Poison Ivy
So, as requested by Jennifer, I did the Poison Ivy look. It actually came out being more versatile than I thought. You could wear this for a fairy costume, or a jungle look, or even if you wanted to be some form of whimsical Eve. Anyway, I took spirit gum (You can find it at any costume store) and applied it to my skin. Then took some ordinary leaves (I cut some off my fake flowers) and pressed them where I applied the spirit gum. (You kind of have to work fast, spirit gum will dry relatively quick) After that, and this should have been my first step because trying to work around the leaves was a pain, but I applied a bright green around my entire eyes followed by a darker green in the crease. After that, I applied a hot pink to my brow bone and above the darker green. As for the lips, I put some clear lip gloss on, then lined my lips in dark green shadow, feathering it towards the middle. After that, I applied bright pink lipstick to finish it off. And there you have it! The look is complete! Not as time consuming as Batman, but still pretty fun to do.
What/Who should I do next? :)

Who's afraid of the big, bad bat?
Alright, lovelies. This is what I've been doing recently lol. I've been doing a series of makeup based off some things. Right now, it's Batman!
This mask was actually incredibly time consuming! I outlined the bat logo in white liner, then went over it with my black NYX felt tip liner. After that, I put the yellow over my entire lid, brow and under. For under, to get it semi even, I seriously just followed the bags under my eyes. Weird, I know, but it worked! After that, I colored in the rest of the mask using my black NYX jumbo pencil. Then patted that down with simple black eye shadow. I blended the black into the yellow and added eye liner. Then used a baby wipe (MUCH better and cheaper than makeup remover wipes) to crisp up the lines and....FINISHED! lol doesn't sound like a lot of steps, but trust me...It took so much time lol
Who would you guys like to see next from Batman?
*Robin
*Cat Woman
* The Joker
* The Riddler
* Poison Ivy
* Penguin
I've already done Harle Quinn, so I'll put that one up next when I can find the picture -____-....Until then!

Another wound
So here's another wound that I did, this time on myself. I did this super late at night because I couldn't sleep lol. Here's the finished product:
I basically did the same thing that I did with the other wound, but instead of putting one piece of tissue, I actually put 5 layers of tissue along my upper lip and 5 layers of tissue along my bottom lip. That way it would be easier to pull it away from the skin. I then used the same technique as last time. I just built up the bruising using ordinary eye shadow (A combination of red, black and purple) and then added Vaseline to red eye shadow to make it look bloodied. I continued the blood/bruising to my lips to make it look like my lip was splitting. One thing I would do if you want to make it look super gnarly, is draw in teeth. That was it makes it look like the side of your mouth is exposed and would make it a bit more accurate.
Hope you enjoyed!

It's about to get a little...Messy. ;)
So, this is more on the lines of the makeup I want to pursue. Not that I don't LOVE doing beauty and editorial makeup, but...I love the gore and the blood lol. So here's the finished product:
Now, I don't have the products pictured for this particular look because I did it before I was invited to do the blog. I just really want to start putting looks up because I feel that I've been neglecting such an awesome opportunity. Things have been way hectic right now, but I promise I'll start posting more! So, to start off this look, I simply took pieces of tissue (Or toilet paper) and attached it to my model's neck using flesh colored liquid latex (You can get liquid latex at any costume store). If you don't have liquid latex, you CAN use Elmer's School Glue, just be careful that the person you're applying this to has some moisturizer on and isn't allergic to anything in the glue.
After attaching the paper, I cut a hole in it to make it look like there was skin peeled away. From there, I used a variety of eye shadow (Mainly reds, purples, and blacks) to make the bruising and hide the edges of the latex and paper. To make it look bloody, I mixed together red lip gloss and Vaseline. You can also get fake blood, or make your own. My dad has a SUPER easy blood recipe which consists of clear dish soap and food coloring.
This look is seriously VERY easy, but VERY time consuming depending on how you want it to look. Don't rush this if you decide to try it. Take it slow. Pick a day that you have NOTHING going on, and just go for it. That's how I started. Have fun with it!

Smokey look
Hey lovlies! This is the second look I did. It's still somewhat natural, but quite dramatic and perfect for a night out!
First step was to apply Almay's "Eye Brightener". It's a concealer for under your eyes as well as a primer. Primers help your makeup to stay on longer, and there are plenty out there. From face primers to eyelash primers. If you don't want to spend a lot of money, the one I used today is about...I think I got it for 7 or 8 bucks. There's a really good one out there by Urban Decay, but it's around 18 bucks. So I applied this all over from lid to brow and a little under the eyes as well.
Next I went in with the Sally's Beauty Supply color "388121", It's a pretty natural color with a shimmer to it and a gold dual chrome. Really good for wanting to stay natural, but add a hint of shimmer. I applied that to the entire lid. After that, I used a combination of the two blacks from my 120 palette. Don't know who it's by, because my friend was selling them from her beauty school. Anyway, I applied those two top blacks to my crease, and blended them down into the lid color slightly, and up to create that smokey effect.
Now, I just got this ULTA brand mascara in "Show Stopper Lashes", and I absolutely love it. It's very light, but it still does the job. ULTA brands are amazing, and very inexpensive. They have everything from face primers to nail polish. The one thing I wouldn't recommend getting from them is their eye primer. If you have oily eyelids, like I sometimes do, it's too creamy, and your makeup will crease within hours. But if you're tight on cash, go for it and just add a bit of powder to set the primer.
Aaaand lastly, I used my trusty Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner. I love this stuff. It glides on nicely, and really lasts. I either use the brush it comes with, or I just grab a liner pencil and dip it in. Dipping a liner pencil into a gel liner really helps those who aren't familiar with brushes. It gives you more control in handling it.
