In Short Snow White is a Bitch-fotd/New hair






So I dyed my hair close to it's natural color. I won't lie, I miss the red something fierce. Most of my life people have been telling me I look like Snow White since I have dark hair and pale skin. The thing is, I hate Snow White. When I was six my parents took me to see an out door play version of Snow White. I was really looking forward to seeing the play because Snow White was my favorite Princess at the time. (I had just gotten over the Ariel hair eating phase.) I watched Snow White walk by, talking to the Evil Queen about leaving to get food. I couldn't understand why a Princess would talk to her Evil Step Mother let alone go to lunch with her. Five minutes later the play was called off. My Dad joked about how Snow White eating a bad apple but I knew the real reason. I couldn't believe a Princess would do something like that! I've had a grudge for Snow White ever since.

What I used:

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
High Voltage e/s in Electric Boogie (SPARKLY light royal blue eyeshadow used on the lid.)
High Voltage e/s in Teenage Riot (Multi-dimensional navy used in the crease.)
Concrete Minerals e/s in White Rabbit (White with a pink duo-chrome used to highlight.)
Almay Liquid eyeliner in black
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Oil Spill (Thanks Natalie!)
Mascara
*KKcenterhk A229 lashes (Review coming shortly.)


Lips-
Nyx Round Lipstick in Rae
Nyx Round Lipstick in Tea Rose (To add some pink to the yellow toned Rae.)

Today I TRIED not to get the wonky crease by drawing out the crease from the lash line to the actual crease with an angled brush. I think the problem might be that I'm putting my crease color up to high and then not blending it out.
Oh my gosh I have so many reviews to write and so many swatches to do! Sorry I haven't been posting as much make-up looks. I really haven't been wearing much make-up. >.<

*These lashes were sent to me for free by KKcenterhk for reviewing purposes.

Blue is the Color that Lives in Side Me- FOTD + Kitteh






This little black kitten is the most trouble we've had in the house since my youngest brother was a baby. She likes climbing up walls, chewing on wires and giving me heart attacks when she walks on the ledge of our stairs. This kitten is a fucking dare devil. She's cutest when she sleeps, not so cute when she's clawing my feet. (You can see her clawing my feet in one of the above pictures.)
Anyway I placed an oder with High Voltage Cosmetics yesterday night. The owner Jasmine is really sweet and a great person to talk to on twitter. I'd been admiring her shadows for a while so I bought several samples. She is having a two for one eyeshadow deal right now so go and buy!
You should also check out Evil Shades which has free shipping right now. Morgana Minerals has a 25% off coupon on twitter that works through till later on tonight. Veronica of Hi-Fi cosmetics is taking a break till September and she is having a really awesome sale as well. Sadly Aromaleigh is closing forever today. I hope you got your fill of sparkle. ( I know i didn't.)
Enough of my blathering on to the look!

I had a picture of the nails but they looked silly. :(
I'm terrible at applying nail polish. I apply to little or to much then it dries funny or I go to pick something up and it gets dented. Pooey. What's the right way to apply nail polish? Should there be a lot on the brush or just a little? Thank you ladies!
