Wonder Woman

It's finally come in the mail!

I bought the MAC Defiance Palette that's in their new Wonder Woman line.  I couldn't go and try on the colors, so this whole buying makeup online thing is quite new to me.  But once I saw all the beautiful colors online, I couldn't resist.  

First of all, the box is a mini piece of comic book artwork.  Well, maybe that's just because I love comic book art.

Colors: Defiance; Paradise Island; Star Studded; Real Drama.

Real Drama looks like my favorite so far.  I'll post a makeup look with the new colors soon.

1920's with a twist

 

I thought I would start the New Year off with a brand new make up shoot.  I've decided to make Wigs my new favorite accessory.  Why not?  They're fun and aren't permanent.  If I want black hair for a few hours, I can certainly have it.

 

I did make up myself using a few of my favorite colors from the Tokidoki Robbery Palette.  I used Bare Minerals on the rest of my face. Lipstick is MAC. 

Snake Ring: BCBG

Studded Ring: Forever 21

The last ring is from a local thrift store. 

Grace

 Ah, Grace.  How well you pull off pink eyeshadow since it matches with the tips of your hair.

This is my friend, Grace, who lives in the school's art building just like I do.  She asked me to do her make up for an art show opening that she was in. 
To start, I filled in her eyebrows and primed her eyes and lips.  I cannot stress how important eyebrows are to any face.  Just by filling them in, even if it's only a slight amount, that extra definition given to the arch can change one's face completely.  For the better, of course.
Since she was wearing a mix of ivory, black, pink, and a hint of purple I decided to take her eye makeup in that direction.  The color fans from pink, purple, ivory, and finally to green.

Her lips were kept nice and simple with just a sheer nude gloss that matched her skin tone.  Over top, I put some gloss that had that extra touch of glitter that pulled the whole look together.

All eyeshadows used are by MAC.
Lipstick by Jordana.
Lipgloss by Sephora.
