Dame Edna inspired look

I am not to crazy about the new Mac collection, which was inspired by Dame Edna....but because I am such an addict I was wondering if I could pull of some of the eyecolours.....

I tried to recreate to colors of the Royal Tour trio but I used Mac Climate Blue, Pink Mauve and Helium. I used Climate Blue as a liner also, the blush is Pretty Baby beauty powder and on my lips I have Pink Manish l/g (which was not a good choice btw)....
After this look was finished I realized that I would not buy this eye trio, do you agree??

Thanks for watching anyway!

EOTD using Nars Night series eyeshadows

I don't know if any of you remembered last year's Nars Night Series Mini palette? The palette itself looked so great but it was soooo difficult to work with.....I try to use it a couple of times but I was never happy with the result.


Yesterday I've decided to give the palette another chance and this is the look that came out....




This is what I've used:

- paintpot Mac Nice Vice & Bare Study (outer & inner lid)
- e/s Nars Night Fever (outer corner & crease)
- e/s Nars Night Star (inner corner)
- e/s Nars Night Fairy (middle eyelid )
- e/s Mac Shroom (browbone)
- Mac Kohl power pencil Feline (tightlinen upper lashline and in the waterline)

It's always a shame that glitters and shimmer are difficult to capture in a picture....

Thanks for watching!

Electroflash Polar Opposites EOTD

Well.....I wanted to try some of my Electroflash eyeshadows tonight, so I tried to copy the Mac facechart Polar Opposites....not really my own creation, but I did it by myself anyway!!

I also tried the Penultimate eyeliner from the Chill collection and I had to say that it worked out great!!!! It's very easy to use and gives a great result, the coverage is perfect and it's really black, not grey.....I think many ladies will love Mac for creating this eyelinerpen,because it is really very simple to use!! I'm sure now everone can create a perfect eyeliner....

This is what I used and were everything is put.....;-)

EYES

Fill in brows with Concrete Eye Shadow and a 266 Brush. Pat on Blackground Paint Pot to the lids with a 239 Brush, followed by Hot Contrast (solid shade) Mineralize Eye Shadow in the inner and outer portion of the eye. Apply Polar Opposite (solid shade) Mineralize Eye Shadow to the centre of the eye and blend easily using a 213 Brush. Starting from the corner of the upper lashline apply Boot Black Liquid Eye Liner. Using a 219 Brush, shade the whole lower lashline with Hot Contrast (solid shade) Mineralize Eye Shadow and Polar Opposite (marble shade) Mineralize Eye Shadow. Slather on Zoomblack Zoom Lash Mascara to the top and bottom lashes.

Thanks for looking!!!

FOTD using Electroflash & Sonic Chic

Today I finally had some time to record some video's to put up on Youtube......they are not all uploaded yet, but they will be tomorrow!!

I did a look using the Electroflash eyeshadow Hot Contrast, the Sonic Chic blush Gentle and the Electroflash lipstick Fast Thrill....amongst others.

I also used:
Cle de Peau concealer in Ochre
Laura Mercier mineral foundation Pure Honey
Mac Blot powder dark
Mac Paintpot Bare Study
Mac Plushlash mascara

These are the results.....



The eyeshadow is very pigmented, I was suprised a little bit because the other ones I own are not as pigmented as these....but I was happily surprised!
The blushes from Sonic Chic are really great, they have super colour pay off and no shimmer....not like the MSF's at all, but they are great nonetheless! And very pigmented too....use these carefully,because it's easy to apply to much on your brush. Oh....they are best to apply with a flat top brush I think or with the 181 brush that comes with this collection!
This is the whole look! If you have any questions, please let me know!

Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field and Future earth haul!!!

Last week my Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field and Future Earth haul came in.....I love it!!
