Here are a whole bunch of looks I forgot to blog! I don't remember most of the products I used in these but if you ask maybe I can try to remember. Most of these are late night experiments created out of boredom. The last look is an attempt at a different shape. I'm not sure if it works for me but practice makes perfect!

Dollar Store Dita-fotd



After a long day of class sometimes it's fun to let loose and apply more make-up over what you've got on. Sadly I don't remember exactly what I had on the eyes, all I know is that I applied a lot of eyeliner. I mean a lot. I did at least three different layers to get it perfect.
What I used:
Eyes-
TFSI
Too Faced Natural palette ( Push up placed on the lid and sexpresso used to fill in the brows heavier then normal.)
Wet n Wild Vanity palette (Dark matte brown used on the outer corner of the crease.)
Wet n Wild liquid eyeliner (Actually hate this liner. You can see it's starting to crease against my lid.)
Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner in Perversion
Tarte Lights! Camera! Lashes
lips-
Hot Topic random lip liner in red
Wet n Wild lipstick in Red Velvet
So I was thinking wouldn't it be fun if I did a Buffy characters series? I mean I haven't finished my Star Trek series...or my faerie one...or...oh man I am such a flake. Oy.

Boogie Woogie Bugel Gal-fotd
Classy and safe like your Mother's favorite perfume. Or maybe when you think of a pin-up inspired look you think of Bettie Page with her legs akimbo batting her long lashes at you. A retro kind of sexy that still smolders through the modern age. I like doing pin-up looks when I want to look classy fast. (Especially when I see my fiance's parents. They don't like my colorful make-up.) I did a pin-up inspired hair style but I couldn't get it in frame without looking silly. I was a side part with a bandana for a head band and double ponytails. I TRIED to do victory curls but I could not do them for the life of me! Maybe it's because my ends are fried from dying my hair so often. I'm not sure.
Speaking of hair dying I'm dying my hair a box brown tomorrow. It's pretty reddish brown that I've used in the past. (Like high school past.) My ends are really dry and I was wondering what I should do to re-hydrate or "fix" the broken ends. I condition daily and skip shampooing every other day. My hair has always been healthy so broken ends are new to me.
What I used:
Brows- (Pin up chicks have striking brows to define their eyes.)
Nyx Chocolate e/s (A dark brown used on the arch and outer wing.)
Nyx Sahara (Medium brown used to define and create shape.)
Eyes-
TFSI
Wet n Wild Vanity palette
-Light matte ivory used on the lid and to highlight the brow bone.
-Sandy tan matte used in the crease to create the shape, blended out softly.
-Warm chocolate matte brown used on the outer crease.
Almay liquid eyeliner in black
Milani eyeliner in black
Mascara
(Accent lashes would be ideal for this look.)
lips-
Hot Topic Red lip liner
Nyx Jumbo lip pencil in Dark Red
If you want to make this a bit more modern I suggest using a yellow on the lid with a warm chocolate brown in the crease and bright pink lips.
My bandana was thrown at me by a Macy's float worker at the Columbus Pride I went to on Saturday. If you guys are interested in seeing some pictures of the Pride parade I'll defiantly post them.

Emma Frost-X-men Fotd
Emma Frost is a bad ass. When the X-men first met Emma she was known as the White Queen in the baddy group called the Hellfire Club. She's a very selfish, haughty young woman whose powers reflect her icy nature. She can turn into a diamond and use her telecentic powers to make your boyfriend cheat on you. (Bad Scott Summers! BAD!) She is defiantly the favorite bad girl of the Marvel universe. That's why I decided to do this cool toned pin-up look. Emma doesn't need dramatic make-up to catch the guys. Her cool attitude and mental fuckery makes them wanting more.
What I used:
Face-
L'oreal True Match Concealer
Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer
Estee Lauder Bronzer in Bronze Goddess
Estee Lauder Tender Blush in Rose Nuance
Estee Lauder e/s in Pink Ice (To highlight the cheeks,bridge of the nose and cupids bow.)
Nyx e/s in Chocolate (Dark brown used to fill in the brows.)
Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Fyrinnae e/s in French Vanilla Shake (Used on the lid and brow bone.)
Estee Lauder e/s in Pale Moon and Mocha Cup (Mixed together and used on the crease for a light cool toned brown color.)
Estee Lauder e/s in Mocha Cup (A cool brown used on the lower lash line.)
Almay Liquid eyeliner in black
Estee Lauder e/s in Pink Ice (Used to highlight the eyeliner on the lid.)
Milani eyeliner in black
Nyx Jumbo e/s pencil in Milk (Used on the water line.)
Fyrinnae e/s in Calavera Cupcake (Brilliant silver used on the inner edge of the eye lid.)
Nyx loose glitter in Disco Ball (A dab of glitter used on top of the silver.)
lips-
High Voltage Amplified lipstick in New Rose (Cool toned nearly nude pink.)
What do you think? Did I do a good job representing Miss Frost? I'm thinking I may do Dazzler or Jubilee next, Polaris too. I'm sorry I'm so behind on reply to comments. I want to thank you all for taking the time to comment. It means a lot to me. Once I'm able to afford it I'll have a giveaway to thank all of you.
