Kingdom Hearts FOTD pt. 2

I'm not sure I announced anything about this, but I am putting together a video game inspired makeup series. Some of you may know that I absolutely love video games; aside from work, it consumes nearly all my time :D This series won't necessarily by my attempt to look like a certain character, but rather the colour schemes of the game case, game characters & the game in general.

Since I liked my other Kingdom Hearts look so much, I decided to do another one. This time, I've based the colours on the new title for DS, KH Re:Coded. The shape I used for this was inspired by the lettering on the case, bold, open & flowy-like text. I don't do this look often & cutting the crease is still something I'm working on. I would love to hear your thoughts, tips & ideas! Anyway, here's the look:








What I used:
NYX White eyeshadow base on the entire lid, crease & brow
Ben Nye Sun Yellow lumiere creme colour on the middle of the lid
Sugarpill Tako eyeshadow on inner & outer corners and to highlight
Sugarpill Goldilux loose shadow on the middle of the lid, applied wet
MAC Smoulder eye kohl to cut the crease & on lower lash line
Sugarpill Bulletproof eyeshadow on crease & lower lash line
MAC All That Glitters eyeshadow above crease & pulled into the highlight

The next wave of looks for this series will be from Final Fantasy! I'll also take requests for this, too.
Now....back to gaming 8D

Kingdom Hearts inspired FOTD

Hi everyone! So it's been 2 months since my last post :( Ugh! Things for me have been all over the place. I really wanted to keep this blog active, but I've been surrounded with many family issues as well as my own. Part of my New Years Resolution is to really get this ball rollin' :) I have great intentions for this blog & hope to become muuuuch more active.

Anyway. Today I have a look that I am incredibly pleased to share. Some of you may know what a gigantic gamer I am. Generally, I'd rather game than even do makeup :P So I decided to sorta meld my two love interests together & created a makeup look.







I tried basing the look off the case of the games :) I generally never touch blue eyeshadow, but I really liked the outcome of this. Here's what I used;

Too Faced Shadow Insurance as a base.
NYX jumbo eye pencil in Pots & Pans on the inner 2/3 of the ...lid
MAC Metalblu shitty ass metallic creme shadow on the outer lid, then i tossed it into the trash.
NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk applied under the brows & blended downward.

Sugarpill Tiara loose eyeshadow on the inner 2/3, applied wet
Sugarpill Royal Sugar loose eyeshadow on the outer lid + crease, applied wet
Sugarpill Afterparty eyeshadow on the crease
Sugarpill Bulletproof eyeshadow on the outer crease
MAC Clear Sky Blue pigment on & above the crease
Sugarpill Tako eyeshadow under the brows & heavily blended into clear sky blue
Tako eyeshadow also applied heavily into the inner "v" & pulled upward into the inner crease.
Random blue & silver eye liners from Cover Girl on lower lashline.
Bulletproof, Royal Sugar & Tiara all applied to the lower lashline.
Random Red Cherry lashes
Too Faced Lava Gloss eyeliner

I hope you enjoy this look! I will be trying my hardest to be more active on here & in terms of doing my makeup more often. I do want to continue doing a brand of the week/month thing & also want to post tonnnsss of reviews :)

Hope you all had a great holiday! <3
