Halloween Series: Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) Inspired EOTD!
Hey True Believers!
Today I have a fun, EOTD (Eye of the Day) for you that kind of fits into the Halloween theme for this month. I chose to do an EOTD inspired by Jessica Drew’s Spider-Woman. Spiders and Halloween are a natural match! 
I based this more on her costume, than her costume and powers as the green of her venom blasts just didn’t look right thrown in there. I also did a variant with lower lashes, and then some shots without. I didn’t know which I liked more so I’m putting them both in here!
Also, Lime Crime was kind enough to send me three eyeliners, two of which are brand new and unreleased called Rhyme and Reason to try out. I used Rhyme in this look as the gold liner above the black liner.
Rhyme and Reason will be officially announced and available as a discounted set for a 24-hour window ONLY October 22-23. After the 24 hours, they will be gone until their permanent return this Holiday Season.
Anyway, I hope you all like!
Psylocke (Armored Costume) Inspired Look!
Hey True Believers!
Today I have a Psylocke inspired look for you! Psylocke, aka Betsy Braddock, is a member of the X-Men (currently X-Force) who is a mutant that has the powers of telepathy and telekenisis. I based this look off of her armored costume from the late 80s before she got sucked into the Siege Perilous, kidnapped by The Hand, and her mind forced into the body of the Japanese assassin known as Kwannon. (Prior to all of that, Betsy was a caucasian woman from England).
I used a nail dotting kit to get the kinetic energy dots from her psychic knife which is a new technique for me that I’m still playing with. I chose to make the eyebrows and the eyeliner in glitter to represent her armor. This was taking me so long, that I decided to only give one eye the psychic knife which is kind of funny because Betsy usually only uses one hand for that, so it worked out. This is my favorite Psylocke costume, so of course I chose to tackle this one first.
This also gave me the opportunity to use the Violet Noir lashes Faux Lash was kind enough to send me! A small review of the lashes will be in the bottom of this post.
Enjoy!

Storm Inspired Look! (Ver.1)
Hey True Believers!
I know some of you have been waiting for a good while for me to do a Storm look. I’ve been putting it off until I could get something special for it (She’s definitely one of my top 5 favorite super heroines and favorite X-Men of all time, so I wanted to do her right and do her justice), but then some friends of mine had an Avengers themed costume birthday party this past weekend and I decided to go as casual Storm. (I even wore my awesome new Tokidoki Storm hoodie (not pictured >.<)!!). I figured this would be a good opportunity to do the Storm look. I’m going to call this a version 1 (I plan on doing other versions at some point 
) as this one is based on both of her gold and black costumes (the one pictured above and her original from the 70s which was slightly different and included her bloodstone/ruby brooch and bikini like top and bottom.)
I blended the white (that represents her hair) and the black (her costume) in the middle into a “stormy” gray which to me, was a representation of her powers over the weather, as well as the gold lightening bolt along the outside which pulled from the gold in her costume and also represented her ability to conjure lightning.
(Ps. I’m sorry about my skin! I’m having weird skin/dry patch issues. >.< Oh the joys of being a woman! lol Also, the wig I’m wearing is white, but the reflection off of my halter top and the bathroom walls made it look blonde >.<)
(PPs. I’m not wearing contacts. I photoshopped my iris blue.)
I hope you like!

Sailor Pluto Inspired Look! (Beauty Blogger Collaboration Pt. 1)
Hey True Believers!
A group of beauty bloggers and myself were chatting via twitter a week or so ago about the 20th anniversary of Sailor Moon and how much we loved the series. (and some of us were watching eps to relive it all!) And we all decided to do a group collaboration to celebrate it! We each picked a Sailor Scout/Senshi and a villain/villainess from the series to do EOTDs and FOTDs on!
This week is Sailor Scout/Senshi week! So I’ve chosen Sailor Pluto to be my EOTD! I won’t tell you who I picked for next week so it will be a surprise!
I wanted a unique eye shape for this and I really love the work of Karolina aka Grzee Makeup Blog (she is SOOOO amazing!!!) and used her viva la catalunya eye shape as the inspiration for this! I changed the colors to suit Sailor Pluto’s costume and hair.
Check out the other’s looks!

Polaris Inspired Look (Ver. 1, Women of X-Factor Series Pt.2). Collaboration with artist Sara Richard!
Hey True Believers!
Polaris is the next gal in the Women of X-Factor series collaboration I’m doing with the amazing Sara Richard! Polaris/Lorna Dane is the other daughter of Magneto and has the same mutant power as him, Magnetism. Her hair is naturally green (and GORGEOUS!) and she’s pretty freaking awesome! I based this look off of her time as one of the members of the second X-Factor team (During a time when they had coordinating outfits that made them look more like a team unit). She’s had a few variations of her X-Factor outfits/uniforms, but I liked this one the best. (I’m a 90′s X-Men kind of gal! )
As usual, this look was based on not the above photo exactly, but a combination of the character’s physical features, personality, costume, and powers.
With that being said,, here’s the look! Sara’s illustration of Polaris wearing the makeup I’ve created will follow my photos so make sure you go oo and aah over it (I TOTALLY DID! It’s FIERCE!)
Make sure you go to Makeupbee and like the photo! I’ve entered it in their contest with Sugarpill! Thank you!
