Purple and red fun

Make-up look today because I cut my nails off and it makes me sad to look at them. I will post pictures of the latest manicure in a day or two.
 In the meantime this is a purple and red look I did a while ago.

Apologies about the weird colour of the last one. It was too dark so I tried to fix it and I just made it weird then I couldn't work out how to make it better. I suck at operating photo programs. 

Anyway, as per usual I can't tell you what colours I used because I don't have the names. I can safely say I used Love + from sugarpill for the red. That is all.

(For the record it is REALLY hard to type with nails this short. Who would have thought that short nails made my typing abilities worse? I prefer not being able to feel the tips of my fingers.)

In your face, Valentines

I entered a competition on facebook to win some Sugarpill stuffs which I'm not about to win but I thought that I would post some pictures here anyway.

This isn't actually what I was originally going to do. What I had been thinking of doing was a red/pink/purple army print mask thing. I tried that twice before I gave up on that idea. The second time I was almost up to doing the mascara before I decided it looked horrid.

Then I thought of this. I did the whole outline in a white eyeliner first to make sure it looked okay and filled the whole thing in with it as well (I don't have a jumbo eye pencil yet - it's on it's way, though!). Then I went over the outline with black eyeliner and then set that with black eyeshadow, pulling the eyeshadow in as I went around so that the inner part faded out. Then half over the black and half over the white that hasn't been coloured I went used a deep shimmer red, then bright red (Love+ from sugarpill) then a bright pink then a more white pink and another pink just over the lids of my eyes. Using magentric (sugarpill) and another red shimmer loose shadow I went over the pink & red parts. Regular eyeliner but I pulled it out quite far in the inner corners and added lashes. I went over the outline with a liquid liner, and went for a basic lip with some bright blush!

I'm going slightly mad

So I was bored and home alone and wanted to try something a bit different. So I picked out some random colours and started applying them over my lids. Then I went a little bit more over the top. Then I went even more over the top and this is what I came up with:

I also discovered that the powder that I was using to set my foundation made my face look really odd in pictures but it looked fantastic in real life. Very weird. You can see I don't have mascara in one of the pictures, too. Whoops. This was using only Sugarpill colours.

Then I went to fix a couple of things and I was like "I wonder what it would look like if I extended this bit of colour? Ooh and if I added this? I really like this colour, I wonder where I can put it?"

Then this is what happened:

The verdict? I shouldn't be trusted home alone with make-up and nothing to do. I did wear this for another good 6 hours after I did it, though.
