A normalish weekday make up

Hello there.
So I've been having a massive haircrisis (Yeah yeah I know, again) and beanie has been my saviour very many times nowadays. Just as today.

 

So this was my look today. I decided to try those inner corner linings, and gratefully it did not look that bad. I put some warmer brown today as my eyeshadow instead of my normal neutral ones. Then I slapped on some lipgloss from dun dun dunn, LIDL! 

 I kinda got my will to do make up back even for myself. Even though this is neutral, I have some plans of doing more halloweenish make ups this weekend. AND I will paint my nails too, now this green one is very chipped and well...

So here it is, the lipgloss from Lidl! I saw this one accidentally when I was shopping groceries with my friend, and I just had to try it. And boy I am happy about it. This is not that sticky, but it feels pleasant on lips and gives them a little bit of color and amazing shine! It is easy to apply and well, I just love it. Too bad they appear only sometimes into Lidl, as I would want to try more of their cosmetics. Their facial lotion has been my favourite a while, but my skin is now getting even dryer than usual so I have to think up some solutions. 

Haha, sorry for the quality, but I just had to post this one too. This is actually my hair on it's natural state - picture taken by myself back at 2008. It is close now, and the roots are showing fast. They are a bit odd colored now, but they turn into strawberry blonde when they grow. I am thinking of not coloring this until this is about bobcut lenght. We'll see how long I can last...

See ya next time. Next time I might be bearing some good news!

I got an Instagram!

So I decided to get one to make one. Not sure really why. Just some make up etc stuff.

Pink copper

Again here I am.

So my friend S decided to text me that she wanted me to paint her face with some of my make ups, so I was like "K" ja she came to my home, and the painting begun. We actually had to use my sunlight lamp to imitate natural light as there were very little of it left.

I had this copper eyeshadow pigment from Inglot from doing my friend's graduation make up, and it really looks beautiful on green and grey eyes. S has very, very bright green eyes and the copper makes them pop out even more! I added some duochrome copper eyeshadow too to put a small twist on a normal eyeshadow, and I love this sunset copper-pink tone. I have actually one nailpolish like that! The sunset pigment is from Inglot too, I don't really own much from them but their pigments are amazing. Though now I am drooling the Sugarpill Heartbreaker palette, as I have drooled it for an eternity... Maybe next month :D

And here you go, the full look! Well we did not put anything else but eyemakeup this time but S has a great skin so she really does not need any skin makeup. And this was basically a test as the last time I tried to do her make up I failed :D But this time I managed to make it look nice.

So. Halloween is coming. It seems like I should have an excuse to do some extreme make up with SFX effects. We'll see...

Oh. And I am now in my natural haircolor. And now I remember why I dye it - I look so... mild. So I will be dyeing it soon again.

Black and gold

Hello there.
We had a photoshoot with my friends, mainly about corsets. I was so slow with making my make ups, mainly because of my migraines (need new glasses again, damnit). But I was happy with these results, even though they were quite simple.

 So I used some Isadora eye pencil to make the black wing as it is really dreamy to blend to other colors, and it is an easy way to make a dramatic look. Then I used some Shiro cosmetics gold, You dropped your rod and some Inglot's gold pigment.

It was dark. DARK. Finland is already too dark for any pictures and gah. But gold looks just awesome on this model.

I was just very afraid that my model's skin would get pissed, as she has got even more dry skin that I have. But it seems like she survived.

Oh hi I am alive

So.

Remember my last post when I was feeling better? I was. For a day. Some weird virus hit me like a wrecking ball (eehehee) and raised nice fever etc etc, and even my breath was whining oddly. I was like "Nooo I'll be just fine in few days.

Quess what chicken butt. Nope.

It went on for weeks, and I had to go to the doctor. They took some pics of my lungs and I was kinda terrified, and wanted just go to home and sleep more. I slept about 10-12 hours every night then! And that is the reason I have been this silent - I really haven't done any makeups for a while. Now I am starting again, but I am still a bit drained from the virus.

But oh well, I'm alive. There will be looks.

Aaaand I busted my knee again. It seems like it does not want to get healthy again. And all I will say to my knee right now is: Mene roskiin polvi.
