Such Great Heights-fotds

Fall is fast approaching thank goodness. I can't wait till the leaves turn and the days start getting colder. Autumn is my favorite time of year mostly because of Halloween. As you can probably tell my looks are also becoming more autumn based. Wee! This Halloween is going to be great!

What I used:

Face-

Holika Holika Petite BB Cream

Darling Girl Pamper Primer Powder (Dusted over the nose where it gets the oiliest.)

Evil Shades blush in Gossamer (Wah my sample is almost out.)

Eyes-

TFSI

Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy

Fyrinnae e/s in Scared (Sandy gold taupe used on the lid.)

Darling Girl Cosmetics e/s Making Merry (Berry purple used in the crease. I love this color.)

Shiro Cosmetics e/s in Meowth (Shimmery ivory used to highlight.)

Wet n Wild cream eyeliner in black (Used on the waterline and lash line.)

Mascara

lips-

Morgana Cryptoria lipstick in Roses and Violets

More Star Trek looks and reviews to come. I know I don't usually write reviews but reviews always help me when I want to buy stuff. :D

Teen Angel-Fotd Based off of Misschievous

Before I started hacking way at my keys doing logic homework I decided to do a quick look. I was watching Misschievous'es most recent Halloween look on youtube and I just had to do it. I wish I have rhinestones and fake lashes because it would have looked so much cuter. She used white feather eyelashes and colorful rhinestones all around her eyes and temples. CUTE.
One of my floor mates knocked on the door to see if I'd come downstairs with her to get some food. She literally grabbed my face and yelled "OH MY GOD SO CUTE. SO MUCH DEPTH." It was a bit strange, I've never had anyone react that way to my make-up before. They've only seen me do zombie make-up so this was a new look for them. My every day looks are just as vibrant but this stood out from behind my glasses a lot more. :D

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy (Spread around the crease and upper brow bone but not on the lid.)
Nyx jumbo eyeshadow pencil in Cottage cheese (Just used on the lid and spread out.)
Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Let it Snow (Shimmery white as a highlighting shade and lid shade.)
Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Pins and Needles (Used all around the crease and under the eye.)
Morgana Minerals e/s in Druscilla (BRIGHT ASS PINK used on the inner crease to add depth.)
NYC eyeliner in Black
Milani eyeliner in black
BOAT LOADS OF MASCARA

Lips-
Nyx Round Lipstick in Rae
Nyx Round Lipstick in Narcissus
Nyx Lipgloss in French Kiss

This was fun to to do! I hope you check the video out of Misschieveouse's channel. :D

Feeding Cherries to Cerberus-Fotd

Cerberus guards the door to the underworld. In some legends he is the boatman that takes you down the river Styx. In others he is the three headed dog that eats your soul if you cannot pay the way to the after life. This was my mistake. I was a young teen when I died, it wasn't a tragic death or a brave one I passed away in my sleep from an aneurysm. This may seem like a stupid way to die but it's a normal thing that happens to people. Or at least that's what the Doctor's told my parents after the autopsy, I was just hanging around for a few days to see what my funeral was going to be like.
I had died with a pocket full of cherries in my night gown. I intended to eat them in the middle of the night, stolen from my grandfather's fruit farm. I guess death had a better plan for me. I don't recall much about the whole dying bit. Just some nice white lights, a soft surface and a warm embrace. I wasn't in heaven though, I had to pass the gates to the underworld to get where I was going.
My funeral was short. My friends all came and cried, my boyfriend who I had just started to like also cried. He stayed with my parents telling them how much he'll miss me and yadda this and yadda that. To be honest he was a good guy just a little long winded. I knew he'd tell everyone I was his soul mate or something that way he could get out of class work. I knew after a bit of time everyone including my parents would move on so I'd better do the same.
The Gates were like nothing I had ever seen before. Wrought iron with spikes would seem threatening but to me it held a comforting type of fear. All one has to do is push open the gates, walk down the steps to the river and board the boat. The boatmen would take you only if you could pay. Swallowing I grasped at the cherries in my pocket hoping they would be enough. The stairs were short despite the tales of miles and miles of decent. I skipped down them in a second, smiling at the kindly old man who sat at the helm of a great sailing ship.
"Mind your manners young lady. Pay the fine." He said tapping the side of the boat. There was a little sign near his fingers that read "Yee who don't pay, get the hell away." Dark humor? Great, this is going to be fun. I dropped two of the cherries into his out stretched palm and ran on to the boat.
The boatman shrugged and started off towards the dark tunnel of heaven or was it hell?

