I Can Haz a FOTD!

Hi everyone,

Yay! I finally posted a makeup look up in herre! It's been a while, I know. Please bare with me. Not being able to do FOTDs is antagonizing for me, too. Last week, I was invited to a wedding reception and had to do makeup. What would look nice with my black and white dress? A smokey eyes look. I guess smokey eyes makeup is my forte and when in doubt, I use it.

My "I can haz a FOTD look"
It's smokey eyes with a Japanese influence. Look how huge my eyes are :]
 Wanna know how I did it? Jump!

First of all, it's not one of those "in your face" makeup looks with black eyeshadow. I used the same principle here but with different products. I sneaked in Sue Devitt Lonely Splendor and boy, did it work! Yes, I found it when I took things out of my luggage. I'm glad it is still here with me. This lavender-taupe eyeshadow makes a whole lot of a difference in this look.

The pictures were taken after the party and the walls in my room are green. Hence, the crappiest pictures I've ever had!

Open eye
Semi-close eye
What I used:

Eyes:

  • L'Oreal HiP Chrome Eyeliner in Black Shock as a base and to line my eyes
  • L'Oreal HiP Chrome Eyeliner in Silver Lightning to line my upper eyelids and lower waterline. Hence, the doll eyes effect.
  • Christian Siriano for VS eyeshadow in Gilded Fierce
  • Rimmel London Glam Eyes single eyeshadow in Night Jewel
  • Sue Devitt eyeshadow in Lonely Splendor
  • Matte white eyeshadow from Wet n Wild Vanity palette to highlight
  • Shu Uemura eyelash curler
  • Kiss Me Heroine Make mascara

Cheeks:

Lips:
  • Rimmel London Celeb lipstick
Note:
  • To make my eyes look bigger and more wide awake, I applied Silver Lightning to the upper lash line after applying eye shadows. Then, I applied black eyeliner from the outer corner to 2/3 of the lash line.
  • Silver Lightning to the waterline of the lower lash line equals anime/manga heroine eyes.
I hope you enjoy this FOTD. I'm sorry for the crappy pictures. I do wish to have GLAMCOR Classic Light Kit in my room. If you have any suggestions for taking better pictures with green walls, please let me know. I really appreciate it!
