Green & Blue Smokey Makeup look with Morgana Cryptoria

This look turned out weird. The glitter didn't go on smoothly like it normally does and it looks splotchy and bleh. I think this tube of glitter glue might be drying out or something. Will open a new one and see if there is a difference.
So even though I'm not particularly happy with how the glitter looks, I'm posting this look anyway. I took advantage of the sunlight and used it instead of flash. So this look is much more sparkly in person!

Purple & Green Smokey Makeup Look, Two Tone lips with Morgana Cryptoria

This look was done mainly using Morgana's Halloween Treats collection from 2009. Which I LOVE so much!

Here's the look. I did another duo tone look on my lips using Violet's Kiss and Morgana's Mysterious Veil  patted in the center of the lips. I really like how it turned out.

I'm wearing a Vampire Bat headpiece which is available for sale in my eBay store. :-) I thought it would go well with this look as it has matchy amethyst beads.

Simple Pink Glitter Liner makeup look with Collection 2000

This look was from Friday. I went to lunch with Elizabeth from http://prettybottles.blogspot.com/. I did a simple look as I didn't have time to do much. We had a great time eating nummy sushi and hanging out. She's such a sweet gal and I'm glad I met her. :-)
Oh ya, I made the necklace.
This glitter liner has small and big glitter pieces in it so it doesn't go on as smooth as my liner normally looks. But it's still pretty!
