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!

This is my take on Alice in Wonderland’s Queen of Hearts! I bought these heart jewels and finally got an idea for them! I used Sugarpill, Lit Cosmetics, Naked Cosmetics and Lime Crime to create this.

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.
