Spooky or Cute?

Hey,
     I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I was wondering would you wear this? or do you think this is just a little spooky looking with these specific colors? 
   
       Well as far as this look when I did it I was like eehhh, it is cute, but I felt I wouldn't ever wear it out. But to be honest I love wild and crazy make-up looks so that means that ummm duh, I have totally falling in love with this technique. This wide eyed cat look it amazing on anyone especially people who have a smaller lid area it is just great to make your eyes look bigger. Also, keep in mind you can use any colors to create this.

Colorful Spiked Eyes

Halloween Anyone? 

I hope your day has been good so far. I just wanted to write a little about this particular make-up look that I created on myself. I orginally wanted to make it an extreme wearable look and yes "wearable" but kinda got carried away with COLOR. This was so fun to do, but took a long time mainly because I wasn't quite sure where I was trying to take this look. This would be a cute make-up look for halloween especially if your like me and never really dresses up, but wants to do something creative.   


What did I do?
I used a white eyeshadow base all over my eye and kinda got carried away and used it to make my skin look even more ghostly white. Then, used several of the chubby eyeshadow pencils to make my spikes on my eye and lower lash line trying to make the lines as straight as possible. Then, picked out the colors I wanted to use to fill in my spikes. The lips are really cool I used a lip balm first and then put a green eyeshadow on top, and in the center to give it an ombre kinda look I used a gold to show that my lips had some dimension. Oh and as for my eyebrows I colored them with a white chubby pencil and place shadows on top just to lighten and color them you know just depending on which side your doing.

I think this would look completely awesome to have both eyes look the same using which ever side is your favorite.

I hope you enjoyed this post like I said before this was so fun. 
XOXO

Makeup Tip # 2: Eyeshadow

“Hmmmm… have you ever wondered what is the point of wearing eyeshadow?” Well in my opinion eyeshadow is worn to draw attention to the eyes, to give the eyes more definition, and of course it makes us feel gorgeous :D. However, not all eyeshadow forms are easy to apply, nor do they do any justice for your eyes.
Eyeshadows can be complicated to apply depending on what form you have chosen to use. When choosing eyeshadows you want to try to use colors that best complement not only your skin tone but your personality. No matter what your skin tone is, all that matters is your self confidence. When wearing bright, bold, or neutrals colors on your eyes; you should make sure that your personality shows through in your creation.
Types Eyeshadow:
  • Powders
  • Loose Eyeshadow
  • Pigment Eyeshadow
  • Mineral Eyeshadow
  • Compact Eyeshadows (original) :D
  • Cream Eyeshadow
  • Pencil Eyeshadow
  • Liquids Eyeshadow
** I am sure there are other types these are just the most common ones. **
When applying eyeshadows you should take into consideration about what you are using to apply them with. Most people do not think that it truly matters what you use to apply the shadows with, but it is almost as important as it is to pick out what colors you’re going to use. When choosing the right brushes to use it helps create a beautiful picture on your eyelids. (Not literally) :D

Types of Brushes:
  •  All over the eye Brush
  •  Crease Brush
  •  Blending Brush
  •  Highlighting Brush
In my own personal opinion I feel to create a more defined, beautiful, and clean look these are the brushes to use.
Thank you for reading if you have any questions please ask :D I will be glad to help in any way possible. I hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday.
XOXO
