Ok ladies.. I'm posting this now since I'm on the west coast and I figured you all on the east coast didn't want to wait for me to drag my sorry but out of bed to post this on time for Monday ! So, I've been racking my brain for a good challenge for my first one.. and I didn't really want to steal the thunder for whoever gets to post for Halloween week. So, I decided to stick with something specific: Dark Fairies. Go bold! Go dark! Go fantasy! Here are some pics to spark your imagination...





Fairy tears perhaps?








Have fun ladies! Hope to see some spectacular pictures!

How fun!! I hope to attempt a rendition of that third pic from the bottom.

Ooooh, another one I need to try and do, although I still haven't done last week's yet!

Oh, I think I have an idea! But I can't do it until tomorrow or Wednesday.

<3

I can't wait to try this one and see what everyone else comes up with!

Well, this made me late for work, but I fell in love with the pic posted above (3rd from the bottom). Don't think I look anything like the lovely model, but it was fun.

Angel Wing from crease to brow, inner corners & inner lower lash
Azure on inner 3rd of lash, inner lower lash
Spaceoddity outer 2/3rd of lid and outer lower lashline
Swank in crease
Shadow Witch outer vee
Ebony outer corner & lower lashline
UD pencil in Zero on lower waterline
Rosewood rouge and Angel perle on cheeks (doesn't show the sparkle in photos)
Pink/gold gloss (Archetpye Recycled Virgin) and Astonish on lips

Photos taken outside in natural light, no flash:




This photo is awful but it's the only full face that I took.


Thanks for looking - can't wait to see what everyone else does.

so sexyy
love the pic of the close up of your eye (open)
the strong dark colors look beautiful on you

Already commented on how much I like your look, Katrina, but I too adore that third pic from the bottom! That full face pic is just fine, don't know what you are talking about!

I'll try and attempt that look this weekend. Maybe I'll even change my eyecolor .

Well, it wasn't my intention for you to be late to work... but great commitment! Love the look!

haha, thank ladies. My boss is away this week, so being 8 minutes late wasn't too bad.

The blue is gorgeous with your eyes.

I loved this one! We should do this one like... EVERY MONTH. lol


Primer and Sylph all over lid.
Blackplanet over the Sylph... THEN bluespark over the blackplanet... and then lookingforakiss on the brow bone area. Under my eye, I have just regular black eyeliner on the waterline... then I sort of mixed bluespark and lookingforakiss under there. Rimmel mascara.

Cheeks I used candy-o.
Lips... some lipgloss by Revlon.



(last one has flash)









The outfit (MAYBE it will inspire more people to be faeries for Halloween) Seriously, I wanted a skirt like this LAST Halloween (to be a faerie)... and couldn't find one. THEN in February or May or something... I found this one. I love it.

Oh, on another note... I didn't wipe off any excess really. I just took a tissue and rubbed it in, which is shown in the pictures of the side of my face.

<3

Nix, that first picture is so pretty. I like the way your color looks like it keeps changing from purple to more of a pinkish purple, and then I see some blue.

Love it! Love it! Love it!

Just have to comment again on the awesomeness of this look, Nix!

I might do another look for this one... tomorrow. Softer though.

<3

Bump.

Ok... I guess I can't let the week go by without doing my own challenge.. so here's my rendition. I used a combination of Ice, Ebony, Gridlock, Adrenochrome, black eye pencil and liquid liner. Basically I did Ice over the entire lid and lined the lids with the pencil. Then I lined the swirls with the pencil. I smudged Ebony between the curls to kinda tie them all together. Added Gridlock from crease to brow (heavier @ brow line) and under my right eye. Outlined the swirls with the liquid liner to define them better and added a bit of Adrenochrome (foiled) at the tips of each swirl. Some of the pics may look like there's no Adrenochrome... because there isn't. I took two sets of pics in case I totally messed it up or did too much. Hope you like!












After I did this, I removed the swirls and matched up the two eye liner lines and went out to a bar for dinner... Had a blast. Should have taken pics...

WOW Dru -that is gorgeous!! You must have super steady hands.

I really love how perfect the eye without the swirls came out.

Thanks ! I try to anyway... I'm an artist and a crafter that does a lot of stuff that's highly based on detail.. so I've had to learn.
