Nothing to Disclose
Hello Lovelies!
I had planned to have some swatches for you this weekend, but I ended up failing miserably. I fell asleep when I had planned to swatch on both nights, and was unable to correctly capture the one polish that I did swatch. I'll be re-swatching that one this week, but for now....let's talk what's coming up here at KLK!
First of all, since tomorrow is July 1, let's talk about Google Reader. Google Reader is NOT THE SAME AS GFC. GFC is not going away yet. But since alot of us use some sort of feed to keep up with each other, you'll need another option. You can still follow me via GFC, but you can also follow using Blog Lovin'. Just click below!
Follow KLK on Blog Lovin' here :Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Now that we have that covered...
I have a surprise coming up this week for all of you awesome lovelies! I won't reveal what it is yet, but it involves 3 blogs, 3 FB pages, and a challenge/contest (there is an awesome prize involved!). I'm super excited about it, and I can't wait to tell you all about it!
And last but not least, I have some really killer Indie Brands coming your way this week. Keep an eye out for Luscious Potion, Frankenstine polish, Fandom Cosmetics, Love Angeline, and Shimmer Polish!
Can you guess what the surprise is?
Thanks for stopping by and Happy polishing!

Birthstones: Pearl
This is very, very late but I haven't had time to do this look until now, when June is drawing to an end.
In real life this look was way more shimmery than it looks here. I wanted to create a sort of marine, ethereal look with shimmer, glitter (that hardly showed up at all on the pictures...) and pearls.
The white dots are drawn with Illmasqua's Scribe, which is beyond awesome in every way! :) I will make a special post about my recent Illamasqua haul during this upcoming week.
Shimmer and pearls. Elegant or tacky? Or maybe both? :)
Warm, orangey pink lips and blush matches the eyemakeup perfectly!

The Vintage (or Tacky) Iron Man
One of the Youtube gurus that has inspired me most throughout the years is Cora from Vintageortacky. She's funny and extremely talented which makes it delightful to watch her videos! :)
Recently she posted this tutorial on an Iron Man look and I totally fell in love with it. Plus, I do own many of the products she uses in the video so recreating this look was a must for me. ;)
I did decide to put an extra element on this look, that would make it more me and add some more craziness to it (as if that is needed :P...); hence the rhinestones along the lower lash line.
Honestly, I have no idea why but red eyeshadow always look un-blended and as if I've sloppily painted it on in some ancient drawing program (remember Paint anyone?) or something. -___- It helps to turn down the saturation a bit but I still can't capture the smooth blending that actually existed there in real life. So frustrating!
Last but not least I would love to thank you all for the wonderful comments you've sent me on my past few posts! I have read them all but haven't been able to find time to respond to everyone of them yet so please don't feel offended if you're awaiting a response! As always I really appreciate that you actually take your time reading my posts, commenting and subscribing! It means a lot to me and makes blogging so much more worth it. :D
I sincerely hope that you have had a lovely summer so far (or winter if you live on the Southern hemisphere)! :)