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Morgana Minerals e/s in Twinkling Cherries (Beautiful vibrant red used on the lid.)
Evil Shades e/s in Cerberus (Burgandy/red/bronze used in the crease.)
Fyrinnae e/s in French Vanilla Shake (Highlight of course.)
NYC Liquid eyeliner in Black
Milani eyeliner in Black

lips-
Fantasy Maker's Lipstick in Dark Cherry

Hey guys the giveaway is closed! I'll be putting all the names into a hat and pulling them out. The tutorial is coming today once I finish writing up the steps. I have an exam in logic and my English class so I'm doing this between studying. Yesterday I doubt I could have written this because my head was so full of logic I couldn't think. Thankfully the muse has returned to me. :3 I hope you all entered! If you'd like to add a late entry just e-mail me at Pixiealamode at gmail dot com.

Taffy Watermelon- Fotd

It's actually nice today! I'm so excited that fall is finally on it's way. I put this on when I got back to my dorm after classes since I wanted to feel pretty. Some days you just want to look nice for pretties sake. I'm sorry my posts have become fewer but there has been a lot of home work. My favorite class is my poetry class because the teacher is still young. When you have a younger teacher they still have the passion to teach that most older professors don't have. I've had teachers who have been on their last year and I barely learned anything. It was a semester of movies or cheap readings. I love to learn and I hate being jipped.

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinane Pixie Epoxy
Morgana Minerals e/s Ectoplasm (A bright green used on the lid.)
Morgana Minerals e/s Coraline (Soft but still bright peachy/coral color used in the crease.)
Fyrinnae e/s French Vanilla Shake (On the brow bone.)

Mascara

lips-
Nyx Round Lipstick in Tea Rose

Drusiclla is a little warped- fotd

If you watch Buffy then you will know who Druscilla is. A slightly psychotic (ok mostly psychotic.) vampire who is Spikes girlfriend in the second season. I honestly haven't even finished the second season so I'm unsure how it ends. I know I'm a terrible fan but I rarely finish shows I become to emotionally invested into. -.- I know weird right? Ah it happens with anime too, that's why I didn't finish Gundam Wing until recently. DON'T JUDGE ME. *runs into a corner*
I'm back at school so expect more low key looks with just my eyes. I'd rather wear eye make-up over face make-up. Although it was very chilly at home so I'm hoping it will be cool here to. ENOUGH ABOUT THE WEATHER. ON TO THE LOOK!

Lips-
Red colored chapstick

Ok several annoying questions for you pierced folk. I'd really like to get a monroe piercing ( Thank you Miss Wendi of Make-up Zombie and Phyrra for inspiring me.) and maybe my ears stretched. Since mentioning it to my fiance he'd like to get his ears stretched as well. Does one go to a piercing salon to get your ears stretched or should you just work up to it by yourself? I hope you all had a good a good Labor day! <3 <3

Introducing The Plums and Roses-fotd

Ha ha instead of Guns and Roses it's Plums and Roses. Yeah. I'm lame so what. Actually today is my fiance's Birthday. In two days is my Mom's so I have only one more cake to bake after this one. I'm the cake baker since I enjoy cooking for the most part. Sadly the awesome dinner I made yesterday got my family sick so I'm barred from making my fiance's. >.<

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Aromaleigh e/s in Malaga ( A soft warm mauve-berry pinks shade used on the lid.)
Aromaleigh e/s in Frutti Di Bosco ( A complex deep blue- purple used in the crease.)
Aromaleigh e/s in amarena ( A sheer pink highlighter used on the brow bone.)
N.Y.C. liquid eyeliner in black
Milani eyeliner in black
mascara

lips-
Standard Nyx Tea Rose

I'm really going to miss Aromaleigh, though I wasn't a heavy buyer you always have a special connection with your first mineral company. I think what I'll miss the most are the little sparkles in the eyeshadow, especially the type that were in the Lost in Faerie collection eyeshadows. Those were my all time favorite shadows. If I could buy the whole set I would.
I read that Morgana Minerals has similar quality eyeshadow. I've bought lipstick from there which I love but I haven't bought any eyeshadow yet. What do you ladies think of Morgana? What eyeshadows do you think I should try? :D

Galaxy of Glitter Mask-Contest Entry

It's in the middle of the night and you feel a tug at your heart. You sit straight up in bed, feeling the heat of some ones gaze upon you. Dazed you look around your room, you are alone. Carefully you move out of bed trying not to disturb your cat, dog or lover. The blinds are full of light. Half slits of beaming shine flash on your bedroom floor. You tug on the string to pull the blinds out to get a good look out side. The moon shines through your window, casting an erie gleam to the air outside. Past the moon you can see millions of galaxies. They are dancing, spinning just for you. Nebulas, stars, and planets all turning to the beat of the universe. You close your eyes because the beauty is to great. A single tear slides down your cheek. You will always remember the night where the galaxies glittered just for you. Even if it was a dream.

