GRWM Godzilla Lip Art Tutorial ft Lime Crime, Eye Kandy, & Sugarpill

Here is the lip art I wore to the Godzilla movie and you can see the get ready with me video here. I wanted the lip to have elements of the sea as Godzilla likes to chill out and swim through with majestic beauty and slice through the waves with his brutal fins.


And if you are in need of awesome pigmented matte shadows or beautiful sparkly pigments check out Sugarpill here, along with many other gorgeous shadows & lashes!


Enjoy!

GRWM Godzilla Makeup Tutorial ft Sugarpill, Inglot & Girls With Attitude

I went to the new Godzilla movie and thought while I was at it I'd record a get ready with me tutorial. I based my makeup on Godzilla himself and used some green lizard-like colours from Sugarpill such as Subterranean, Absinthe and Lumi, along with some exotic eyeliner using Urban Decay Perversion and Inglot's ever smooth matte gel eyeliner.

I also tired these amazing false lashes that the gals from Girls with Attitude sent me and I instantly fell in love with them. They flare out at the edges to accentuate the cat eye liner and fit superbly, with easy application using the glue included in the box.

I also created some dark and glittery lips and you can check out the lip art tutorial when it comes out soon...

Nail Tutorial: How to Fix a Broken Nail

I had cracked my nail and wanted to forgo the big chop off, so I employed this great method for holding the nail together and thought I'd share it with you. It works very well and uses a few items you should have lying around the house. And if you use non acetone nail polish remover it can last 2-3 nail polish changes and otherwise it holds your nail together until you change your manicure.

By the way, so far it has latest for 5 days as has my latest manicure and I really recommend the method if a nasty crack befalls your nail.

Enjoy!
