I have spared all my energy for the Halloween fashion show that took place this weekend so now that it's over I am very deprived of inspiration. However, there usually don't go that many days before my inspiration returns so I expect that I will be back with a look for you guys soon. Or maybe a tutorial? :)
Today and tomorrow I will be scavenging the internet for inspiration so we'll see what I will come up with...
Anyway, we will continue with the weekly confessions and I really appreciate all the comments that you guys wrote on the previous posts on this theme. :)
Okay, so what makeup mistake bugs you the most? Overdrawn lips, uneven eyebrows or maybe far too much of a bright color?
When working (read obsessing...) so much about makeup as I do, you are bound to spot a lot of mistakes that other people do in their makeup application. Hopefully you are also very forgiving about these mistakes, since you remember that you were not an expert yourself when you just started out. ;) I don't mind people with uneven eyebrows of eyeliner because those are things that takes a lot of practice to get right. There is however one makeup mistake that is so, so, easy to avoid that I sometimes see and that often bugs me a lot; unblended eyeshadow. :P The blending brush is your friend!
But honestly, you don't even need a blending brush, a finger will make a huge difference as well. Just don't slab the eye-makeup on and leave it like that because it looks unfinished (there are of course looks that are supposed to have sharp lines but there's a big difference...).
I think you can see what I mean... (No, my eyebrows are not back, these are old pictures...)
IMPORTANT: Just because I say that non-blended eyeshadow bugs me it doesn't mean that I have the right to write bad comments on other peoples pictures telling them how ugly their work is (because honestly, it is NOT a big deal) and I hope that you don't do so either, whatever your specific makeup pet peeve is. If you don't like someones art/appearance or whatever, just don't comment at all.
Anyway, I hope I will find some pics from the fashion show to post here soon. :) The models were so cool!
Thank you for reading and I wish all of you a great day! :) See you soon!

Weekly confession: Perfumes
Thank all of you who participated in last weeks Weekly confession! :) I really enjoyed reading your confessions and some of them made me laugh.
This time it is about perfumes. A fragrance may smell heavenly good to one nose but completely awful to another. So, now it's time to confess; what fragrances are terrible vs. wonderful to you?
Personally, I love sweet and heavy perfumes. :) My favorite perfume right now is probably Vanillary by Lush. I LOVE it! :D
As for scents that I really hate the first thing that comes to mind is perfumes that smells of roses. *Urrgh!!* It may sound a bit strange; doesn't everyone love the smell of roses? Well, I don't. The smell of roses gives me headache! :(
So those are my love and hate perfumes, what are yours? :)
I will try and upload another look before Halloween but since we are having a guest from England to stay at our home this week I might not have time. We'll see about that! :)
Thank you for reading and hope to see you soon!

Weekly confession: What is your worst beauty sin?
I've seen this on at least a couple of blogs now and I thought it was a fun idea to adopt it to my blog as well. :) Write a comment in the comments section for this post, telling us about your own beauty sins.
So this weeks question:
What is your worst beauty sin?
It could be anything really; overplucking your brows, too much rouge or a foundation that is far too dark for your skin maybe? Something that you do although you know it's not entirely good.
For me my worst beauty sin is definitely that I often neglect my hair when doing a look. I put so much focus on my makeup (especially the eye makeup) so I don't have time, energy or patience left to spend on my hair. This often leaves me with a very unfinished look - bold makeup combined with a sloppy, slightly tangled mini-pony-tail on my head. Haha, I bet it looks kind of weird some times. :) I'm also kind of lazy when it comes to re-dying my hair, particularly my sideburns that get color-deprived much, much faster than the rest of my purple fluff. So I usually end up with blondish sideburns and purple on the rest of my head. XD

Crazy makeup combined with "lazy" hair.
So, now, let me hear your confessions my dear readers! :)
