Tim Burton series (collaboration with Petite Sal) | Romantic goth

My little self and even more little Petite Sal decided to do a collaboration makeup series, Tim Burton inspired. We came up with 4 themes, expect one every Friday for the rest of the month. Today we start with just inspired by Tim Burton in general - romantic goth. His characters are kinda scary, goth looking, big eyed, pale skinned, but they are also (hopeless) romantics, lovable and harmless. I'm a big Tim Burton fan, not just because you can see Johnny Depp in most of his movies! ;)

Anyways, now to the look. I kept it matte, I haven't seen a goth with shimmer and dewy finish yet, but you never know ^^. I would call this semi-wearable, still toned down, but eyes are dolled up and I messed up my hair, Edward Scissorhands style (one of my favourite movies ;)).

Make sure you check out Petite Sal's blog for the look and stay for a while, her blog is awesome!

Weekly makeup tag: Black & pink

Sooo, this week's Wednesday is sunny and I'm at home organizing, cleaning and writing posts. *sigh* But I'm home alone and that's perfect time for me to clean ... when no one bothers me. I like to do it in peace in quiet. What about you?

And you know what Wednesdays are for - weekly tags! This week's theme was "Black & Pink". And pink is the only colour I don't like wearing on my eyelids. So I did more black and less pink, and this is what I came up with ...

Weekly makeup tag: Goth

Yay, it's Wednesday! :)

This week's theme was goth. I've never done goth makeup before, that's why I love these tags so much, they challenge me and give me chance to try something new :).

I paled my pale skin even more, and combined black with red. I had to photograph the pretty look before I "destroyed it". Tell me which one do you prefore more ;)
And I think goth suits me pretty well! What do you think? :)
