Spiritomb in Lace Lingerie to support anti-LGBT bullying day

This is the look I did this morning for anti-LGBT bullying day, though ALL types of bullying are horrible. I wanted to do something nice but I didn't have much time since I have an exam tonight, so I didn't try anything new. This look gave me SO much trouble, no idea why either, I had to redo the entire thing after failing miserably the first time. I'm still not entirely happy with the look but it's fine for a day.

I also want to say how much I LOVE Meow's Lace Lingerie eyeshadow from the Guilty Pleasures line, it is THE perfect purple. I love royal colours and this is the best royal purple I have found (still looking for blue!). I wore it the other day with Devil's Bonfire and I got a bunch of compliments on it! Really really wish I had gotten a pic since it was my best look yet!

Gah my hair looks so frizzy!


What I used:
UDPP all over lid and up to eyebrow
Pixie Epoxy all over lid
Meow Cosmetics Lace Lingerie on lid
Shiro Cosmetics Gengar in crease
Shiro Cosmetics Spiritomb as highlight
Hard Candy black cream liner
24/7 liner in Zero on waterline and lower lashline
Yves Rocher mascara

Lips: Fyrinnae lip lustre in Romantique

Shiro Cosmetics review + swatches

I believe I first heard of Shiro cosmetics from Phyrra's blog, but I've seen it on so many other blogs I'm not 100% sure anymore! When I saw shadows named after Pokemon I HAD to have some I was such a huge Pokemon fan when it first came out, and I still play the game on my DS (can't wait for Pokemon Black & White!).

Shipping was quick and everything came well packaged and the samples came in a cute little red bag. I received 2 free samples and love both of them, Squirtle & Mewtwo. The owner has an etsy shop, and her own website. I also gotta say I LOVE the smaller but still wide baggies, they are much easier to use (even though I usually eventually put all my samples in little jars) most companies use tall baggies and I find it really difficult to get at the shadow all the way at the bottom of the bag.

I picked up Meowth and SS Anne since Phyrra seemed to love them so much and I am not disappointed, for neutral shades they are very lovely, especially SS Anne!

She is also releasing some Zelda inspired eyeshadows that I CANNOT wait to get my hands on, but since it's so close to my birthday and Christmas I have been put on a no buy :P My SO loves Zelda and really liked this collections so I may be getting some for Christmas. And if not I am going to get myself some after the holidays :D

Pyromantic EOTD

This is a look I did a little while back. I LOVE Pyromantic it's such a gorgeous colour! I was also surprised at how well that orange liner stayed on my waterline usually NOTHING stays there not even Urban Decay 24/7 liners. I had to light it with a lighter old school style for it to be soft enough to use :P

This is a much lighter look than I usually do but I really liked it :)



Sorry about the still wet hair :P

What I used:

UDPP
Pixie Epoxy on lid
Fyrinae Pyromantic Erotica
Meow Cosmetics Clara H. as highlighter
Some old orange crayon on waterline and lower lashline
Hard Candy brown cream liner
Nyx Doll eyes lengthening mascara

Lips: Evil Shades Ardour

I just made a few purchases of bath/shower stuffs so look back in a little while for some pictures and maybe reviews :)

My absolute favorites here would have to be Dark Fantasy, Pyromantic Erotica, Snow White, and Moon Child. I plan on getting all of these in full size.

Dark Fantasy just looks SO good on me it's a gorgeous colour that changes from dark green to a brownish orange in different lighting.

You can see my previous post to see me wearing Snow White and Moon Child, they look so gorgeous and gothy together. Moon child is such a beautiful highlighter I'm surprised not more people use it. It was yet another free sample that I would have never ordered for myself but actually fell in love with, the Fyrinnae guys really know what samples to pick and send!
