The 'classic' Look

Hello Lovelies!

Today I present you with another creation of mine - A classic 'cateye' & red, red, red lips :)

I am usually not a gloss fan at all. I hate the sticky feeling on my lips, I hate that they run into the lines after a while and so on... BUT, I was a big brave girl this time and tried out my new MAC Cosmetics Tinted Lipglass from the Brooke Shields collection, and I must say: I <3 it! It is super pigmented and lasts for ages, not to mention the divine smell of it! The colour 'Knockout' also goes really well with a lot of bright red lippies, so it's definitely worth every penny!

I placed it over Eulenspiegel's Professional Face Paints as I like to use them to get an intense colour base. ~ My Tip: Don't apply your gloss to the very edge of your lip but about one mm inside of your lipliner/lipstick/lip contour to prevent it from feathering out too quickly.

So, as it so happens, even a gloss hater like myself *cringe* was converted... Oops!

Here is the full product list for this look!

Skin:
- Flormar's Perfect Coverage Foundation in Porcelain Ivory
- Clinique's Stay-Matte Pressed Powder in 101 Invisible Matte
- Sleek Make Up Face Contour Kit in Light

Eyes/Brows:
- NYX Cosmetics's Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk as base
- MAC Cosmetics Eyeshadows 'Fashion Beat', 'Stormy Sunset' and 'Lingering Dust' from the 'Look in a Box: All About Plum' Palette
- Maybelline New York's Master Precise Liner in black
- Dior's Addict It-Lash in black
- False Lashes from Ebay
- Brows: Grimas Pressed Eyeshadows (Palette)

Lips:
- Eulenspiegel Professional Face Paint in red as base
- MAC Cosmetics's 'Knockout' Tinted Lipglass from the Brooke Shields Collection

Brushes (All MAC):
- #187
- #150

Halloweeeeen!


Hello my beauties!

I am so sorry for the long absence, but I am bringing you some gore fun today :) --> This Halloween was an absolute blast and I got to "make-up" wonderful friends of mine! A HUGE thank you to my dears at this point. For their patience, trust and general awesomeness!

I used a lot of Eulenspiegel face paints as they are super pigmented and can be used for many different things. Also my Grimas shadow palette was a great hit for contouring the skulls and making my torn wrist wound look nice and dirty ;) ... I used a lot of MAC Cosmetics Lipsticks and Sleek MakeUP eyeshadows to create depth and dimension. If you would like a complete product list, just hit me up :-*

Until next time my lovelies!

Your Beauty Pig xoxo

Photoshoot fun!


Hello Beauties!

So here is the outcome of my latest shoot for Pussy Le Phuck rockin' their awesome 'Be Water' tee :)

I used Lime Crime's Velvetine Lippy in 'Black Velvet' as well as MAC Cosmetics and Sleek MakeUP for contouring and eyes. I'm really diggin' black lips as of late... I was always cautious of black lips incase it looked too harsh on my pale skin but I am totally IN LOVE!!! I'm debating loads of different things for Halloween and a witch is definitely on the menu ;)

What are all ya's going as on Halloween???

Glamour Doll Eyes

Hey ho peeps!

Here's a new look featuring Sleek MakeUP, p2 cosmetics and Flormar :) I wanted to try out something a little different, so this happened! I am a huge fan of eyeliner as you know, but jazzing it up a bit can be so refreshing from time to time! I used Sleek's contouring kit in light for a change, no usual pink blush :D

And I am an absolute fan of the p2 cosmetics lippies and nail polishes! For this I used 'Picaddily Circus' lipstick. They are not only super cheap but they last forever (the nail varnishes especially topped with essence high shine top coat). The lipliners are also a must-have in my make up kit, so go purchase my german monkeys :)

Toodles!

Mermaid time!

Hello Peeps!

Totally forgot to post this look from a few weeks ago! Oooops, ha ha ha! I was in the mood for some fun mermaid make up action a while ago and this just sort of happened :D

I used all Sleek Make UP and BH Cosmetics for the eyes and my favourite LimeCrime lippy in 'Airborn Unicorn' :) ... I'm using NYX Jumbo Eyepencil in 'Milk' as a base at the moment as my ArtDeco Eyeshadow base is empty and I'm really happy with it! It makes the colours pop and the pigments stick very well :)

Have a happy Sunday!

I would like to feature bands that are not that "big" or unknown, so if ye have any cool bands with albums, give me a shout :)

This weeks/months feature is Forever Ends Today, a postcore dubstep band from Dortmund, Germany. I went to their gig last week and it was amazing! They totally rocked the stage and the crowd. I picked up one of their merch tshirts, which is what I'm wearing :)

Rock 'n' Roll Princess

Good evening my Beauties!

I hope everyone had a lovely day! I was working early shift and so had time for another look this afternoon :) It was great to do make up again. With my new job, I've been pretty busy as it's full-time so I kinda slacked in the make up department a little :P

Anyways, I wanted to do a "neutral" smokey eye and for some reason I was dying for coral lips ever since a lady bought a similar colour of me today :D ... So here we are! I used all Sleek MakeUP shadows, my new Clinique Cheek Pops blusher (amazeballs btw!) and a p2 cosmetcs lippy :)

Hope ye like peeps!
