Oceanwater EOTD

This is the first EOTD I've done in a while... sorry, but I was really reluctant to do any looks or swatches without my holy grail Pixie Epoxy. Now it's here, so I'm taking full advantage. This is a look I did today (mind you, I'd been wearing it for several hours before I took pictures... and look how fresh it still looks! Thank you, Fyrinnae!) using two of the new shadows I got. I'm calling this EOTD Oceanwater cause of the seagreen-ness. It's not intentionally a themed look, but I'm throwing it into the Water Trilogy themes anyway. Here's what I used:
1. Sugar - Hi Fi Cosmetics
2. Eternal Innocence - Fyrinnae
3. Electric Stardust - Fyrinnae
4. Physician's Formula 2-in-1 liner in Ultra Black
5. Dragon's Wing - Fyrinnae
6. NYC Black liner
7. Golden Fair matte base - Everyday Minerals

That's all for now. Tell me what you think and thanks for reading!

Water Trilogy: Farworlder EOTD (A bit pic-heavy!)

This is the second Water Trilogy look I've posted so far and I'm really happy with how it turned out, hence the many many pictures! It's called Farworlder which, in the books, is an alien species kind of like super-genius octopi... octopuses? octopoda? Well it's one of those. They're mostly described as being purple or reddish, so here's the look!
I used:
1. Oasis - Pure Luxe
2. Mystic - Fyrinnae
3. Conjuror - Fyrinnae (I LOVE this color)
4. N/A
5. Molten - Pure Luxe
6. Oasis - Pure Luxe
7. Likelike - Shiro


I tried one picture without flash but since I actually did this look at night there was no sunlight to photograph this in and the picture turned out all yellowy in the artificial light, which I thought looked pretty yuck with the colors I used. See?

So the rest of these are taken with flash, which made the aqua sparkles super-prominent but I liked the smokiness of this look... I wish the pictures showed it better. It symbolizes my makeup application evolution: I can now properly blend and all that jazz!

Here are the rest of the pictures. As always, click for the full size. Ignore the stupid bug bite near my eyebrow, I don't know how it happened since bugs should all be dead or in hiding this cold time of year!

Here's that super-sparkle coming out of hiding.



I'd love to know what you think, drop me a comment! Have an awesome Thursday!

Water Trilogy Theme?

I may be getting a little carried away with all these themes. But I'm having lots of fun! Hope anyone reading this is enjoying it too. It's giving me tons of inspiration for new looks. :)
Here's the latest thing I've come up with while browsing my heavily laden bookshelves. The Water Trilogy is written by Kara Dalkey and I picked them up about a decade ago (in an airport nonetheless!) and fell in love. If you haven't already guessed I'm a huge sucker for fantasy. Stating the obvious though so I'll move on. This EOTD was inspired by the first book, titled Ascension, and the look itself I named Purple-blue Sixty-five. I got several compliments on this one. Here's what I used:
1. Mirage - Pure Luxe
2. Wicked - Fyrinnae
3. Faerie Glamour - Fyrinnae
4. N/A
5. Wicked - Fyrinnae
6. Faerie Glamour - Fyrinnae
7. Golden Fair matte base - Everyday Minerals

Tell me what you think! Comments/questions, and I should have some more stuff up for review as soon as my Scaredy Cat and Hi Fi orders arrive :) Wishing you all fast shipping times and lots of sparkle!
