Today marks the first day of autumn. The season when the leaves go from green to warm oranges and yellows, when just a handful of sunny days are left, when you can wear your favourite jacket, and when you can get away with drinking hot chocolate everyday (well, almost everyday).
Its also the season for changing out the waterproof mascara and bronzer in your makeup bag, to warm dark tones of eyeshadows and lipsticks in every dark shade of red and purple.
This is one of the looks I did yesterday, the remake of what I had done the day before. You never really get to do stuff like this as a makeup artist right out of school. But no one can stop me from doing it on myself.
I guess weird is an understatement for this look, but I am just so in love with it.
As of late, Im feeling very inspired, and motivated to keep things weird. So today, my face had to go through 4 different makeup looks. One of them included a lot of gloss, that went into my eyes, so my face is not feeling too fresh atm. But I seriously had so much fun doing some completely different makeup looks back to back.
I started by redoing the makeup I did yesterday for a photoshoot, just a bit darker and weirder. Then I took some gloss and gold pigment, mixed it all up, and smeared it all over my eyes, and lips. Which luckily turned out great. Like, I looooved it. But then it started running, and clouding up my contacts, so I had to take it of. But I still felt the creativity bubbling, so I decided to film a video, which will be up September 1st. (autumn looks are my favourite, hint hint). And then I threw some glitter all over that shit. Didnt look as cool as I had hoped, so no pics of that. oops.
If you wanna get into the weird mode like I am, check out @princessgollum , @vforvoid , @teratology and @girlacne on instagram to get inspired.
