Funny Face Beauty's Dare to Wear for Japan!

Oh god. 

It's almost been a month since I've post ANYTHING. And I actually don't have any excuses. I've just been lazy, bored, uninspired.. but mainly lazy, I'll admit that!

So, now I'm fully back. I have hauls to post, review to write and make up to put on. Let's start with this :

A couple weeks ago, as you all know, Japan got hit by an earthquake and a tsunami. As a teenager, it was hard to donate money to help, but Alicia (FunnyFace Beauty) had this really awesome idea of doing one of her Dare to Wear challenge for charity again! For each looks done by her followers on her blog, her family will donate 10$ to the Red Cross to help Japan.
Simply awesome, isn't it?

Here's what I came up with. I got inspired by a street fashion look called Yamamba, or Ganguro somtimes.. I'm not an expert, but there's a full historical aspect of one being the oldest trend that led to the other, more dramatic and all.. They're known for:
-Overwelming fake tan
-A lot of white around the eyes and on the cheek bones
-Using a lot of black eyeliner, some girls as also been seen using sharpies and paint pens
-Having over colored hair, with things stuck in it such as flowers, bow, stuffed animals, etc
-Having 'light clothes' on ...
and the list could go on...

So,  here's the look! :)






 
Look at the colour difference between my finger and my face on the last picture... OH man xD

Anyway. It was a really fun look to do! I really enjoyed it :) Plus, it was for a good cause... That makes it a good reason to draw some twiggies on! Right? :)

I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading

FunnyFace Beauty's Dare to Wear Challenge IV

Hello!

Yes! Your eyes are not tricking you! It's a REAL POST! :)

Yesterday night, I finally did the recent Dare to Wear Challenge from Alicia ( aka FunnyFace Beauty ). I went for a non-traditionnal colors tribal inspired make up... I think that it looks like a color blind samurai, but it's okai! It was still fun to do :)

Here's what I came up with :
(Mommy told me that this design makes my eyes look really close... I have to agree!)
So yes... Color blind Samurai! Ahah :) The colors I used were
-Make Up Forever no. 92 ( Bad, bad idea.. Where the purple was, well today it's stained in pink! At least I don't have to go to school! )
-Urban Decay Absolem from the Alice in Wonderland palette ( it's regularly call Homegrown ) for the green
-The Yellow is in Costal Scents 88 color palette ( 2 across, 2 down )
-The white is NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow pencil in Milk
 
I truely invite you to do a look for this challenge! Everylook you do help to raise money for charity! All details here.

That is basically all for today girls and guys :) I'll have a new post soon after this one since pictures are already taken! ( hint hint : It's blue, and it's part of a series, about skittles and/or rainbow... Remember? :D )

Have a wonderfull thanksgiving for those of you who celebrate it today, and I am really thankfull for all of my readers, ( and commenters! :O see the subliminal message :)? ).

Thank you for everything,
Mariie~~

FunnyFace Beauty's Dare to Wear Challenge III

Oh my god.

I'm so late on this one!! But better late than never :) Here's my ''entry'' for lovely Alicia's challenge! Here's the look we were suppose to replicate :


To me, she's wearing a more neutral eye on top, ( look at the right eye, toward the inner corner, doesn't that look a bit like MAC Amber Light? ) it doesn't look like it because of the thick liner and those feathery lashes, with blue slapped fon the lower lash line. Here's my take on it :)

So yes!! I hope you enjoyed it! My next post will be about my top 4 mascaras, will you come back to see it? :)

Thanks for reading!!

FunnyFace Beauty's Dare to Wear Challenge II and FOTD

Okai.

I'm tired of being MIA , I miss blogging! School is boring. I hate my classes but I can't cancel everything, my parents don't want me to. I can't wait to finish college in 3 years and then go to beauty school. I know it's want I want to do.

Well, that's not the point!
I took Alicia's Dare to Wear Challenge again! Here's how my take looks :

I like this style of eyeliner, it's new to me, :)  here is the original look :
I don't look anything like this girl, but I think I did great :)

ALSO :)
Here's a quick face of the day :
I think that this is my new favorite smokey eye. I used
-Urban Decay Primer Potion
-MAC Soft Ochre
-MAC Rondelle Shadow( I used it wet ) on the lid
-MAC Knight Shadow in the crease 
-MAC Courtly Grey Shadow on the lower lash line
-MAC Maid of Honor Shadow as a Highlight
 (all the shadows above were limited edition but they're easy to duplicate )
-Buxom Lash Liner in Leatherette
-MARK Make it Big Mascara ( MY NEW FAAAAAVE <3 )
-Beauty Rush Paradise Lip Gloss


And I'm wearing Nudy Violet Circle Lenses :)

And again, thanks for reading to all of you girls,

I know, it is really not the same.. But it was really fun to do! I hope she'll do these more often, a challenge is good time to time :)

Thanks for reading beautiful people!
