Whisper Some Silver Reply

I know that it's been months, but I warned you about that.

I've been feeling inspired by one of my favorite musicals, Spring Awakening. The song lyrics have a number of colors in it, and I was inspired by the music. I'd like for this to be a series, but I don't know if that will ever happen. The first song is "The Guilty Ones". There's a line in it that says ...And whisper some silver reply. So I came up with this look. Sorry about the lighting, but I have an unsatisfactory camera situation.




 

  • MAC Soft Ochre paint pot
  • MAC Surf the Ocean pigment stack (the silver)
  • NYX matte Black
  • Wet 'n Wild You Had Me At Hello
  • Urban Decay Gunmetal eyeshadow
  • Urban Decay Creep eyeshadow
  • Coastal Scents Warm palette
  • Some Wet 'n Wild mascara
  • Some Physicians Formula liquid eyeliner pen

 

Sorry there's no full face shot; I was too lazy to do this on more than one eye. It's hard enough for me to do symmetrical winged liner, much less thick, winged eyeshadow. Feel free to use makeup remover to make a sharp edge. Also, lining the edge with a light eyeshadow makes it pop more.

Do you like musicals?

Rainbow Rave

A new look! Bright colors!


















Eyes:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Nyx Jumbo Eye Shadow Pencil: Milk
Inglot Square Eyeshadow 371 Matte
Inglot Square Eyeshadow 60 AMC 
BH Cosmetics 88 Matte Palette
Elf liquid eyeliner Black(don't recommend)
NYC High Definition Volume Mascara
MAC Studio Fix powder




Okay, not my most interesting look, but I wore this to a neon dance over the summer. It was simple and it looks great on brown eyes.  I really wished that I had those eye shadows that glow under black-light by Sleek.  That would have creeped people out, though. Those or Sugarpill eye shadows would have been fantastic.

I hope that you enjoyed this look anyway, despite its simplicity. See you next time!

Under the Sea: A Tutorial

And now I'm back with a look! Albeit a look I posted on my youtube channel over a year and a half ago, but better late than never!




And again, my bad camera face rears its ugly head. Awesome.







Eyes:

·         Too Faced Shadow Insurance
·         Urban Decay cream eyeshadow in Moonshine
·         MAC Gorgeous Gold
·         Wet n Wild Blue Had me at Hello (all colors except for grey)
·         Merle Norman Dusty Rose 

       
Lips:
·         Revlon Candy Pink Lipstick
·         NYX lipgloss
 

So this is a look that I did January 2012 that featured the Wet 'n Wild Blue Had Me at Hello palette.  I really liked this look and actually wore it a couple times. It never ceases to amaze me how good blue looks on brown eyes. Oh, I guess I'll link the video here.  Bare in mind, this video had awful lighting. Terrible. It kept turning orange!  Ah well, it still wasn't too bad...hopefully.

Anyway, tell me if you're excited to see another look from me, because I have a couple pictures of one that I might post.  I probably will even when this post gets not comments on it.  Well, I'm happy to be blogging again, either way! Oh, and I'm setting this post to post on the first day of school for me. Wish me luck with Senior Year!
