Valentine's Day Challenge | Romantic Lace

I got a FB msg from a lovely Theodora from Theodorable beauty blog if I want to participate in a nailart and makeup challenge she came up with Kaki from Obsessed with glitter for Valentine's day. Few days before that I was just thinking of what kind of makeup challenge I should come up with next, so this challenge popped at the right place in a right time :) Rules are simple: every two or three days there is a theme and you can do makeup or nailart or both! If you know me, I am doing makeup :) So, let this Valentine's day challenge begin ...

I tried to imitate lace underneath my right eye, which I had really hard time drawing so it came out looking like not-lace-at-all, but let's just say I'm warming up for the challenge ;) And ignore my messy hair, I obviously didn't brush them that day ;)

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!
