Gothic circus

Hello everybody! :)

It seems like the hot and sunny days of early summer makes me long for darkness. Not that I mind the nice weather. I do like to stroll around at the evenings when the sun has almost descended. But my makeup looks are as dark and gothic as ever. :)

This look is inspired by an awesome picture that I found on the internet. Since I'm not too fond of posting other peoples pictures on my blog (due to copyright reasons and stuff like that) I will give you the link:

Isn't that look awesome? I mean, the makeup, the outfit, her hair and everything is just great! :) It's hard not to get inspired! (Especially since she's a purple-head, just like me... :P)

So here is my interpretation of this look:

I love this look! :D I don't know about the pictures though. I've said it before but when the light changes outside I have to change the settings on my camera and right now I'm having problems with that. As a result I get pictures that looks quite strange. The colors I can fix afterwards, but the eyeshadow doesn't look as blended as it does irl and that's a problem that is yet to be solved. I don't know if it has to do with contrast, saturation or something else, but I would really, really like to have the same smooth gradients as it actually is. Any suggestions?

The doll-like Emilie Autum-style mouth is great to combine the eye makeup with. The eye makeup is also doll-like, rounded to its shape and with white eyeliner on the inner rim to open up the eye and make them larger.

I wish that purple would be my natural eye color! ;)
