Valentine's Series: Vampy Valentine (Featuring Glamourdoll Eyes)

     This is a darker look using mostly Glamourdoll pigments. This one was probably my favorite of the series because it's not something I wear often, though I'm a fan of darker colors.  I've also been really into revisiting purples lately, which was my original favorite eye color years ago. While I was referring to the "vamp" fashion look, I unintentionally ended up using the Twi Shadows from Glamourdoll Eyes...what a coincidence!  Take note that is is also a very glittery look, as all but one of the pigments contain sparkle.

     I started off by priming my entire eye area, and then applied Skin of a Killer (now discontinued) onto my brow bone and inner corner. I then placed Premonition (now in the permanent line!) lightly onto my lid and all over my crease and outer "v." I also applied Premonition onto my lower lash line with an angled brush. Next, I took Shiro's Day of Reckoning and pat it into the outer "v." I blended it into Premonition with my brush.  Finally, I applied Mannequin from the Halo collection onto my entire lid area.  Since this is a more dramatic look, I traced my entire eye area with retractable liner, including the inner corners of my eyes.  For the upper lash area, I did a cat eye look with the liner. I finished with  mascara, and concealer.

    For my lip, I used N.Y.C. Ultra Moist Lip Wear in Mahogony, which is a deep, rich berry red.(Since I tend to look for either Wet n' Wild or N.Y.C. at the stores and often tend to find only one or the other, or if you have a preference, Wet n' Wild. has a color that appeared identical to this one in Cherrybomb.  I chose the N.Y.C. color since it cost less. I honestly expected a cheap taste when I applied this onto my lips, but was so surprised to find that it was a pleasant berry flavor.  The application was so-so, but it was a very dark color, and I expected it to be a little messy. After applying the lip color, I traced it with concealer on the outer lip. 

     Since I was using so many cooler-toned colors, especially the lipstick, I knew it would wash my face out. To help add warmth, I used Sparkler from Glamourdoll Eyes as a blush on the apples of my cheeks.

    Since this is a flirty look, I chose one of the largest lash sets I have and put those on as a final touch.
