1950's pinup

Instead of resting up today because I'm sick, I joined Sabrina's 1950's pinup look contest. I couldn't help it, I was bored so I just did my best! I even tried to curl my hair but...alas, teh hair would not cooperate. :/ Pff.

I used:

Face The Face Shop makeup primer in green, Ellana intense coverage foundation in hazelnut latte, Ellana finishing powder in espresso con panna, Ellana blush in lust, ELF blush in glow, Aziza blush duo for highlight

Eyes PAC palette (gold, brown and black), MAC Bagatelle e/s, Elianto shimmer e/s in Ivory, Aido shimmer/glitter powder in gold, ELF brightening eyeliner in black, Elianto stay-on eyeliner in black, no-brand false eyelashes, Aido eye putty (for lash glue), Cinema Secrets mascara

Lips Revlon lipstick in Copperglaze Brown

Please ignore the splotchiness of my skin, it's my skin asthma acting up.

I know the blush looks uneven here, but I swear it's because I had a lamp coming from the other side so it caught the shimmer and made the pink disappear. O_O

Why yes, I did dress up for this!

Look, falsies! I'm so proud of myself, it only took me one try this time!! I'm starting to love falsies...I think I'm gonna get more. :D

Here I tried a few pinup poses but they didn't really work out -- hey, it's hard to take pictures on tripod you know! Plus it was so hot, I was sweating my makeup off! Not to mention I'm sick.

I know, I need to lose some weight :(

I hope you liked it! :D I had fun.

I joined a video contest!

So I was looking around on youtube tonight, and I realized that a way for me to practice and play around with makeup is to join contests! Of course I don't really expect to win, but I hope to, so I decided after looking around to try one specific contest because it seemed really fun.

I joined BrushingOnBeauty's April makeup contest on youtube.

She had an inspiration picture, and she basically said to take it and do whatever look you wanted. Here is the inspiration picture:

Here is my entry:

I bet you're getting uber tired of seeing my red headband!

I tried to use all the colors I saw in the pictures, and I think I did it pretty well. It's a bit crazy but oh well, I had looooaaads of fun.

And of course I made a video for it--but I only made a slideshow since it's really late and I was totally too lazy to be talking XD

For what I used:

FACE Ellana Mineral Foundation in Hazelnut Latte, Ellana Finishing Powder in Espresso Con Panna, Ellana Mineral Blush in Lust, Aziza duo brush for highlight, Physician's Formula bronzer for contour

EYES artdeco eyeshadow base, PAC shimmer palette, Coastal Scents 88 palette, Elianto single shimmer e/s in Ivory, Elianto stay-on eyeliner, VOV eyeshadows, Cinema Secrets glamour eyes mascara

LIPS Cinema secrets rip roaring red 32, the color workshop lipgloss on top

What about you, what's the craziest look you've ever done?

I so totally had fun with this, and I really hope you like it! Until next time. :)
