Forgotten makeup looks

I've gone through pictures on my memory card and found some makeup looks I never published before, so I decided to publish them in one post. Because they're old(er), I can't remember which products I used for each look, but if you're curious, you can pop a question in comment section and I'll try to find a product(s) in my stash that I (probably) used.

Complementary color pair: Blue eyeliner and orange lips

 

Purple madness

Modern Mod

Have a nice day <3

Drag queens do it better [makeup practice]

Do you ever feel like you need to practice? Practice anything? Well, I was like that last week, I wanted to practice applying makeup. I didn't want to do just one eye or do it kinda half way. No, I did it all. Like I once said: "I don't do half looks." :)

I don't have a weekly tag makeup for you today, since I just "recycled" an old one. But you can still check out what other girls created: here.
Weekly makeup tag is celebrating one year, guys! Can you imagine? I am so thankful for all the lovely ladies I've met and people I've shared my creativity with. Thank you :)

Now, today's look. You all know I love drag queens, so that's what I did. Full on drag face. Maybe contouring is kinda mellowed down, but whole look is dramatic. Can't wait for the day I'll have enough courage to go out like that. :D

So, here it is ...

 

 

Ok, I don't remember what exactly I used, but you can ask me and I'll try to figure out. Did this look last week and didn't write down the products. Oops :) And yeah, there's a little bit of mascara on my falsies. Oops no.2 :)

 

Hope you have a lovely Wednesday <3

Weekly makeup tag: Barbie

Well, I never wear pink eye makeup. If you know me by know, I prefer dark smokey, natural or winged liner look. To channel my inner Barbie I even had to put my blonde wig on, that's why I have it, right? ;)

I literally took my Barbie doll for inspiration. I still have them, don't judge ;). She has pretty lavender pink makeup, but I ended up with bright pink and purple-blue makeup (close enough), pink blush and pink lips. I tried to cover all my skin imperfections, then I set my foundation with loose powder and then I added shine back to my face, because Barbies are plastic and plastic shines a little, it's not matte, so I used highlighter on (almost) my whole face.

We don't wanna read your rambling, show us the look ... I hear you ;)

FOTD | Maleficent

I know I know ... "Deja, where is weekly makeup tag?" Yes, I'm still a participant, but this week we had to send our pictures earlier, because momma of Weekly tags, Aqeela, went on holiday (lucky gurl!) and I didn't have time to do new makeup look. So, I decided to send my old (but gold!) makeup look I did for The Penguin Challenge last year. I mean you can tell it's not from now, my hair looks completely different :)

Check out Aqeela's blog here and show other girlies some love! We work hard, mmm-kay?

Mariah Carey OPI Liquid sand nail lacquer REVIEW & SWATCHES

* This post is written in English and Slovene. / Objava je napisana v angleščini in slovenščini.


I received box of 4 mini OPI polishes along with Sleek i-Divine Snapshots palette (review here) from Slovenian site Zapikonai.si. I hadn't known much about these polishes before I got them, because I usually don't check out new collections (how lame that sounds, huh? ^^). They are definitely something different, you don't see matte glittery polish everyday, do you? Box came with 4 shades, all named by Mariah Carey songs: Get Your Number, Can't Let Go, The Impossible and Stay the Night.
Slovenska spletna trgovina Zapikonai.si mi je tole škatlico štirih mini lakov za nohte poslala poleg Sleek i-divine Snapshots paletke (ocena tu). Preden sem jih prejela, o njih nisem vedela kaj dosti, ker običajno ne spremljam, kdaj pridejo nove kolekcije (slaba beauty bloggerka! ;)). Tile laki so vsekakor nekaj posebnega, ne vidiš vsak dan mat glitter lakov. V škatli so štirje laki poimenovani po pesmih Mariah Carrey: Get Your Number, Cant' Let Go, The Impossible in Stay the Night.

What does is say on the box? Dries to a textured matte finish infused with reflective glints of light. Apply base coat and two coats of color. Do not use top coat.
Kaj pravijo "navodila" na škatli? Lak se posuši v mat finiš in odseva bleščice. Nanesite podlak in dve plasti barvnega laka. Ne uporabljajte nadlaka.

They are kinda sheer, so I you'll need 3 thinner coats or 2 thicker coats to achieve complete opacity. Because you don't apply top coat, drying time takes quite awhile and you know I'm impatient with that! I also tried applying clear top coat over it and it looks quite different, not so much glittery anymore, I prefer it sandy looking!
Laki so kar prosojni, jaz sem uporabila ali 3 tanjše plasti ali 2 debelejši plasti za popolno prekrivnost. Ker nadlak zaradi mat finiša ni priporočljiv, je tudi čas sušenja daljši, jaz pa sem precej nepotrpežljiva s sušenjem in zna biti naporno. Ravno tako sem poskusila nanesti čez prozoren nadlak, barva mi je izgledala precej drugače, tudi bleščice so bile manj opazne. Mi je peskast izgled bolj všeč.

 

Each polish contains 3.75 ml - 1.8 fl. oz. of the product. Brush is slightly smaller from regular OPI brush (15 ml), but it's still easy to work with, I had no problem with application. The only downside with packaging is that bottles don't have names on them. Names are written only on the box itself, so it's best to store them in it, unless you don't care about the names :)
Vsaka steklenička ima 3,75 ml vsebine. Čopič je manjši od navadnih OPI lakov (15 ml), vendar sem ga nanesla brez težav. Edina stvar, ki me je pri embalaži zmotila je, da posamezna steklenička nima imena, zato je najboljše, da se jih shranjuje v škatli, s katero so prišli, ker vsebuje imena.

