New Hair and Going Out Look

I've been broken out in hives and nasty peely face skin for the past several weeks, so I've just kind of bummed it for a while now! I thought it was time to try and look semi-decent for date night with the husband tonite though!


Because my eyes are so peely right now, I can only use cream based eyeshadows (and it still doesn't turn out great!) which sucks as I own all of 2 cream shades! But I used Beloved by Victoria's Secret which is actually pretty good! For the cheeks I used MUFE sculpting blush in 22. On the lips I used Illmasqua gloss in Indulge which is SUPER intense, so I toned it down with MAC Lipglass in Viva Glam Gaga 2.


The lovely leopard scarf was actually sent to me via Fraas. I am a HUGE fan of scarves and you can never go wrong with leopard print! You can get it for $40 at http://www.fraas.com/.

Theatre of the Nameless

The first time I saw an Illamasqua campaign, I instantly fell in love with them. They are crazy and over the top, but still manage to look amazing! This is one of the looks from their newest campaign Theatre of the Nameless, that inspired me the most:


 I wanted to do something that was loosely based on the picture, but not quite as crazy. (Disclaimer: This look is for fun; I would not wear it out!!!!)









For the face, I used:
-Smashbox Photo Finish Primer
-CoverGirl Foundation in Ivory 205
-Mary Kay Mineral Foundation in Ivory .5
-Kat Von D Tattoo Concealer
-Stila Blush in Art Deco under the cheekbones
-Too Faced Pink Cheeks as highlight

Eyes:
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin
-Clinique Cream Liner in True Black
-Sephora Lashes
-Tarte Gifted Mascara

Eyebrows:
-ELF Brow Gel
-Mally Eyeliner in black to draw brows

Lips:
-OCC Lip Tar in Pageant
-Mally Eyeliner in black to trace around lips

It's kind of a shame that as much as I LOVE Illamasqua campaigns, I have never actually used their products!!! But I plan on trying them out soon. Hope you enjoy the look!
