Cinderella Makeup!
I’ve been putting this one off for too long! I was really nervous about doing the carriage. Those swirly wheels… oh my god! I must have done them at least half a dozen times! But I finally did it! Yay! So we’ve got the Fairy Godmother turning the pumpkin into the carriage and on the other side is the castle. I had to draw out that castle a million times trying to get it right! Hopefully it’s recognizable.
Got any suggestions? Let me know in the comments!

If you’ve seen my last post… you should have been expecting this! Here’s my look for Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony. I recently bought this wig (which is amazing!) at Comicon and HAD to do this look. Used Lime Crime, Sugarpill Cosmetics, and BH Cosmetics.

As requested, I’ve designed a look inspired by BOTH Cheshire cats. I have the traditional pink and purple and underneath I have the blue. There are stripes in there, but you cant see them because of my lashes. Boo! I wanted to incorporate the smile into the look. Originally I was going to do just white, but I found the yellow stood out WAY more! I’ve done two versions of this look. One without the funky details and one with. Those teeth were a PAIN! The liquid eyeliner kept catching all of the lashes and… buh. Took way too long! haha! WHICH DO YOU PREFERRRR? I couldn’t decide which I liked better!

I went to go see Warm Bodies the day it came out. I loved it! Thought I’d do a Warm Bodies inspired makeup look. This can also be used for a Valentines look.

This is more of a softer look than what I normally do. I know most of you guys follow me for my eye scenes, but I get carried away with makeup looks! Haha! Even if they’re not as popular, I still like to play around. I’ll be doing another scene very soon, but I’d like to hear what everyone would like me to do next! Throw some suggestions at me!
