I don't really use so much makeup in weekdays. Just some basic things. Now I might use a bit more skin products as my skin is again being an ass, but yeah.
This is my casual worklook, and sometimes I won't even use eyeshadow with eyeliner. And sometimes I even leave the down lid liner out, but I always have my winged eyeliners on. No wonder my eyeliners tend to end so fast...
So I put just dark color in the crease to "raise" my eyelids as I have heavy eyelids and deep set eyes. An every make up hobbyist's nightmare. But I have learnt to work with them. Nowadays I actually kinda like my eyes.
And see, some light freckles!

Shiro Cosmetics Review!
So here it finally is, though not fully as I have managed to lose my Hearts one...
I found Shiro Cosmetics accidentally when I was surfing online. I had wanted to buy from there for ages, but never really managed to. But then I finally bought something and I was totally sold. My best friend bought me a set of makeup from Shiro cosmetics for my birthday, so my collection just keeps getting bigger!
Here my babies are (it's missing Hearts. Where could it be O__O). I was very happy with the quality for all of them, and the names are just hilarious in some of them. And the colors... whoa.
I put eyeshadows on the NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk and well just slapped intertubes on my skin. I used the inner side of my arm as it is the softest skin I have (I have a very dry skin).
Why not Zoidberg?: A beautiful summer color. It was actually colder and redder on my skin than on the picture in the site, but it does not bother me. Easy shade to use every day.
Sad Keanu: A reddish, dark purple. This looks very nice on lips too, but you need definitely a mirror applying it. With some lipliner I think it would be stunning.
Diamonds!: A very bright, light teal. Not a color I would use on myself but I have couple of people in my mind who would rock this.
Snake: A bright chartreuse/lemon/lime. It is actually more yellow than I thought, but paired with green it gets a nice lime hue. Very, very bright!
Beyond the fence: A dark, foresty green with gold in it. This is like it is created for my eyecolor - it makes the small amount of green pop. One of my "trustful" eyeshadows nowadays.
You dropped your rod: A blackened gold. Goes beautifully with Beyond the fence.
Lingered in twilight: A blackened emerald/Teal. Damn I drooled when I saw this. This looks amazing if you have blue or blue green eyes! Best base for it would be NYX Jumbo pencil in Black Bean, or some dark teal.
Majora's mask: A darkish lavender with rainbow sparkles. It is hard to capture it's beauty on a photo, it looks amazing in real life.
Evolve: Bright royal blue. A blue I have been hunting with cats and dogs.
Little brother: Shiny silver. I have noticed I don't really own any grey/silver eyeshadows, so I had to fix the situation. This is very metallic.
Alkahestry: A vibrant lavender with turquoise sparkles. Would look purely amazing on very pale blue eyes.
Farore's wind: Mid toned teal. This one surprised me! It is very light in the jar, but on skin it gets this dark grey hue, making it look mystical.
Steve.: Bright teal. I should try this as a liner sometimes...

Gosh, that was a long post. More reviews coming soon!

Green gold
Heya again.
So, I wanted to put some more make up for work as I have really just put on some eyeliner for a while, I really have not been in a mood to do a make up. My stress level is at the ceiling and my skin is showing it - finally when it started to be normal again it broke out with cute stress pimples and flaked badly with dryness. I can never win.
But hey, I have finally found a face washing product that does not make my skin want to walk away - Lush's Coalface. It looks so rad as it is a black soap and makes darkish grey foam, but it works very well on my skin. It is the only one that has worked at all - all the other ones just makes my skin very pissed off. Even now when my stress shows on my skin Coalface helps a lot. I actually like their other stuff too, but I usually forget to visit the shop :D Now I have Porridge and Coalface on my shelf. The salesperson was so kind when she gave me samples of Fresh pharmacy and Coalface when I explained my skin situation - thank you if you ever read this!
So here you go. I used some trustful moss greens and some golden. And the only black thing in this make up is actually the mascara - the liner is beautiful foresty green from GOSH. Xtreme liner was the name I think? They don't sell them anymore, which is a pity as they are very, very good and comes off only with waterproof make up remover, but easily. They had very beautiful colors - too bad I lost my lagoon teal colored one years ago.
I used NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk as a base, and the inner corner is H&M eyeshadow, middle gold is Shiro Cosmetics You dropped your rod and the green in the outer corners is Beyond the fence from Shiro Cosmetics too. Seems like I have found my favourite eyeshadow brand... And as you can see, the light was not my friend today. It never really is as I burn easily, haha.
Green goes with my eyes and hair very well - it always makes my eyes look very green (they are pure grey with some green in the middle) and my hair look even redder than it is. I have thought of returning to my natural golden red color but naw, it may be a bit too bland for my mostly black closet and bright messes I slap on my face. Oh and look, freckles! I don't really get freckles on my face, but for some reason my legs are always covered in them.
And here is a better pic of my hair nowadays. I actually like this pixie cut more than I thought I would like - I was scared I would be sad of losing my hair and stuff like that. I was even afraid I would look a bit too masculine, but wow. Many people has said I look like a fairy or a pixie myself now : D And now everyone is just ruffling my hair around always... And man, this is one easy hairdo to take care of. And now my hair can grow healthier! Though I may not grow it for a while. This is the best thing that has happened to my hair, even better than the earlier one when I got it.
But yeah, nothing more to say. See ya later!
