This. Is my face.

Updated the lipstick pictures (except one) in one of my old posts!!!

This post only serves to show my face. There is not really much else here this time, because what I'm working on takes time x)

On Monday I went to see David Fincher's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which is a great movie with awesome music by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, and people should go see that movie, see the original movies, and read the books! So yeah, I wanted to look a bit more presentable than on an average day which I would spend inside my room in my pyjamas, and without make-up.

I present you:
Eyes:
beauty uk eye shadow collection 1 only the brown shades),
M.A.C. gel eyeliner (Blacktrack),
M.A.C. Studio Fix Lash mascara,
Lips:
Sleek make-up lipstick Amped 781

Wet hair is wet :I

I really like Gosh's X-Ceptional Wear foundation, since it just kind of absorbs into my skin and adapts to it while still covers well, and it feels like it just looks better the longer I wear it :D
Besides, I don't need to spend so much money on powders since I really don't need a super powder with this foundation :3

On Tuesday I went to see War Horse, which also a great movie, and I had trouble keeping my emotions in shape, and I actually even cried at few points. Tom Hiddleston is truly amazing in that movie.
Luckily enough my make-up stayed on surprisingly well, but I had taken a picture before I left the house, just in case.

Eyes:
Famous Trio Eye Collection midnight,
M.A.C. gel eyeliner
M.A.C. Studio Fix Lash mascara
wet 'n' wild eyeliner
Lips:
Sleek make-up Mystic 783

Lazy make-up is lazy.

The darker eye shadow looks really dark, almost black, which amuses me since in reality it's just dark blue.


The dark blue on the right is the one I used for the corners.

I originally got this palette so I could do the scales, and eyes for Mystique. Remember, this one?

Yeah. I didn't have the right shade of blue for it, so had to get one. Because the cream make-up doesn't work that well alone on the scales, painted with liquid latex:

The cream make-up covers them okay, but they stay lighter than rest of the skin for some reason.
The white nearly showed through some of them so. I had to pull out the eye shadow.
(And I'm sorry, I took this pictures when I didn't have a proper camera, and I refuse to do the make-up again JUST to take two pictures)

Eyes are the darkest blue from the palette and scales are the blue from the middle.

The lighting is a bit bad in that picture, but it shows the contrast between skin, scales and the eye shadow the best so I'm not complaining :D

Now I will run away again to spend my time on something redundant.
Stay human and blog ya later~!

So it's my birthday today :3

I threw a party on Friday, because it seemed to be the best day.
Theme was, of course, Superheroes vs. Supervillains, and I dressed up as Mystique from X-Men (no, I wasn't naked thank you very much).

I shamelessly used this tutorial for the make-up, and threw my new black over-knee boots, blue tights, black shorts, and a black jumper on.

Like this. Ignore the sword and the leg x)

My face before the blue paint :D

I started the make-up a bit too late, and ended up rushing it. In the end I didn't even need to hurry, so I could've used more time on it x)

Monica (as Thor!) and I. Photo courtesy of Donston Powell.

Thor's helmet is, btw, mine x)
I got so many looks and compliments at Tramps :D I'm not blaming the looks at all to be honest. I mean I was blue.

My favourites were the people who I heard going "Oh look, Avatar." or "Is that Avatar?"
People, do civilise yourselves xD

I got some amazing presents, like:


  • The Walking Dead vol. 1 Days Gone Bye (from flatties~)
  • The Walking Dead vol. 2. Miles Behind Us (also from flatties~)
  • Superheroes vs. Supervillains A-Z (from Whitty)
  • Turkinpippureita aka Tyrkisk Peber (from Tom)
  • The original The Girl- movies (from myself xD)

I also got some chocolate from Jesus and stuff like that but I ate it already x)
I almost bought myself the first season of Hawaii Five-0, but it was a bit too expensive so I left it at hmv :I

We made a cake to fit the theme~

What else... I think that's about it to be honest.

Stay human and see you!
