Kill la Kill Series: Harime Nui

"All memories are lost the moment a girl changes her underwear.

Ah, Harime Nui. You were a delightfully bat-shit crazy character in Kill la Kill. Without giving any spoliers, I'll say to not let her cute appearance and demeanor fool you. She is insanely cute, and insanely...well, for a lack of a better term, insane. She was a very refreshing character and I enjoyed seeing her scenes because she has a hilarious personality! For this look, I wanted to do something kind of cute, but also a little edgy and fun (just like her!). And for the fun of it, I decided to add her signature purple eye patch ( it is in the shape of the Japanese katakana character for the sound "nu" and "i" combined, cleverly forming her name). It is so wearable (note: sarcasm)! I'm totally going to work like this xD

1. Start off as usual by applying a primer.

2. With a flat shader brush, apply a light pastel pink to the lid. Here I used the Lime Crime eyeshadow in 'Royal Flush'. 


3. With a small brush, apply a shimmery golden yellow on the inner corner. I used Lime Crime's 'Goldfish' eyeshadow.


5. With a pencil brush, apply a darker pink on the outer V and on the crease. I used Sugarpill's 'Dollipop' eyeshadow.

6. With a small crease brush, blend out the hot pink slightly using the same pastel pink you used on the lid.



7. Apply a pink eyeliner on the waterline. I used a hot pink liner by Maybelline (although it looks kind of red in the photos...but I promise it is pink!)


8. With a small brush, apply an intense purple on the lower lash line. I used Sugarpill's 'Poison Plum' eyeshadow.



9. With a clean fluffy crease brush, go over any areas that need to be blended a bit more.

10. Apply mascara.

11. Optionally, you can apply a pink mascara on the lower lashes. I used a Wet n Wild pink mascara...I think it was limited edition though :(
