The Penguin Make-Up Challenge 3 !

I am so sad it's already the last challenge!! It was so fun creating these different make-up looks, because I've never done more than apply some liquid eye-liner and mascara and that's it :)) So thanks Kaki, Mimi and Alexis for coming up with this great challenge!! :D

So the last challenge was to use only white & color and at first I didn't knew what to do, but then I woke up this morning and I had an idea! :D 
I love the ocean, I love Walt Disney's Arielle and therefore all kind of mermaids. So I decided to do a mermaid inspired look! 

I wish I had some gold eye shadow, that's the only thing that's missing here :P 

Products I used for this look:
Eyes & Eyebrows
Catrice Eye Shadow Base
Essence Eye Shadow 01 Chill Out (white shimmer)
Essence Eye Shadow 13 Rapanui (mint shade)
P2 Eye Shadow 060 Bombastic Blue
P2 Eye Pencil 020 Cool Alaska (white)
Catrice Eye Pencil 080 Lucy In the Skies (eyebrows)
Essence Eye Pencil 02 I'm a Marine Girl (50's Girls LE)
Maybelline Jade Volume Mascara in Navy Blue
False Eye Lashes from Fing'rs

Face
Essence Pure Teint Mousse Make-Up 01 Beige
+ all the eye shadows from above! ;)

Lips
Catrice Eye Pencil 080 Lucy In The Skies
Essence XXXL Shine Lipgloss 13 Rock On! (purple shimmer)

This was incredibly fun to create and I wore it for almost 5 hours (because I wanted to show it to my mom :D) and it all stayed in place and looked just like in the beginning! 

I had to do something crazy for the last challenge, because I did some pretty "normal" looks for the other 2 ones, right? :P 
I hope you like it!! Make sure to check out all the other talented ladies! ;)

The Penguin Make-Up Challenge 2 !

Hey! :)

The second week in the Penguin Make-Up Challenge is already here! Let's see what today's challenge is:

Ever since I saw the second challenge, I knew I wanted to use turquoise in my make-up. I saw a lot of turquoise-purple combinations on pinterest and decided to try it myself ;) 

I wish I had a brighter purple-shade in my eye shadow collection, cause it would look 10 times better in combintion with that bright turquoise, don't you think ? Btw...that turquoise color is 10 times brighter in real life! It's gorgeous!!
(Please excuse the messy hair ...and the messy application of my false eye lashes ^^)

Here's what I used (eyes only!): 
Catrice Eye Shadow Base
Catrice Eye Pencil 130 Bright Violet
Catrice Eye Pencil 080 Lucy In the Skies
P2 Eye Shadow 042
P2 Eye Shadow 060 Bombastic Blue
Essence Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner 
Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara
Fing'rs False Eye Lashes

Now tell me, what are your favorite eye shadow colors? :)

The Penguin Make-Up Challenge Day 1 !

Hey there, beautiful people!

As I announced yesterday, today starts another challenge that I'm super excited about, because it's a MAKE-UP challenge... oh yes! Finally something else on my blog :D I thought this would be a great opportunity to get into make-up a bit more and see what you guys think about it :)
So let's start!

This is the challenge banner:

As you can see, the challenge was created by 3 very talented and nice ladies:
 Kaki, Alexis and Mimi!
The first challenge is to use only black and white! Not so hard for me, because you can create some great smokey-eyes with black and that's what I did ;) 
WARNING! Picture Spam ahead! :D

And here is a close-up:

For this look I used (eye-makeup only!):
Catrice Eye Shadow Base
P2 Intensive Khol Eyeliner 020 Cool Alaska
Essence Kajal Pencil 01 Black
Essence Quattro Eyeshadow 07 Over the Taupe (white shade)
Essence Eyeshadow in 53 Pop Eye
Essence Liquid Eyeliner Waterproof in black
P2 Limitless False Eye Lashes

And one last pic :) 

After I finished the look (it took me forever!) I twittered that "..I look like a stripper, but I kinda like it" :D I really do, I love it! But my question to you is:

Would you wear this eye makeup even during the day, or just for a night out? Or is it just too much for you? 
Please be honest, I would love to know :D

Just btw ... I adore my camera! It makes such beautiful pictures! Thanks again mom :*

Check out the other ladies, who are participating in this challenge :)
