Boy oh boy, this is a tough week!
As such, here's just a Face of the Day I did at some point in the last few days. I had so much going on, I don't even remember when I wore it! I do remember getting compliments on it (from two guys, no less!), which given the crassness of the look did surprise me. But hey, who doesn't love a compliment? Especially one related to your makeup technique? "It's so flawlessly blended, it looks airbrushed, wow!" You don't hear that one every day, so that really made me happy.
Without further ado and because more work is yelling at me that it wants to get done, I give you the Vampire Mermaid!
Pouty McPouterson says "Pout!"
I'd seen a look on Facebook that combined red under the eyes with black on top and loved it, but when I went to do my makeup that morning, I just didn't feel like black. So I went with this gorgeous bluish turquoise colour that I mixed from different shadows in a Sephora palette.
The red is two Kosmetik Kosmo eyeshadows: Höllenfeuer and Bordeauxgold right along the lashline and then blended with a super red MAC blush (which I actually bought to have a true red, matte eyeshadow and have never even used as a blush).
The undereye area looks a little paler in some of the pics than it did in real life. In person, it was much more blood-red. Which was the whole point and really made it look a bit ghoulish.
I had some nude lipstick on to go with it all but by the time I snapped the pictures, it had faded a lot, which is why it doesn't really show up. Oh well!
Stay beautiful, inside and out,
Anna
