A busy Christmas Schedule!



Officially off for the rest of the year, school starts up on January 8th and I have a few plans in between that, so let's see what I'm doing as of now:

19th Dec: Finally seeing my babu
20th Dec: Buying the last christmas presents with my sister
24th-25th Dec: Christmas Eve
27th-28th Dec: Emi's visiting
31th Dec -1st Jan: New Years Eve
4th-7th Jan: Going to England with babu

In between that there'll be sleeping in and long nights of research for my big assignment in January.
After school yesterday I went to Copenhagen to get a few gifts, as well as hang out with Emi, who's on the island during christmas, she vlogged while we were out so if you're interested, here's the video 8D



Did you guys hear that China has banned shark fin soup from official banquets? I'm so proud of you China ;w; even though it's mostly for financial reasons, it's still a big step forward in the preserving of sharks
Future generations should have the same right as me to have an irrational fear of them!


Full PlayCute & Demi-Diamond Lash
With summer sunset-shadow

And my haircolor is seriously out of this world right now, can we just? I'm wondering if I should make a tutorial about how to get pastel hair? I know that a lot of blogs have this already, but people still ask about it, so would you guys be interested?

"Girl with the Parasol" & New Make-Up Palette!


Over the last few weeks I've been working in cooperation with the danish National Museum on their new exhibition "The Girl with the Parasol", where I've been asked to administrate the 'living picture' part, which is - if you haven't already guessed - cosplay.
We launched the exhibition friday and opened to the public today, and I've been hostessing with a few other cosplayers, which was a very new experience, but very exciting and I enjoyed it a lot.



If you live in Denmark, or are visiting over the next 5 months, you should definitely have a look at the amazing art that is displayed, and I personally and other costume makers will be there hostessing and creating events during some weekends!



Friday after we got off, me and Mie went to get some dinner and then had a quick look-see around town, and since I really wanted to oogle some Urban Decay we went to look at make-up.
Passing through Sephora, which I've done a few times, always just rushed before, because I couldn't deal with the prices, but yesterday we took our time and I found a palette that I really really liked.

I've been itching to get some shiny eye shadows, since most of the once I own are matte, and shimmer just gives a much more alive effect when you do costume make-up (and party make-up for that matter!)



I found this "Front Cover" Hot Shades Cool Colours, and I just knew I had to take it home after I'd tried some. All the colors I could use and with just the right amount of shine to them, yeeesss.


My two favorite colors are definitely Flash and Spark, I can't wait to play with this!


The packaging itself is definitely theme based, and something I think Front Cover does a lot, I'm not really for or against it, but I do feel that the bottom layer could easily break off when opened D:


Also as you can see my hair is now a nice shade of pastel blue and I'm really really satisfied with it at the moment, it'll be hell to keep, but I do actually feel a little more mature with this - the lipstick helps too of course :P

Make-up 2006-2013

Since I've been make-upless most of this week because of sickness, I thought it would be fun to see how I've used make-up for the last 6 years... wow... six years.. That's a while, haha. And I will feel free to say that I've gotten A LOT better.

None of the pictures have been photoshopped.



I started out with just some mascara and eyeshadow, very very discount eyeshadow, but I didn't want to use a lot of money on it at the time.




Then I got my first pencil eyeliner, and oh gosh was this a party, I also started getting interested in alternative styles around this time. Still hadn't started plucking eyebrows at this point.




This is a drunken photo, but I still imagine that this is pretty much how I looked in my everyday, still only used eyeliner and mascara. But tried to make the eyeliner appear darker.




The scenekid style started appearing around this point, and I fell in love with the make-up, especially the pink shade ALL AROUND the eyes, and I thought I looked badass. I did however get more control over my eyeliner.




But then I thought Visual Kei looked way better. I shaved off my eyebrows and wore black eyeshadow and liquid eyeliner. I also started using dry foundation around this time.




I 'perfected' the look with some white eyeliner, and wore this for the longest time, and I still think that I actually did a good job with this very very dark look. Even though it was waay too much for everyday, haha.



I started experimenting with adding colors, and the look also got darker. What a mess. 




I started using circle lenses every time I dressed up, and my eyebrows were still almost completely gone, believe it or not, there's actually some hairs there. But thin eyebrows were still all the rage.




This droppy-eye I kept for an entire year, and I loved how it looked. I think I got the idea from gyaru with their droopy eyes, I only used liquid eyeliner and black eyeshadow at this point, which probably saved my skin after the previous years of over-using



I moved again and changed up the droopy effect, so it wasn't as bottom heavy, because I wanted to use more colors. And started letting my brows grow out.


I started using an orangy-red on the bottom outer corner, and did this for a long while, it just gave the look something.



 

Before changing up the look I started using darker eyeshadows again. And my eyebrows grew out almost completely.





And this is pretty much how it is now, I used liquid liner, mild orange colors of and black eyeshadow and false eyelashes. The outerpart of my eyebrow is also shaved off, to get a higher arch.

Selca's from Japan

What can I say... I camwhored in Japan as well, more than I've done at home for a while, SO HAVE A POST WITH MY FACE!

If you haven't seen it, go look at the ALMOST complete haul here


This was the first time I wore lashes /for fashion purposes EVER, and tbh, I felt way overdone and a little silly, since I've only used lashes for cosplay before. But I have to admit that lashes DOES give the make-up that.. POP


I'm wearing my GALAXY shirt from Harajuku, anyone that have been shopping with me, knows that I love baseball tee's and I just thought it looked awesome. And my necklace from Pariskids.




I also realized I could actually take pictures of my outfits /which I haven't done in forever, so did not do it everyday, just because of awkward
I got a red checkered button up, and I've wanted one in forever, so I really like it a lot, except from the color is slightly annoying. Also wearing thigh-high illusion tights, which I love! I've bought two pairs, just because I know I will be using them a lot!
And my favorite pair of boots that I got on my second day!





And I bought a Superman shirt, because fuck yes! I really wanted a blue pull-over Superman shirt, but they were only black in the stores, and the display one was too small for my comfort, boo! But I do like this one, so it's okay!



Here I'm wearing a hoodie I got in Harajuku, which has bat-sleeves, a big hood and a huge cross on the back, also a skeleton hand necklace with golden chain, I looove this necklace so much, the gold chain just makes it look a little more classy. Also a pair of stockings that, if you have tumblr, and just go to some fashion blogs, you've probably seen, and I think they're extremely awesome, and I'm kinda sad I did not buy back-up ones, because they're so thin and break easily. /And yes, my legs aren't symmetrical, no, it's not the tights.




This is my new years outfit, and oh my gosh, my hair is styled differently! I know, what is this madness?
I'm wearing earrings and a cuff claire's and a long sleeved t-shirt with crosses, it's so comfortable, oh my god.




I decided I had to wear my Hysteric Glamour T-shirt, before I left Japan, so this was one of the days, and then a spiky necklace that I got with one of the shirts I bought /Denmark, why don't you have stuff like that?




Outfit from my last full day in Japan, wearing my Pariskids ECG necklace and cross bracelet, forever21 stud necklace. ANAP Boy dress pullover, G.U. tank-top.. dress thing /YES IT'S A SKIRT OKAY! I WORE IT! OUTSIDE! and my Bonita red biker boots.
