Video Share-Candy Corn Eyes

The feisty Dumpster Dollie has posted a cute idea for October makeup-candy corn colors!  Remember, use whatever eyeshadow brand or primer works best for you.  A white base simply helps colors to stand out brighter. :)

Have fun, and enjoy all those Halloween goodies!!! (Target is currently carrying syringe pens.  I got two packs-I've been looking for those for months!)

Video Share-Pixiwoo Grunge

I know this sort of look is not for everyone, but I feel like certain aspects of the grunge look evoke a "tuberculosis chic" sort of feel.  In fact, though I have not tried cream eye shadow yet, I often wear brown eye shadow in the blown-out, kind of haphazard style shown in the vid.
Enjoy!

Have a wonder-filled day, everyone!

Video Share-DIY Corrective Concealer

If you have read some of my earlier posts, you know that I am a big fan of DIY fashion, beauty, and hair products.  I love to just dig in and try new things, especially since DIY usually has the advantage of being cheaper than ready-made products as well as being completely customizable to what you need.

Wayne Goss, Youtuber and makeup artist, is a proponent of corrective concealers for undereye darkness and overall issues with ashy or dull skin. In this video, he shows you how to make your own peach or pink-toned concealer to brighten the undereye area.  I haven't tried this yet, but I think I will just as soon as I can get my hands on some peach or coral lipstick.

So, what do you think of mixing your own concealer, or odd-colored correctors in general?  Comments are welcome.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonder-filled day!

Video Share-Pixiwoo Blue

I have to admit, blue is the most difficult color for to use in my everyday cosmetics.  I have bluish-greenish eyes, which can make blue eyeshadows look dated or just all-out strange.  Someone who has no trouble with this icy color, however, is Sam from Pixiwoo, who uploaded this gem of a tutorial.  But remember, just because she used a particular palette does not mean you have to go out and buy something to achieve this look. Just use similar shades from your own collection, or tweak it a little to suit your tastes.  There are no rules-just have fun. :)

Have a wonder-filled day!

Video Share-6-in-1 Laid Back Hairstyles

For the past year or so, I have been growing out the length of my hair.  I someday hope to have "fantasy hair"--for me, that's about waist-length hair.  Along the way, I have been growing out some awkward bangs and layers, and trying both to baby my hair (preventing the need for a drastic haircut) and learn new ways to style it (preventing the craving for a drastic haircut ).  Bubzbeauty, though not Goth in the least, has a knack for coming up with pretty, relaxed-looking hairstyles for layered hair.  

Today I tried the fan-shaped bun.  It turned out pretty well, but I think I will practice a bit before I show you guys how it looks on my head.
In the meantime, have a wonder-filled day!

Video Share-Glam Red and Black

I love the combination of red and black for eye shadow, but it can be difficult to pull off.  Here Goldiestarling shows off her talents and finesse, and details a glamorous twist on the combination.

Also, remember that you can tweak the blush and lip color to whatever your dark little heart desires.
Have a wonder-filled day!

Video Share: Gothy Goodness Without Breaking the Bank

The lovely SyntheticDoll recently put out a video all about being glamorous on a budget.  Being a cheapskate, this appeals to me immensely.
Enjoy!

Have a wonder-filled, glamorous day!

Video Share! Thrift Stores and Why We Love Them

I ran across this cool video from kazlovesbats which was too fun to only put into my makeup and style list on YouTube.

Any of you who are interested in thrifting, here is a video for you!
