They All Float while Black Cats Cross Stripper Zombies on the Ladder to Hell with the Book of Honorious and The Necronomicon...

*Purchased*

Hello Lovelies!
 
      I am back again with another EOTD look! For this look I am using some Notoriously Morbid goodies. Notoriously Morbid had a really amazing Halloween Limited Edition (as well as an resurrection sale for old shadows on Halloween) that came out which I managed to get my hands on. But I wasn't able to able to really play with the gorgeous colors today.

I know Ash, can you believe that it took me this long to do a look with them?

  I know that is almost sacrilegious especially when they had a shadow called Necronomicon. Which being a massive Lovecraft and EvilDead/Army of Darkness Fan I knew I had to have the collection.

The shadow is just as awesome as this movie....and of course seriously LOVECRAFT!

 I also got a sample of the new product, Shadow Bind, that is releasing in January in my order as well.

Damn straight Ash, it is FUCKING Groovy!

  The Shadow Bind literally transformed these shadows from beautiful to FUCKING gorgeous. Don't worry there will be a review about this product later. But enough chattering, on to the look!

I used the following products for this look:

Lunatick Cosmetic Labs Primer 

Notoriously Morbid (NM) Shadow Bind * (releases in January)

NM They All Float
NM Black Cat Crossing
NM Ladder to Hell
NM Stripper Zombie
NM Book of Honorius ** (Halloween Limited Edition)
NM Necronomicon ** ( Halloween Limited Edition )

  Normally these shadows have a nice and pretty sparkle, but combined the with Shadow Bind it kicked it up 10 notches.

That was my face right there staring at my eye with the Shadow Bind..

   So seriously lovelies, even IF you missed the Halloween Limited Edition Set you still can get the other shadows and put them over Shadow Bind. If you want to pick up anything from Notoriously Morbid you can do so here. You can also follow then on Facebook, the Facebook Fanbook Page, and of course Instagram. And if you don't mind please head up to the top and rate this post! ^_~  So until next time lovelies, stay groovy and watch the original Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 cause Bruce Campbell is the man.

The Key Master found Mass Hysteria during Spiritual Turbulence by Not Crossing the Streams

*Press*
Hello Lovelies!
    I am back and feeling a slight bit better amid the plague that is lingering in my household. I actually felt like getting up and putting makeup on today instead of just wishing for sleep constantly.

Yup, that is all that I want to do lately with this nasty bug.

Shocking as it may be, I have pretty much spent the whole week without a smidgen of makeup on my face.

Yup I totally look like this without any makeup.

   But since I am feeling mostly human today I wanted to bust out with some gorgeous new colors that I received from Darling Girl.  That is right, as you can tell from the animate gifs that are all over this page the collection I am working with today is inspired by Ghostbusters.

What?! Did you say Ghost Busters? 

These colors are absolutely gorgeous and when I saw sneak peeks of them in the Darling Girl Fan Page on Facebook I was instantly blown away.

Feel the wrath of gorgeous fabulous pretty colors!!

I had a hard time choosing what colors to play with today since they are all so pretty and shimmery!

OMG WHAT COLORS TO CHOOSE!?!?

But this is what I finally decided on...

   I used the following products with this look:

Lunatick Cosmetic Labs Primer

Darling Girl (DG) Ghost Job

Serendipity  (DG)

Key Master  (DG)

Mass Hysteria  (DG)

Spiritual Turbulence  (DG)

Don't Cross the Streams  (DG)
He Slimed Me (DG)

The assorted Eye brushes from the 15 piece pink brush set from the Born Pretty Store (use code KLH10 for 10% off and free shipping off your order)

Barbara Lashes from Oh My Lash

 Now sadly, Serendipity was a GWP shadow and is no longer available however all of the other shadows used were from the Who Ya Gonna Call Collection from Darling Girl. You can pick up the shadows here. You can also follow Darling Girl on Facebook and Instagram. Be sure to join the Darling Girl Fan Group in order to get all the sneak peeks of the new and upcoming collections that are coming out! I hope that you enjoyed this look and until next time lovelies!

