World of Warcraft Series: Alexstrasza

"Life is my Aspect, Dark One, and I, like all mothers, know both the pain and wonders that entails!"

Alexstrasza, the Life-Binder and Dragonqueen, is an "immense dragon...colored a deep, rich red that seems to shimmer and dance before your eyes" (source). For this look, I wanted to use red, purple, and gold as the main colors.

The Legend of Zelda Series: Green Chuchu

Greetings from the Dark Side!

Ahh the Chuchu are one of the most annoying monsters from the Zelda games, IMO! They are not very strong, but they attack you and shock you randomly. But there is something quite cute about them. Maybe it's because they are super colorful or because they are smiling...I don't know. But I wanted to create something bright and crazy. The Chuchu that stands out to me is the green one, so that is the one I decided to use for my inspiration.

FOTD: Utopia

Greetings from the Dark Side!

Today, I will be showing you what the Makeup Geek loose pigment in Utopia (from my latest haul) looks like. This is one of the first times I have used this pigment, and I am still trying to find the best way to use it. In the today's look, I used a flat brush to apply it, which honestly is probably not the best application method. It does look a little bumpy, so I still need to find a better way to apply it! Anyway, hope you like it!

Haul: + First Impression: Makeup Geek Cosmetics

Greetings from the Dark Side!

Sorry for the mini hiatus. If you follow me on Facebook you might know that my dog Chewie was sadly run over by a car. Thankfully (and surprisingly because he was run over with both the front and back tires of the car), he did not receive too much damage aside from some bruises and a small fracture on his pelvic bone. I have been spending all my spare time making sure he is recovering and that he is not alone. He is still in a lot of pain, so he tends to cry/whimper a lot. It is really quite depressing. He is doing a little better though, and I finally feel at ease to take the time to blog. So onto less depressing news...

You might have also noticed that I have not posted many hauls. That is because I have not been buying much makeup recently; it is so great to be cutting down my spending! I did, however, order my first purchase from Makeup Geek Cosmetics. I have heard so much about Makeup Geek so I definitely had to try them out for myself  :) I only bought four things: three pan eyeshadows and one loose pigment.
