Cranberry Smoke

Here comes a very classic fall look, the cranberry smokey eye. Honestly, I've hesitated about posting this look since it's rather boring but nevertheless it is a pretty everyday look that suits goths and non-goths alike. :)

You've heard it before, like a zillion times, but colors like these brings out green eyes. When using a shimmery shadow on my lid I like to blend it with a matte one to create different textures and thus a more interesting look.

A pop of acid green highlight in the inner corner would make the look more playful but this time I wanted to do a more wearable version so I stuck to frosty nude highlight.

You all probably know that I'm going to say that to goth up this look all you have to do is add some black lipstick. ;) That's not what I did, even though it is a great idea. I decided to go monochrome with cranberry lips and blush.

New Blog Layout! :D

As you can tell my blog layout has changed and become a little more deathrock and a lot more awesome! :D A while ago I was contacted by one of my readers, Chloe, from the blog Speaking of Chloe, asking me if I was interested in her designing a new blog layout for me. Of course I said yes!

She made a few layout design for me to choose from and I picked this one, which I think suits my personality and my blog like a glove! :) Isn't it just fabulous? :D

Big thanks to you Chloe for your amazing work! <3

The Penguin Makeup Challenge Part 1: Black and White

Part one of the penguin makeup challenge will be my current everyday makeup look. It is a classic deathrock look with a thick batwing eyeliner. I love wearing this look because it is so me.

With the eyes open the liner looks just like a regular eyeliner...

...but when closing the eyes you can see the batwing! :D

Looking goth for work. I'm so happy that I can wear my piercings at my new job. In fact I can look however I want as long as I dress in black. Now that's my kind of dress code! :)

I hope you liked my look! I'm thinking about doing a tutorial on how to create the batwing eyeliner, how does that sound?

Thanks for reading! :)