EOTD: The Fluff Emience of Purple Rain with Gypsy Smoke...(and some swatches too)

*Purchased*
Hello Lovelies!
    I am back again today with a new EOTD featuring Candii Blossom Cosmetics. I dunno about you, but there are some days that just feel a color when I am doing makeup and today just felt like a purple kind of day. Candii Blossom Cosmetics has some really gorgeous purples but out of all of them Purple Rain is my favorite. Since I am child of the 80s, when I hear Purple Rain I instantly think of Prince.

Yup, Purple Rain will forever invoke the thought of Prince.

  There is something about a man with eyeliner and makeup wearing high heels that just makes me so happy. Perhaps the 80s is where my love of drag queens started cause almost every band had men in makeup and Prince was just the embodiment of sass and fabulousness.

Look at all this sass and fabulousness!

 When I saw Purple Rain in the CBC store, not only did the song pop into my head but I knew I had to have it.

I totally wanted Purple Rain on my eyeballs immediately.

But enough chattering on about how lovely the color is and awesome dancing Prince Gifs,let's get to what you are really after! Pictures!

I used the following items for this look:

Lunatick Cosmetic Labs Primer

Candii Blossom Cosmetics Fluff

Candii Blossom Cosmetics Purple Rain

Candii Blossom Cosmetics Eminence

 Candii Blossom Cosmetics Gypsy Smoke

Wolfe FX Essential Palette for the dots and liner
Ardell Corset Lashes


Now both Fluff and Purple Rain are out of stock currently, however they should be restocked soon so don't cry...

Don't Cry Prince, Purple Rain will be back in stock soon.

 I hope that you enjoyed this EOTD and some added swatches! You can pick up Candii Blossom Cosmetics on Etsy. You can also follow them on Facebook, Instagram and their Facebook Fan Page for the latest sales updates. Until next time lovelies!

Sailor Moon Crystal EOTD: Who is that Masked Man?

*purchased*
Hello Lovelies!
   I am back with the next installment of my Sailor Moon Crystal inspired looks . It seemed like FOREVER before the newest episode, episode two, came out so I wanted to do another look. Because I was like this every single day.

Yup this is me checking Hulu everyday even though it is listed when the next episode comes out.

    So I decided to go back and rewatch the originals. I had finished my binge watching of Orange is the New Black, the newest season of The Glades and now currently the newest season of Lost Girl. (And yes I am a HUGE GOT fan as well) So on nights when Mr Dreadful headed to the garage to tinker on his car, I sat down and happily watched some Classic Sailor Moon. Then I realized that while there were lots and lots of looks for the scouts the certain masked man doesn't have a whole lot of looks dedicated to him.

You know who I am talking about...

   Yup, you know who I am talking about, Tuxedo Mask, the mysterious hero to helps out Sailor Moon when she is in trouble.

I wanted to stay true to the masked look without doing an actual mask so this is what I came up with.

Tuxedo Mask without the masked look

  I decided to do a smokey eye with double liner in order to give the masked effect. I am quite pleased with the look that it is still soft enough to wear during the day and the two liners do give the masked feel without having to paint my entire face.
I used the following products for this look
Lunatick Cosmetics Labs Primer
NYX black bean (on lid only)
Dark Heart Designs (DHD) Audrey
DHD Wine Red
DHD Toxic
DHD Vampire Red
DHD Grace
Uniqso Kawayii Snow Blue Lenses (used "dreadfullydivine" for 10% off)
Moon Princess Lashes from Born Pretty Store ( use code KLH10 for 10% off)
Wolfe FX Essential Palette for the white liner.

You can find Dark Heart Designs on StoreEnvy, Facebook, and their Facebook Fan Page. I would love to hear what you think of the new Sailor Moon Series and this series of looks so leave a comment below to make Tuxedo Mask Happy and you do want to make him happy right?

Yup, of course you do!

I hope that you enjoyed this installment of the Sailor Moon Crystal Series so until time lovelies!

In the pursuit of Fabulous: Review of Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics

*Press Sample*
Hello Lovelies!
   I am back again with another makeup review of an indie company called Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics.  Michelle, the owner, contacted me of Facebook and asked if I was interested in doing a review of her cosmetics. She was sweet enough to allow me to pick out some colors and even offered up one of her new vegan lip balms as well and I was thrilled! (Cause I have become a serious lip balm addict recently, I just cant get enough of them). So after around a week from chatting with Michelle my package of goodies arrived..

Check out the cute top hat image on her logo! Love it!

