Hello lovelies!
Welcome to another first in a new series, the EOTD/FOTD Series (or Eye/s of the Day or Face of the Day series) I do a lot of looks and I thought that I would share them with all of you out there in blog land since some of you may or may not follow my Facebook page or my Instagram. But it is entirely possibly that you are following and have missed my EOTDs due to Facebook's new fail matrix. So I will be sharing here on my blog some of the various looks from one of my favorite indie companies BeautyBarBaby Mineral Makeup.
This look was done with a combination of BeautyBarBaby's :Snow Ball, Black Widow, Devil's Breath, Midnight, Poisoned Apply, Seductress and Electric Blue glitter on my eyes. I am also wearing Spicy Watermelon on my cheeks and Inferno Lipstick .
For this look I did it with a combination of Beauty Bar Baby's : SnoBall, Devil's Breath, Poisoned Apple, Black Widow and Gothic Grey. I am also wearing I Fairy Dolly + Red Lenses from Uniqso. I used the same brushes that were used in the look above from the BornPrettyStore.
You can purchase BeautyBarBaby's gorgeous makeup here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BeautyBarBaby I hoped you like the start of this new series! Until next time lovlies!
Hello Lovelies!
I am back again kicking off a new series entitled Cosplay 101! I am slowly venturing into the realm of cosplay even though I have always loved to do makeup inspired looks I decided to take it a step further and actually incorporate my makeup with a full cosplay look. So this series will be simple tips and trick that I learn along the way to help others that are just starting out because, let's be honest, starting to cosplay can be seriously intimidating and confusing. Since I currently can't sew even with Martha Stewart and the entire Heroes of Cosplay cast helping me, I figured I would start with that I do feel comfortable with, circle lenses and makeup. So, I did a video instructional on how to open up your circle lenses when you first get them and some basic care.
Please always remember some basic guidelines when handling and wearing circle lenses.
1. ALWAYS WASH YOUR HANDS!
-While this may be a no brainer to most of us, it is often really easy to be tempted to pop those gorgeous lenses in your eyes but you have to remember that you carry millions of germs on your hands from everything that you touch and come in contact with. You don't want to put any of those in your eye so please wash your hands when handling (taking out or putting in ) circle lenses.
2. If your circle lens is bothering you take it out!
-There are several reasons why your lenses may be bothering ranging from simple dust in your eyes to more serious issues like a tear. If you eye is flowing like a waterfall or it hurts please take your lenses out. You only have one pair of eyes.
3.Never share your circle lenses with other people.
-While you may love your best friend you really don't want to risk an eye infection from sharing the same lenses since your bestie may not wash his or her hands-
4. DON'T swim, wear them in a suana/steam room, or sleep in your lenses.
-They weren't made for things like this so don't risk your eyes in attempt to look cute in the steam room, swimming pool or passing out in bed. -
5.Your lenses are only good for 1 year!
-While I know that is painful to toss out those amazing lenses that look so fabulous on you or look great for this cosplay, circle lenses are only good for one year. So mark your case on the date you opened them and then throw them out. You can always keep a list of the lenses that you love that are going to expire and hunt the circle lens sites for sales and pick up a new pair before your precious lenses are thrown in the trash.
6.It is always a good idea to keep an empty case with contact solution in your purse or pockets.
- Always care an empty case with solution with you just in case you do get something in your eye and your need to take your lenses out.
I hope that you found this little guide helpful about how to open and care for your circle lenses. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me! Until next time lovelies!
Hello again lovelies!
It is August and the weather is finally pretty here with less than two weeks until school starts for two of my little Dreadfuls. I am feeling much better (still not 100%) but I think that this stomach bug is finally on the way out. So I was able to edit another video from the vault and upload it today. Originally I was going to upload a circle lens review on some gorgeous pink lenses but the video was so shaky that I couldn't do it. If it made me want to throw up editing, I know that it will make people sick watching it so it looks like I am doing a new review of those lenses tonight with possibly a tutorial. So instead of the circle lens review I did upload my requested glitter brow tutorial.
I didn't speed the time up since I was actually talking in this tutorial so I do have to apologize for the time. However if you are interested in the products used in this tutorial, here is the list
Lit Cosmetics glitter "Trend" in S3 and glitter adhesive
Kawayii (EOS) Super Big Eye lenses in Purple and Green from Uniqso.
Be sure to use the code "ddivine10" to get 10% off your order.
I hope that you all enjoy this tutorial and quick blog update. Until next time lovelies!
Hello lovelies!
I have to admit that I have been slacking with the blog but I am back this time with a review not of a contact lens but of a lovely lash company called Lash Domain. I have been wanting to review this company for awhile because they really are fantastic. All of my Red Cherry lashes that I do for my looks have come from them and I have even ordered some of their Lash Domain exclusive brand lashes.You may even see some of my pictures on their site when you go. Needless to say that I am super impressed with their quality and their prices. The staff at Lash Domain are super friendly and always willing to help. The lashes were AMAZING. They were not only super soft but very durable. But if you are anything like me you want to see the product on someone, so here are some of the lashes that I have purchased from them.
Red Cherry Lashes #100
Lash Domain's Madame CEO lashes
Red Cherry Lashes #76
Lash Domain's Cleopatra Lashes
So the break down...
Quality: 9.5 out of 10 bats
These lashes are not only gorgeous but soft to the touch and super durable. I have cleaned and reused them several times and they are just like new.
Price: 9.5 out of 10 bats
Their prices are extremely reasonable and they often have sales which makes it even better.
Customer Service: 9.8 out of 10 bats
The customer service with this company is fantastic. I have never had a problem with them and they have always taken care of me. I can't ask for anything more.
Shipping : 9.8 out of 10 bats
While often shipping is out of a company's hands (especially if things are coming from overseas) I find it really important. I HATE waiting for things in the mail. I stalk the mailman like a ninja for packages and I hate the utter disappointment of not getting my package in a timely manner.The shipping cost was extremely fair and the turn around from my order to in my hot little hands and on my eyeballs was super quick.
Overall : 9.7 out of 10 bats
This company sells a great quality product with a reasonable price. Their customer service is fantastic and shipping can't be beat. So if you are looking for lashes I highly recommend going there and when you do tell them Dreadfully Divine sent ya.
**Now some of you may wonder or even ask, "Dreadful, why didn't you give them 10 out of 10 bats?" In all honestly, I rarely ever give 10 out of 10 for anything. I find that a constant 10 out of 10 really diminishes the superior rating. Perhaps I am slightly jaded from years of retail but I want my readers to know that I am very through and honest with my ratings. So know that each review the product or company really worked to get that review number from me. ^_~**
