Black As a Moonless Night

There are probably only a few of you who recognizes the quote from the title. "Black as a moonless night" is how Agent Cooper likes his coffee, and with that said, you can probably conclude that this is the third look in my Twin Peaks series. :)

Yeah, yeah, I know; this look turned out quite a lot like my Engel look but what the hell... I like looks like this one and I could do at least twenty more of them with different variations. :)

Since I wanted this look to be black - really, really black - I used first Black bean (NYX) as a base and then, where I want it to be even blacker, filled in smaller portions with Illamasqua's Sophie. This way, you get the blackest possible base to rest your eyeshadows on.

To blend the black into the white with a smooth gradient I used Inglot #339 which is my favorite shade of grey (no pun intended...).

I know some of you will want to see a full face version of this look, but I didn't make one due to my irritated eye (that I will leave alone until it's completely healed). I'm sorry! :(

Anyways, I hope you liked the look! :) Thanks for stopping by and hope you'll have a lovely day!

You might already have seen the sneak peak of this look on my Facebook page but I sure do hope that you will like this post anyway. :)

Last Friday I sat down to play around a bit with my makeup and this was the result!

The contact lenses are kindly provided by Photoshop. ;)

I am not sure where the inspiration for this look came from. A strong aqua-blue color like this does remind me of the blueringed octopus though, but the whole look in general reminds me more of a bird.

It was fun to do something different and I am very happy with the result. :)

*IMPORTANT: Since M.A.C. has decided to start testing their products on animals I can no longer recommend you to buy these products! The reason why I'm still using them is because I bought them before it came to my knowledge that M.A.C. would become a non-cruelty free brand. I won't however buy any new products by them since animals are more important to me than looking good.