These were the colors that I chose... (All colors were swatched over Lunatick Cosmetic Lab's Primer and in sunlight)

 Dance Magic Dance is listed as a shimmery grey toned purple with lots of silver sparkles. I was a nice dark purple with dark grey (almost black) base with silver shimmers. It is a gorgeous color and I constantly am singing the song from Labyrinth every time I look at this name.

 Dearly Departed is a black with purple and red undertones and red sparkles.  This is one of my favorites due to the combination of the purple and red undertones. It gives the color a lot of depth.

 Hello Sweetie is  a light purplish pink color which is almost matte. There is a slight hint of sparkle but it is straight and to the point. It is lighter than Tangle

 Mermaid is what I would consider a dark sea foam green with a hint of blue with gold sparkles.

 Mermaid's Tears is listed as shimmery blue with a green/yellow duochrome  and lots of sparkles. It is s nice medium blue with the green/yellow shift.  This was another one of my favorites due to the depth of the shadow with the duochrome.

 Morpheus is a lovely black shadow with a ton of blue shimmer which reminds me of the Dream King. While I am not sure if it is named in honor of Gaiman's character it does make me think of him.

 Tangle is listed as a shimmery pink with a purple duochrome shift. The pink and the purple make a lovely color almost creating a nice pink/purple hybrid without being too much of one or the other.It reminds me of my daughter's Rapunzel pjs that she loves to dance around like a princess. It

Unicorns is listed as a mid toned blue that has turquoise, purple/pinkish highlights, and purple,blue, and aqua highlights. This is more of a blue base colors over Mermaid's Tears which seems to have a hint more green. 

I also chose the Watermelon Vegan Lipbalm which is softer lip balm that glides over your lips and is extremely moisturizing. The watermelon scent was light and natural and strong and candy like. I was really pleased with it. 

I always like to see shadows on a person as well in reviews so now on to the looks!

Color and Pigmentation 9 out of 10 bats

   I have to say that while some people may be a little weary of a new indie company I was pleasantly pleased with Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics. The colors that I received were well mixed, bright and vibrant. The shadows lasted all day in sweltering Florida heat and humidity without an issue. 

Shipping and Turn Around Time (not Rated)

  Since I didn't order anything from WBC I don't think that it is fair for me to give a rating. When I order from Wonderland Beauty I will update this rating and the overall. 

Affordability 9.6 out 10 bats

   Wonderland Cosmetics offers two sizes for her shadows the "sample" which is a very large bag with over 1/4 a tsp for $1.30 and the full size which runs 2.7-3 grams for $3.25 and her balms are $2.30 which is a great deal. You can pick up good deal of colors without breaking the bank and that is wonderful things especially when you are on a tight budget. 

Customer Service 9 out of 10 bats

   Michelle was really lovely. She was extremely prompt and professional in dealing with any questions that I had about her products.

Overall 9.3 out of 10 bats

    Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics is a lovely new indie company on the scene. I was pleased with the products that I was given to review.While she doesn't have a large selection of colors, which is common for new indie companies, I look forward to see what color creations she will think of next and with her prices anyone can afford to pick up some new shadows without having to worry if they are going to have pinch pennies for everything else.  You can find Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics on Esty and on Facebook. 

Hope that you enjoyed this review and until next time lovelies!

In the Pursuit of Fabulous: Review of Glamour Doll Eyes

   *Gift*

Hello Lovelies!
    Welcome back!  Today I am doing a review on another lovely indie company, Glamour Doll Eyes. Vee , the owner, posted in the indie group that I frequent that she was offering up blogger review packs for her products so naturally I jumped at the chance. She was kind enough to allow me to choose the five colors that I wanted and after a super quick email they were on their way to me.  They arrived in record time and like a little kid on her birthday I tore into the package to check out the goodies that arrived!

Fiji Mermaid 

   Fiji Mermaid is described as "this greenish blue tells the story of a commonly used sideshow act. The Fiji Mermaid is alive and real with green shimmer undertones, reminiscent of scales."

The first color I was immediately drawn to was Fiji Mermaid cause honestly if you stick mermaid on the end of anything you INSTANTLY have my attention but when you take a look at it you will instantly know why I had to have it.

Tattooed

Tattooed is described as a " bright blue mixed with a gorgeous shimmery purple."