Now, let's swatch and describe each polish individually. First sentence is description on the box.
Sedaj pa k swatchom in opisom vsake posamezne barve.

Get Your Number

I applied blue polish on my middle finger just to see if there's any difference. You can see it's slightly more opaque.

Wearing this matte blue with sparkles is a great call.
I think this one is my favourite, pretty blue (and I'm sucker for blue polishes!) with silver glitter (different sizes of glitter) that sparkles in different colours. Looks like a rainbow!
Get Your Number
Mislim, da je ta barva moja najljubša od vseh štirih, čudovita modra (modra je le moja najljubša barva!) s srebrnimi bleščicami različnih velikosti in se tudi svetijo v različnih barvah. Izgleda kot mavrica!

Can't Let Go

I applied purple polish on my middle finger, you can see slight difference.

Hold on to this matte purple with dazzling sparkle.
I'm not a big fan of purple polishes, I don't like how they look on my nails, but this one is still dark enough for my likings (you make no sense, Deja). Glitter is again in different sizes and in purple colour.
Can't Let Go
Nisem največji fan vijoličnih lakov, ker se mi zdi, da na meni zgledajo čudno, vendar je ta še vedno dovolj temna, da mi je všeč (ima ta stavek smisel?:P). Bleščice so v različnih velikostih in vijolične barve.

The Impossible

Applied red polish on middle finger, can't really tell the difference.

This matte fuchsia with star confetti will never give up.
Am I colour blind, but this one looks more red to me? Anyways, it's gorgeous red with glitter in different sizes. Another colour I'm sucker for!
The Impossible
Sem jaz barvno slepa ali je ta lak bolj rdeč kot fuksija? (na škatli piše fuksija). Kakorkoli, je čudovita rdeča z rdečimi bleščicami različnih velikosti. Še ena barva, ki jo obožujem!

Stay the Night

Applied black polish in middle finger, difference is almost unnoticable.

Make it last in this matte black with red glints.
Love this one! It's black with red glitter (all same sizes).
Stay the Night
Tale mi je zelo všeč! Črn z rdečimi bleščicami (enake velikosi).


I can't decide if I love them or not. I always rub my fingers over my nails because I'm not used to rough surface with polishes.  
Še vedno se odločam, ali so mi vsesplošno všeč ali ne. Vedno se s prsti dotikam nohtov, ker nisem navajena grobe površine na nohtih.

Do you like this trend? Have you tried Mariah Carey polishes? How do you like them and which colour is your favourite? 
Vam je všeč trend peskastih nohtov? Ste že preizkusile Mariah Carey lake? Kako so vam všeč in katera je vaša najljubša barva?

Svoje lahko kupite na Zapikonai.si.

The penguin challenge look 3: purple everywhere

It's time for the last look for the penguin challenge. I had so much fun creating all three looks, and looking at other masterpieces :). I love makeup so much, that's why I decided to do more makeup blog post, because it's the funnest thing to do! :)

The third look has to be white and colour. My first thought was white and orange (who knows why ...), but instead I decided to go with purple-white look, for I remembered I had some purple false eyelashes! Because I didn't want to incorporate black mascara, unfortunately I don't have purple mascara :)

So here is the look I created:

Face:
- Bourjois foundation Bio detox organic
- E.l.f. Under eye concealer and highlighter
- E.l.f. High Definition Powder
- E.l.f. Brush (it has no name on it, it's kinda pinky-peachy-purple-y shimmery shade :D)

Eyes:
- Artdeco eyeshadow base
- NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil 604 Milk
- BH cosmetics 88 Color palette Tropical shimmer eyeshadow (it has only two purple shadows, used them both)
- Coastal Scents 88 Color Eye Shadow Palette (used the darkest purple)
- Sleek i-Divine palette in Chaos (matte white)
- BeautyUK eyeshadow collection in Twilight (shimmery white)
- Kiko Mixing solution 
- Baci false eyelashes No. 545 (purple lashes, I bought them in erotic shop :P)
- Duo eyelash adhesive Clear-white

Lips:
- Artdeco High Performance Lipstick in shade 498
- Artdeco Soft Lip Liner waterproof 91
- Revlon Lipbutter Gumdrop

Firstly, I applied foundation, concealer, set everything with powder and primed my eyes. Applied NYX Jumbo pencil on my lids, blended it with my fingers. Started applying shimmery purple on outer corner of my eyes, in my crease and in the inner corner, leaving the center of my lids uncovered. Applied another darker purple-y shade over what I just did and white matte eyeshadow in the center. With wet brush (mixing solution) I applied white shimmery shade in the center. I deepened the outer corner with darker shade of purple and blended it with white brow highlight colour. Did the same thing on my lower lashline. Lined my eyes with wet brush and dark purple eyeshadow. Applied white jumbo pencil in my waterline. I left my eyebrows au natural.

I outlined and filled in the corners of my lips with purple lip pencil and applied darker lipstick. In the center I applied light purple shade and dabbed some shimmery white eyeshadow on top.

You can make this look easily more wearable with skipping the purple eyelashes, you can apply black false lashes or just black mascara. And you can switch for natural lipstick shade.

I think I could have done so much better with this look, but I don't really have time to recreate it. Maybe some other time :)

Have a lovely day!
