Random collection of nerdy looks


Most (?) of you have probably seen these looks already on my Facebook page, but I'm gonna be a bad person now and share these looks here in my blog, too. :P
Let's start with the Mass Effect inspired:




I used Sugarpill Velocity, Bulletproof, Flamepoint and Tako (and hint of Buttercupcake I guess) and Lime Crime Uniliners Quill & Lunar Sea.

Next was another gamer look, but of a "bit" older game, Pacman!

...wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka-wakka..

 Lime Crime Lotus Noir and Lime Crime liners: Lazuli, Citreuse, Blue Milk,Orchidaceous and 6th Element.

 Then off to the movies!

The Coolest Monster, Alien:


Black & neon-yellow glitter, black shadow, white liner, yellow liner :D

Then I was asked to do a batman look, so I went to Adam West's batman:

120 color palette & gold glitter.

Then I went all Nolan and a did more serious re-make of batman:

Sugarpill Bulletproof, Tako & Lumi, Lime Crime Lunar Sea liner and various Eye Kandy Cosmetics glitters

And to have some fun I did a Stitch look!
Done with Sugarpill Velocity, 2am & Mochi and black & white liner


Is there any character you'd like me to do? Let me know in comments and I might get inspired to do your suggestion! :D

Avengers: Hulk









1. Start with primer
2. Apply green to whole lid (Manly 120 palette , #1 in pic)
3. Apply black shadow (Manly 120 palette , #3 in pic), blend upwards.)
4. Blend lighter green shadow with the black (Manly 120 palette , #2 in pic)
5. Use dirty colored green (MakeupGeek Dirty Martini) to blend the light green, and to bring more depth to the look. 
6. Use pale green to make the blending  smooth (MakeupGeek Fuji)
7.Apply a hint of white (Manly 120 palette , #4 in pic) under to brow 
8. Line your eye with purple liner (BeautyUK Purple Haze liquid liner), also line your lower lashline with the same purple. Apply it un-evenly, like Hulk's shredded pants.
9. Use purple gel liner or pencil to line your waterline with purple (MAC Industrial Purple)
10. And finally apply false lashes (Sugarpill Angel baby false lashes)

Trivia:

Like with the Thor look, Hulk also had a "trial phase".
I thought the first version was too bright and not "masculine enough".

Avengers: Thor









1. As always, start with primer.
2. Apply red eyeshadow to your lid (Manly 120 palette, #1 in pic) I wanted a bit more drama, so I also added Stargazer eye dust #45 over the red shadow
3. Apply black to crease, blend upwards ( Manly 120 palette , #5 in pic)
4. Start blending the black with blue ( Manly 120 palette , #2 in pic)
5.Blend the blue with silver eyeshadow ( Manly 120 palette , #3 in pic)
6. Apply a small amount of white ( Manly 120 palette , #4 in pic) to highlight. I also added a hint of Sugarpill Lumi chromalust over the white shadow.
7.  If you want the netting pattern, take a small piece of tulle netting, apply firmly over the silver shadow, and gently pat some black trough it, make sure you don't  move the netting while applying shadow.
8. Attach the "metal studs" (I found mine from crafting store) with drops of lash glue
9. Line your eye with black gel/ liquid/ pencil liner, and you water line with bright blue liner (MSCHIC Electric Blue Sea eyestain, no longer available).
10. Apply mascara, and false lashes (Sugarpill Baby dewdrop false lashes & Spark false lashes  )

Trivia of this look:
This was one of the trickiest looks, I actually made three different  looks before I was happy with the result!
Originally my idea was to add in some gold (in honor of the old comic version), but I soon realized that mixing gold and silver just won't work. 
I also wanted the red to be in "cape -shape", but that didn't work either.
The second version was a bit better, and it was really close that I didn't publish it, but in the last minute I backed off.  I wanted to stand behind these looks 100%, and since I wasn't quite sure about the look, I did the final version the next day, and instantly knew that was IT

I bet the Thor look wouldn't be so awesome if it had looked something like this:

Perfect example how nobody's perfect ;)

Tutorial: Purple and bright green


I finally made something I can show :D
I've been struggling with my makeup lately, everything looks too bright or dark or slutty or messy, so I've been using a lot of just mascara.
But here's something bright finally, enjoy!

Look is done using Manly 120 palette:


First of all, use primer, and then apply white base to whole lid:

Then use a flat brush to apply the deepest green to outer corner:

Then apply the bright green to the middle of the lid:

Then the lightest green to inner corner:

Use a crease brush to apply black to crease:

Then apply purple(s) above the black:

Then use light color to blens the edges and highlight:

Add some black to crease with blending brush, so the edges aren't too hard:

Then extend the purple to the lower lashline:

Apply black liner to waterline:

..and finally to upper lashline too, and add mascara:

Add false lashes (mine are Elise #201), and the look is done:

Friendship is magic!

I know I'm not alone here when I say My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is awesome show!

I don't know why I decided to start doing makeups inspired by the ponies, but hey, here are the first ones:


Pinkie Pie:


Pinkie Pie is PINK! So is the makeup.
I used Manly 120 palette pinks and MUFE starpowder #951, and some NYX Hot Pink Candy Glitter Liner.
Balloons are done with MUFE flash colors.


Rainbow Dash:

Rainbow Dash is awesome! And has a rainbow, so I did rainbow to this look.
I used MUFE flash colors to do the rainbows base, then Manly 120 palette colors and Sugarpill colors to make it stronger. There's also MAC reflects transparent teal.


Rarity:


 Rarity is the beauty queen, always ready to do a makeover for others.
I  wanted my Rarity makeup to be as sweet and beautiful and sexy as it could be, and there also had to be rhinestones.
I used Sugarpill Poison Plum, Tako and Paperdoll, And Illamasqua Pure Pigment Breathe and Cream Pigment Dab.


And now that I mentioned Illamasqua, here's a sneak peek of what I got today:

Now I just need to do Applejack, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Celestia.... There are so many :D
