Can something be both black and colorful in the same time? (Damn, that title gave it away...) Oil slicks are! :)
The look of today is inspired by a look that I found on bowsandcurtseys.com that I immediately fell in love with and it's Ronnie's infamous oil slick look. Wow... Just WOW! It's so beautiful. I knew that I just had to try this look some time and now I've done it. :) Mine is not remotely as pretty as Ronnie's look but it will do, I guess... :P
Unlike Ronnie, I didn't have a metallic black base at hand so I would have to do with regular gel liner. I think a metallic base would have increased the oil-slick-ness of the look though. One important thing when it comes to this look is to only use shimmery eyeshadows because matte ones will definitely lack the capacity to imitate an oil slick.
The colors in this pic is way better than those in the first one since
On the lips I chose to wear only a clear gloss. I rarely use lipgloss but I think it looks great combined with this eye makeup. :) As you can see I got my septum piercing again. Yay! :D It's still a bit skew though...

Someone other than me who thinks it's wonderful to wear makeup that is both dark and colorful at the same time? :) I have to try this look on the lips as well!
oh wow stunning!
SvaraRaderaThank you so much Michelle!
RaderaI seriously like yours better. Hers is awesome, but your colors are more up my alley i guess.
SvaraRaderaThank you dear! ^_^
RaderaHers is extremely beautiful, but yours is a much more accurate representation of an oil slick!
SvaraRaderaWords fail to express how utterly gorgeous you and your work is.
Oh, thank you so much! <3 I'm very flattered!
RaderaI liked your better. You have more defined colours and this is how an oil slick looked like I think :) I must try it sometime.
SvaraRaderaThank you! ^_^ It was a very fun look to create so I definitely think you should try it on. And Ronnie has a tutorial for it on Youtube as well. :3
RaderaI always love to see artists reinterpret looks by other people because everyone has their own unique spin on it. I definitely see your style in this look by Ronnie. Very cool to see your take on it.
SvaraRaderaIt is fun to see different people create their own versions of the same look, indeed! :) Did you see the one I did inspired by one of your looks? :3 --> http://madamnoire.blogspot.se/2012/09/burnt-absinthe.html
RaderaI love this make up. Looks just perfect. I had no idea that M.A.C. has changed their policy. I'm very disappointed.
SvaraRaderaAs a vegan I always appreciate when people running make-up blogs/websites consider ethical aspects of their work.
Thank you! :) I didn't know either until very recently that M.A.C. has started animal-testing their products. :S
Raderadet här är sååå fiiint :D kanske vill imitera det nån gång om jag får!
