Hello!

The other day I was invited to a sci fi party, and while I do love dressing up, I had no idea what to go as! So in the end, I settled for just going as a generic alien and it was actually kinda fun. I hope you enjoy :)

I started off with my eyebrows. I used Kiko Infinity Clics in 277 and Kiko Wet and Dry eyeshadow in 213.

Then I went on to my eyes. I used a shimmery pale green shade from the Technic Mega Sultry Eyeshadows palette all through my crease, and I also dragged it down the top sides of my nose.

Then I took a mid tone green from the W7 Neon Nights palette and blended it right up to my brow.

Then I took the lime green shade from the same palette and put it all across my lid, and blended it into the crease shade. (Not shown, I don't know why I didn't take a picture of that oh well)

I then took the same lime green and ran it along my lower lash line, but I felt that was too harsh so I blended it out.

As a blush, I used the Kiko Infinity Clics in 248. It actually worked quite well, it was just a tad more on the purple side than a regular blush.

As a highlight I used a dab of Horn of Magic from the Makeup Revolution Unicorns Unite lipstick collection, which created a very subtle green glow. Then I used my regular highlighter, the MUA Undress Your Skin in Iridescent Gold. I just used it waaay heavier than I normally do.

I decided that I wanted to have something more to my brows, so I went in with my Collection Glam Crystals in Le Freak. And it was surprisingly easy to remove as well!

I didn't use any eyeliner on the top of my eyes, just mascara and false lashes. This was the first time I used lashes without eyeliner, but I don't think I did too bad of a job, I just need more practice! I also lightly ran I Have A Green eyeliner from Esscence in my lower waterline.

I took my eyelash glue and used it to stick gems above my eyebrows. I used silver and green gems to keep in with the theme of this look. On my lips, I used a black eyeliner all over, and then Makeup Revolution Salvation Velvet Lip Laquer in Velvet Vamp. In the center of my lip, I used the pale green shade from the Technic palette and lightly dabbed it on.

I hope you enjoyed this look, it was super fun to do something this creative again!

Hello!

So I decided to go a bit crazy with this tutorial as I feel like I always do serious looks and I wanted to do something a bit more fun. I've been noticing recently that blue eye makeup is becoming a huge trend, and I wanted to try something with this colour. However, I don't feel as though masses of blue eyeshadow suits me that well, hence why I decided to go all out and create a Mermaid themed look. I hope you enjoy!

Firstly I went into my crease with my all time fave transition colour, Substitute For Love from the Zoeva Cocoa Blends palette.

Then I used the blue shade from the W7 Neon Nights palette, bringing it into my crease but also slightly lower down too.

Across my lid, I used Kiko's Infinity Shadow in 277, blending it with that W7 shade.

Then, the star of the show, Kiko's Wet & Dry Eyeshadow in 213. I (obviously) used it wet and packed it on across my lid.

I didn't want eyeliner for this look, so I skipped straight to the face makeup. I lined my waterline with a mix of the 277 and 213 shades.

And this is where it gets unwearable for everyday use. Well, you could wear it to Tesco but I'm sure you'll get a few odd looks.  I contoured with the 277 shade and also applied it to my brows. Then I took some blue glitter and put eyelash glue carefully on my inner corner (CAREFULLY). I applied the glitter over the glue and I quite liked the finished effect.

I then mixed some white glitter in with the blue to create a sort of brow highlight.

Finishing off with Makeup Revolution's Unicorns Unite lipstick in Horn of Magic.

I finished off with a wig and there we are.

A crazy-ass mermaid look.

I hope you enjoyed,
