Character Transformation Look: Angelina Jolie



Hellou everyone. 
I'm so sorry I've been away. I would get into detail about what I've been doing but it would take too long and quite frankly, it'll be a waste of a post. xD So as I was dealing with internet troubles (Oops, I spoiled it. Now you know EVERYTHING. GAH! Haha!) Anywho, as I was saying. As I was dealing with the lack of the interwebs, I decided to use the time wisely and knock some looks down. I have a load of photos to post, so bare with my lack of HAHA's and witty comebacks, I'm just one person...damn it. xD 

Anywho, as an amateur makeup fondler I thought I'd do the one look (Besides Marilyn Monroe) that is quite done with every inspiring makeup artist....and that is ANGELINA JOLIE! 

PLEASE NOTE:
I am Hannabal Marie, NOT Angelina Jolie...therefore, I do know that I'm no way near as close as she is with her face...what I've done, I've done so with makeup. I distorted my face with contouring powder as best as I possibly could. If I don't look like her, by any means necessary, then that's because I am NOT her. Understand and look further with the eyes and knowledge that I am just a walking work of art. :) 

Thank you!



 Okay, Here we go:

Angelina Jolie


Before I show my look, here is the list of products I used:
(All products are from the drugstore: ELF, Maybellene, Loreal...The works.)

Eyes:

>White/Light Brown/Dark Brown/Copper colored eyeshadow(s)
>Black/Brown/Cream pencil liner
>Black liquid eyeliner

LIPS:

>Dark Brown/Taupe Lip colored Pencil(s)
>Pink eyeshadow
>White cream shadow for highlights

FACE:

>I contoured my face with a darker shade than my own skin color. Highlighted the main points: apples of the cheeks, bridge of nose, chin and forehead. I then set everything with a translucent powder.

The contours are key for this look. The expressions are also important. Here is the finished product:





For the record, I might just make a few more AJ looks, so if you see a new AJ look in the future...please don't be alarmed. Ha! 

Thanks for reading.

Review: Homemade Pressed White Eyeshadow (+ DIY)

Hellou Ladies And Gents, Sorry For Not Posting In So Long. 
I Have Come To A Sudden Stop In Doing Makeup Posts (Not Because I Want To, But Because I HAVE Too)
You See, The Other Day My Camrea Broke And With Money Being The Main Source Of Me Not Just Rushing To A Store And Getting A New One. .. I Must Stop With The Character Looks And Such.  

I Was Thinking Of Purchasing A Low Quality One At Kmart But They Are All SOOOO VERY EXPENSIVE. . .Even For A Cheapy One. . .Not Worth The Crappy Quality Photos, Tbh!

Eh, So Unless I Sell A Kidney Or Leg And Make Up Enough Money In A Single Day To Purchase A, At The Very Least, Semi Good Quality Camrea. . .I Shall Have To Put A Stop On Makeup Looks For A While.

BUT With That Being Said, I Went Ahead And Put Together A Little Review/DIY Post For You Guys Today. My MP3 Has A Camrea On It That Takes Rather Disgusting Low Grade And Fuzzy Photos, Sooo I Thought I Might As Well Use It For SOMETHING. I Might Not Be Able To Do Full Face Looks But At Least I Can Do Some Updating Photos And Small Reviews And Such In The Mean Time. Again I Apologize For The Ugliness And Shittiness That Is My Crap Of A Camrea But It's The Best I Can Do For Now!

ANYWHO, 
I Found A Article On The Interwebs About Making Your Own Pressed White Eyeshadow The Other Day. I Use A LOT Of White And Black In My Makeup And I Thought This Would Help Me Save An Arm And A Leg In Makeup Bills. It's Fairly Easy And Quite Simple But I Still Wanted To Share It With You All! (Including A Review And Swatches)

(Note: I Am Not Being Paid For Mentioning Any Company In This Post! Just Wanted To Share A Project I Did With You Guys! Also Understand That Everyone Has Different Skin. . .So What One Person Finds Highly Pigmented Might Be Sheer To Another.)

I'm Going To Show You How To Create Your Own:
PRESSED WHITE EYESHADOW FROM SCRATCH!

Bella Glam'Amour


Hello Ladies And Gents,
Today I Have A Look That Was Created By The Talented Miss Roseshock. I Only Wanted To Recreate It Using ELF Products And Whatever I Had Around The House. She's Been And Always Will Be The Main Inspiration Behind My Love For Dramatic Things. Aside From THAT, This Look She Create NEEDED A "Origin". . .A Unique Story Behind It. So Here Is Where I Came In:

 I Call It "Bella Glam'Amour" Simply Because Of What Both The Words Define. . .Bella= Beautiful, And Glam'amour= Glamour. . .but that's self explanatory! xD 


Many Women Strive For Beauty, It's In Our Nature. . .Thus Being, Makeup Is A Source That Us Women Find As A Way To Help Make Us Feel "Beautiful" (Hence The Word "BELLA")
On This Journey To Create This "Beauty" I Simply Come To The Realization That No Matter What I Do, I Will Always Find A Flaw In Myself. . .Thus Being, The Pink Tear Trails Running Down My Cheeks! 
But Its In These Small Flaws That True Beauty Is Formed. . .Which Slightly Contradicts Myself In The End. . .But We All Make Minor Mistakes Every Now And Again, Right? These "Flaws" Or "Beautiful Mistakes" Are What Makes Us All Unique And Different. . .And Beautiful And Glamorous! (Hence "Glam'Amour") 


The Products I Used:
-Brown Eye Liner For Brows
-Liquid Black Eyeliner
-Black/Pink/White/Green/Purple Eye Shadow
-Deep Burgundy Lipstick And A Maroon LipGloss!
-Brown Contouring Powder And White Ivory Pressed Powder
-Ivory Cream Foundation
-And Of Course, (This Is A Must), Primer!!!!!


Now That THAT Is Out Of The Way, On To The Look:




A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness.

"Purple Poison Potion"

Purple Poison Potion Makeup Look
(I Do Not Own This Picture, It Belongs To Greenspoon Via Deviant Art)

Here Is My Makeup Look Inspired By The Color PURPLE. . .I Was In The Mood To Rock My Black Lipstick And Thus Being Felt That ALL BLACK Would Be Too "Normal" For Me And Quite Boring So I Decided To Add A Pop Of Color...And What Better Color In All The Rainbow Then PURPLE?!?!?!

The Products I Used:
-Wet & Wild Black Lipstick
-Purple/Black/White Eyeshadow From ELF
-Liquid Eyeliner
-Black Eye Pencil For My "Vampira" Brows! (hehe)
So That's It, Now Onto The Look:

 Belladonna, n.: In Italian a beautiful lady; in English a deadly poison. A striking example of the essential identity of the two tongues.

 “Never take the antidote before the poison”

 
Laughter is poison to fear.


“I just wanted them to die," said Poison. "They didn't have to make such a drama about it.”


And There You Have It, My Purple Poison Potion Makeup Design. . .Nothing To Fancy, Yet Still Vivid In Detail And Beautiful. . .If I Do Say So Myself!

Thanks For Reading And Viewing, Please Do Come Back!
