Egyptian Pharaoh Lip Art ft Sugarpill & Born Pretty Store

Here's this Egyptian Pharaoh inspired lip art. I took elements of the strong contrasting colours of gold and blue seen a lot of ancient Egyptian art and tried to create the striped look of the nemes headdress or head cloth worn by the pharaohs that symbolises their power. I also wanted to incorporate the strong black eyeliner featured in the makeup, so I added the black outline and upturned corners of the mouth. I love how these lips are bright in colour and excitingly shimmery, but still dark and mysterious.

I really love ancient Egyptian imagery and I haven't dipped into that inspiration for a long time. The Bast makeup look that It’sBlackFriday uploaded a couple of weeks ago made me remember awesome look of the ancient Egyptian style and I was enticed to create this lip art.

I used to do tons of asymmetric eye looks with the eye of Ra and other god’s symbols and I'll have to bring that back into my make up entourage, and maybe make an eye tutorial.

Enjoy!

Jamaican Flag Lip Art Shaggy Gig inspired ft Kryolan, Sugarpill & Eye Kandy

Here's a lip art I created inspired by the Shaggy gig I went to the other week. I based the lip on the Jamaican flag, so I've used black, yellow and green and added added some glittery fun with Eye Kandy glitters and Sugarpill sparkly neon pigments for the pumpin’ party aspect of the Shaggy gig.

Kiss & Mötley Crüe Gig Makeup & OOTD

I recently went to the Kiss & Mötley Crüe gig, and I banged out a glam and massively dramatic look for the occasion. 

I based my makeup on the colours both bands usually use on their albums or in the case of Kiss, the makeup. So I decided on silver, red and black and there was no option but for me to use Sugarpill Tiara, Eye Kandy Jawbreaker and MAC 3D Silver glitter, Sugarpill Stella, Bulletproof and @#$%! shadows.

A tutorial post for the lips will be coming soon.

Deep Purple gig Makeup & OOTD

The Deep Purple gig was last Friday and I couldn't turn up without some aptly deep purple makeup and most sassy outfit. 

I went purple all over and used my favourite purple eyeshadows including Maybelline Color tattoo Painted Purple as a base, MAC Violet pigment and Vellum, Inglot #439 #441, Lime crime Empress and deepened it all up with Sugarpill Stella. To add glam, I couldn't go past a light sprinkling of Eye Kandy Sour Grape and Jelly bean.

Enjoy!
