Makeup: Peacocky, grey and Effie Trinket inspired masquerade

Hi guys, so a little while ago me and my friends went to the masquerade and I did my plus two of my friend's make up. The grey mask is what I made on my friend, but I don't want to post pictures of her on my blog without asking.
 - LESS TALK, MORE MAKE UP!

This is my friend's make-up, she wore a cute black dress and went for a classic mask. This was done off a picture she found on google but unfortunately I don't have the source.

Originally this was also with rhinestones but I didn't have any face glue and my friend didn't want to use nail polish as glue ;)

So this is me, with the wig and the hat. Looks kind of awkward to be honest ;)

But I really did like the look, crazy with pink all over the eyes going out onto the cheeks, super pink lips only right on the center to kind of create a heart shape. As you can see I also filled my eyebrows in with black eyeshadow, to go with the whole... Extravagant all-over-the-place look.

I was incredibly inspired by Effie Trinket and the Capitol from the Hunger Games movie, I wore a big red skirt which looked awesome. I DO have a picture, but I look really fat, which I am so that's probably why  :D

So this is my friend and old roomie, Oz the OZsum ;) haha.. Funny funny, anyway, it's hard to see but a peacocky look. Surprisingly easy actually, just a little colour and liner madness! This was also done of a picture in vintageortacky's (on YouTube) tutorial, if you wanna see that.

Hope you liked it and were inspired. I think everybody who loves make up should go out on a limb a little and try something crazier than just everyday and party make up, it's fun an challenging. I think that maybe in the future I wall do more masquerade make up looks just because I noticed that the amount of tutorials and pictures is a bit limited. (You know, in MY opinion d: )

I like! NINE

Hi guys, do you know the movie Nine? I'm not too keen on it as a whole but I still do enjoy it. These two songs I especially like!

 

They make me sing and dance and feel like I'm hot like Fergie and a dancer like Kate Hudson ;)

Ciao!

Haul: Easter holiday 2012

Hi guys, I've just been home for easter for 10 days, and of course that means a haul even though I wasn't supposed to be shopping. Bad bad me, shame on me!

As you might or might not know, last summer I bought sunscreen and aftersun from Piz Buin. The brand is a bit pricey in my opinion but the quality and luxury makes up for that. So I decided to buy a special one for the face while it was on sale.

To the left some mouthwash from Jordan with extra fluoride because I get ALOT of cavities and my dentist is all like FLUORIDE FLUORIDE FLUORIDE. And to the right some henna hair-dye. After using all those chemicals I thought I'd try to use this natural henna.

My aunt was kind enough to buy me a little kit (it also contained fake lashes but I simply can't work those). The eyeshadow triplet is really really nice! I really do like it and the eyeliner is kind of a black brown kohl which is also really nice and glides on smoothly.

They had the most awesome perfume sale! Waaaah, so I got a 100ml nice light clean flowery smelling perfume, the one to the left and a small other one to the right. Unfortunately I accidentally grabbed the wrong perfume box when I left so I bought THE WRONG PERFUME. And it reeks! I don't like it! So I'm trying to find someone who likes it and then give it to them ;)

(Papillon D'amour from Linn Young to the left and Birds Poetry from Sense of Eden to the right)

And the, to the dollar store! Lots of different nail polishes and some glue for fake nails.

- Hope you had a good easter, lots of love from Elk.

A warning about jewelries from H&M

Hi guys, I just wanted to warn you a little about jewelry from H&M. Even though it's beautiful and very nicely priced, it breaks somewhat easily. Two of my fingerrings have broken, one I didn't even get to wear, it broke when I tried it. One stud earring I bought, I also didn't get to wear, it also broke when I tried it. A bracelet, broke in a few days and when I fixed it just broke another place. I think I had it for about a week. And now, my beloved white chocolate ring. :(

So I'm not saying that you shouldn't buy jewelry from H&M, just be sure to pick a piece that looks less likely to break and be prepared if it does.

And before someone comments and say that I can just glue this back together, I do realize that but I still think it's very very annoying!

My favorite toothpaste!

.. and it's my favorite, for one reason only! (Except the fact that it cleans my teeth of course..)

SPIDERMAN TOOTHPASTE!! Spiderman is my favorite superhero, so imagine my face when I saw this fantastic toothpaste! Unfortunately, I've used it all up :(

I need to get some more! Remember, never loose you childishness!

Makeup: Bronze with some blue using H&M eyeshadow palette

Hi guys, just wanted to show you my make-up today. I used my eyeshadow palette from H&M, the quality is really really nice and I really like this palette. I love the blue, but kind of have a hard time figuring out exactly where to place it so I like to experiment a little.

Hope you have a nice day!