Oh boy was this tough but fun to do. I did this for Rebellious Make-up's amazing contest. The idea is to create a mask using only make-up and then recreate in a wearable way. There are a lot of great prizes which I must admit lured me in. The tiny star earrings you get when you win first prize are adorable plus Julissa makes you something with duct tape. Her bows are really cute you should check them out on her etsy and see a few on her blog. (Please check Blog Role for some reason I can never make links. :/ It's a herp derp on my part I'm sure.) I'm not very good at masks and I'm actually even worse with glitter but some how this came out amazing. It's kind of a half mask which looks good but I'm a little afraid won't be considered. I'm sorry Julissa I hope this is what your looking for. *crosses fingers*
If you haven't already seen SilhouetteScreams then you should get on that right away. It's fucking EPIC and very ska. Two things that should always be together. *nods head so hard it bangs against things*
Yeah sorry that this is a little rambley it's nearly seven in the morning. Uhm... I couldn't sleep.

What I used:

Mask-
Hard Candy Concealer (To prep the skin and prevent staining, aka a base.)
Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Purple ( The base.)
Fantasy Makers e/sDuo in Purple/Dark Purple ( Covering the outer edge of the mask lines w/dark purple blended inwards.)
Nyx e/s in lilac ( Applied on upper brow, under the eye, top of the cheek and around the eye to fill in the rest then blended.)
Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter line in Distortion ( A teal/white glitter for the next glitter to stick to.)
Aromaleigh Rocks!sonic glitter in Masquerade (Purple glitter applied in the shape of the mask.)

Face-
Stila tinted thingie + Unnamed ivory mineral shadow sample mixed together ( To make super plastic skin.)
Estea Lauder blush palette peach color( Used to contour the cheeks and chin a bit.)
Un-named ivory mineral shadow (Re-used to add more highlight.)

Eyes-
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll ( A royal purple applied in a cut crease style.)
Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Overdose ( A royal blue applied all over the lid and then down the tear duct to make a line.)
Evil Shades e/s in Nighshade ( Applied between the royal blues and purples to add more in the outer corner crease.)
Un-nameable matte ivory shadow used on brow bone.)
Urban Decay 24/7 e/l Flipside (Teal used to connect waterline with blue line down the tear duct.)
N.Y.C. Liquid e/l in Black (To make a sexy cat eye I applied w/brush and then used angled brush to make wing.)
Mascara (And shit tons of it.)

Lips-
Morgana Minerals Lipstick in Azalea Blue
Fyrinnae Lip Luster in Lollypop-pop
Fairy Tale Glitter in Fuschia (Applied on the lips.)

*wipes brow* Man I'm bushed. Thankfully this only took a bit of tape and man power to take off all that glitter. I learned from a Drag Queen that tape is the best way to remove loads of glitter. She used it on her eyes too but I honestly wouldn't recommend it since it pulls so hard. Ouchie. I'll see you guys with the wearable version of this look later on today. :D

Sinister Roses + New Blog Title

Victorian fashion rules dictate you should not look like you are wearing cosmetics to enhance your beauty. Your rouge should be soft, your lip stick red but not to red. You should be as fresh and sweet as an English Rose. I enjoy breaking the rules though. My mother taught me to apply make-up liberally like the victorians. At a young age I started wearing foundation because I went through puberty early. ( Which entails acne break outs and splochy red skin.) I didn't realize that the heavier my foundation was the more I broke out. I wore only browns or purples because I did not want to stand out. Even when I was in my goth faze I wore only black eyeliner.
I still follow the Victorian rules via face make-up. My cheeks are subtle, my lipstick soft but my eye... my eyes are the reflection of my personality, my soul, why not frame them with colors that make me happy. I re-named my blog after a tweet declaring Faeries stole my Evil Shades Lipstick in Primrose Path. (Seriously though I'm pretty sure those butt holes did. I'm so annoyed.) Er... don't tell the faeries I called them butt holes. They might curse me and steal more then just an eyeshadow sample and a lipstick. 3: I didn't change the URL because I figured it would be easier on everyone's google thingie. When I renamed Eyes and Lips to Lipstick on my Teacup and changed the URL apparently there was a google glitch and they weren't following me any more. Hmph. ( Shh it was the faeries again I'm sure.)

What I used:
Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Aromaleigh e/s in Luella ( A fresh peach shade used on the lid.)
Aromaleigh e/s in Annysia ( A bluer grass green used on the crease.)
Aromaleigh e/s in Rosina ( The perfect high lighter shade.)
Evil Shades e/s in Sinister ( A blue based bright green used as eyeliner over Pixie Epoxy.)
Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Milk
Mascara

lips-
Morgana Minerals Lipstick in Azalea Blue ( Tapped on and blended slightly to stain the lips.)

I hope every one is having a wonderful day! <3