   I have recently been on a blue kick lately with my makeup so I was drawn to Tattooed immediately as well. I was intrigued by the description of it being a  "unque blend of matte and shimmer" which made me think of bright bold color with a hint of sparkle.

Blue Ribbon

Blue Ribbon is described as a great medium to deep royal blue color. At first this may look like a  matte color but it's more sheen when it's on."

  Like I mentioned, I am on a blue kick and I don't think that I currently can get enough of them and it seems that in my collection only had either light or dark blues and I was missing a lot of nice medium tones. The name of the color fits perfectly since it makes me picture a big blue ribbon that the best apple pie has won in the fair.

Undead

Undead is described as "a black with red undertones/ sheen, however, some have said that is has a maroonish color to it."

Just like how if you stick the word mermaid on the end of the color you instantly have my attention the same goes for undead/monster/zombie references. I am a huge horror fan and being a goth mommy I really can't have enough colors that are what I would consider part of the vamp color scheme.

S & M is described as a "dark purple (nearly black) with blue and green sheen & silver sparkle"

  S & M caught my eye since I can really never have enough purple in my collection. It is a gorgeous dark purple with  hints of blue, green and silver sparkles. It makes me think of concord grapes with a touch of sparkle.

Taylor

Taylor is described as a "rich red with medium sheen that rubs down to an intense, almost metallic pink"

   When you add the word "metallic" to any description you instantly have my attention. I would have to say that is this more of a metallic red than metallic pink but either way it is simply a gorgeous color.

  I dunno if you are like me, while product pictures are great, I also want to see swatches and looks where the product was used. So your wish is my command....

And of course I always like to see how the product is used in looks... So here are some looks done with the colors (and there are also some other GDE shadows used in one look but the reviewed shadows are marked with an *)

Done with Sword Swallower (GDE), Fiji Mermaid* (GDE), Blue Ribbon * (GDE), 

Done with Disco White (GDE), Taylor* (GDE), Undead* (GDE), S&M * (GDE), Blue Ribbon* (GDE), and Tattooed* (GDE) 

Now finally on to the ratings..

Color/ Pigmentation 9.8 out of 10 bats
  These shadows not only have amazing color and pigmentation but their staying power is incredible. They are vibrant, applied well, blended easily and lasted all day.

Affordability 9.5 out of 10 bats
    I would have to say that Glamour Doll Eyes has excellent pricing as well on their products. Prices start at $1.25 for sample baggies with .5 grams of product. Sample Jars, which is the size that I was sent for this review, are listed at $2.50 for 1 gram of product in a 5 gram jar (which is the average size jar for most indie companies) and finally the Full Size products are $6.00 and are broken down into two options: sifter and no sifter. Sifters have 1.5-2 grams in a 5 gram jar and no sifters have 2-2.5 grams in a 5 gram jar. So you are getting a decent amount of product for the price and GDE often has sales where you can snatch up full size jars for a steal.

Shipping/ Turn Around Time 10 out of 10 bats
   The shipping on this blogger package was fast, while I was waiting for it to arrive GDE had an Easter Sale which I couldn't pass up on. I placed the order early Sunday morning and my packaged was shipped out on Monday. I am impressed when turn around time for an indie company is less than two weeks but shipped out in a day? That is AMAZING.

Customer Service 9.8 out of 10 bats
  As I mentioned earlier, the shipping time was simply incredible. I was super lucky to catch the fact that I had ordered a duplicate shadow by accident on my Easter purchase so I messaged Vee immediately asking if I could switch out the duplicate for a different color. ( I list the larger collection of my shadows by company on a spreadsheet to prevent this and after that incident I have created one for GDE) She didn't ever bat an eye and was super sweet about the whole thing and shipping the correct color and the rest of my order off the next day was incredible.

Overall 9.8 out of 10 bats
  I am extremely impressed with Glamour Doll Eyes. Not only is the product fantastic with color and pigmentation and the price is extremely fair, but the shipping and turn around time are just out of this world! As I mentioned earlier when I placed an order only to have it shipped out the very next day. Color me impressed. And the customer service can't be beat since Vee was super sweet and understanding when I asked if she could switch out a color that I accidentally ordered a duplicate of. Needless to say, I will be placing another order with Glamour Doll  Eyes in the future and I highly recommend them as well.




Until next time Lovelies!
