Karmic Bongos-fotd

Also known as In Which She Applies Her Lipstick Like a Fool a-yup. My Mother let me borrow her small digital camera since mine is busted. It doesn't take very good close up shots like my camera does so I was a bit miffed when all the close ups of my eye make-up came out blurry. That's why I did mostly full faced, half closed eye pictures.

I drew this look up in class while I was waiting for the teacher to set up. I doodled several more eye charts that I really liked. Apparently my groove is on it's way back. Usually I'm at my "artistic peek" in Autumn. It's very odd. I used several of my under used Hi-Fi cosmetics eyeshadow samples. I'm sad to say that I haven't bought from Hi-Fi in a while because I am a lunatic. My samples are kinda old so I may end up giving them away to justify buying more. We shall see.

What I used:

Eyes-

TFSI

Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy

Fyrinnae e/s in Shinigami (A plummy-black based purple patted on the lid. Pat this color do not blend otherwise it will turn blacker then purple.)

Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Things That Cannot Speak (A plum purple blended into the inner crease.)

Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Living Large (A pinky-purple my fav, gently blended into the crease.)

Fyrinnae e/s in Mischief Makers (A cool toned sheer silver/white used to highlight.)

Fyrinnae e/s in Snow Bunny (A sheer lovely lilac blended into the inner corner.)

Wet n Wild Liquid eyeliner in pen in black (Meh.)

Wet n Wild cream eyeliner in black

Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Flipside (Used on the lower lash line.)

Mascara

lips-

Morgana Cryptoria Totally Tubular (Rubbed on the lips by an idiot.)

I have more looks drawn out that I can't wait to try. Maybe a few Star Trek looks are coming too! Who knows!

What would you guys like to see? More looks of a certain type? More special effects make-up artistry? I'd really love some feedback!

The Concrete Rabbit-Fotd/Haul

Two packages came for me yesterday afternoon. One from Concrete Minerals, the other from Kathy Jacobs. I didn't know she was sending me a care package, it was a welcomed surprise. Kathy's gifts made me cry a little. Thank you so much Kathy. I love my slippers and bracelet! I haven't tried the drink tablets but I will tonight. If you haven't checked out Kathy's blog you should. Not only is she very sweet and kind but her make-up is simply rad. Please check her out here.

The Concrete Minerals package held the three eyeshadows I ordered plus a sample size of the eyeshadow White Rabbit. I love the colors but I think I'm going to save Hearts(the red eyeshadow) for someone special. The other two colors are Temptress which is a light peacocky teal. And Wicked, an almost lavender like purple with a teal duo-chrome. The duo-chrome in these two shades is beautiful. I was expecting the shadows themselves to be a bit darker but I'm still pleased with the purchases. If you are interested in Concrete Minerals please go here. (Next time I'm tots getting Juvenile and Detox.)

Morgana Cryptoria Lipstick in Roses and Violets

I really like the Concrete Minerals eyeshadows my only compliant is that they're a bit sheer. The duo-chrome is enough to win me over though. I'd love to use these shadows for an airy-fairy type of look. Ooo... hmm... I think I need to draw out a face chart haha.
