slytherin are all pure-bloods they all must look pretty similar with sunken in eyes and high cheek bones. In the second picture I'm giving my best "Euck Potter smells," look. If my nose was a bit thinner I might have pulled it off haha.
I look forward to doing Ravenclaw tomorrow! :D

Gryffindor-FOTD




Harry Potter is a part of my life like my parents are. The books changed my life, helped me become who I am and helped me understand how the world works. I grew with Harry Potter, devouring the books like they were my life force. There will never be books like Harry Potter again. They shaped a whole generation of young people. When some one asks "What house are you in?" You automatically shout out your favorite. I wish I could explain better the impact Harry Potter has had on my life and the thousands... millions of children around the world. J.k. Rowling is my Queen. When I write I strive to live up to her standards. Some day I hope to meet her or at least have the courage to write her a letter.
Gryffindor is the house I was sorted into (er... wrote myself into) at ten. Most of my other friends (besides my BFF Heather) are in Ravenclaw. This weekend I'll be putting up more house based looks. :D

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Shiro Cosmetics e/s in Pikachu (My favorite yellow with red sparkles used on the inner corner of the eye.)
Morgana Cryptoria e/s in Twinkling Cherries ( Bright red used on the rest of the lid blended down.)
Fyrinnae e/s in Aztec Gold (Gold/Green used In the crease.)
Fyrinne e/s in The Witches Brewery (Black with red sparkles used on the inner crease lightly.)
Evil Shades e/s in Heartless Queen (Used over Twinkling Cherries to add more red.)
Fyrinnae e/s in Rupunzaul Had Hair Extensions (As a highlighting shade.)
NYC Liquid eyeliner
Milanai eyeliner
Mascara

lips-
Estee Lauder lipstick in Fig (My favorite neutral red.)

I know the red on one eye is uneven. After I took the pictures I noticed and fixed it. I was to lazy to re-do them. (Anime style sweat drop on forehead.)
I hope everyone whose going to the midnight showing of The Deathly Hallows Part 1 stays warm and enjoys it. I can't afford to go. D: D: D: D:
Love ya'll!
