Burnt Absinthe

Hello makeup-lovers and fellow spooks! :) 

The other day I read this blogpost by Meredith Jessica and got so inspired I had to recreate the look. I truly love adding green in (in various different shades) to the inner corners of my eyes and this absinthe green color combined with the dark, burnt brown cat-eye is just gorgeous. Perfectly wearable for goths and "normal" people as well. ;)



I figured I'd use the same burnt brown color on my brows as on my eyes. To achieve this brow look I drew on my brows with a brown eyeliner pencil and then set it with Mocha by Makeup Geek.


The lipstick is Black Dawn by Make Up Store, which I love the color of. The formula of the lipstick however is just hideous. It dries out quickly, bleeds, gets "clumpy" and I just don't like it very much. I have to find a dupe for it...

  1. I'd never think of adding green there, but it looks great. That's why I really love the Lestat look you did; it changes a fairly ordinary look into something that really stands out. ^_^

    1. Thanks! :) Yeah, it's a beautiful shade. It's such a pity that M.A.C. decided to start with animal testing. :(

    1. Tack så mycket! :) Kul att höra att det syns skillnad! :D Jag kollade själv igenom bilder från förra året och såg enorm skillnad så det känns som att man har blivit bättre på det man gör.
