Today should be the last day to attend the giveaway but since I'm off until Saturday evening I thought one more day won't hurt so you have time until 1st April (that is tomorrow) 23:59 to attend the giveaway. I will choose the winner randomly on both giveaways on the evening of 2nd April.
If you haven't yet then check out the rules and prizes HERE.
Also I'd like if you'd answer the poll on the right side. Thank you to everyone who has already done it! It's appreciated :)

Magica De Spell -tutorial
Here's tutorial for my today's look of Magica De Spell.
I of course forgot to take picture of just primed eyes and before going to pics I used Lumene Eyeshadow Base as a primer, put some MAC Painterly paint pot on top of it (you can use just this if you don't have too oily lids) and then I used Gosh Love That Champagne eyeshadow stick to make eyeshadows something to stick to and make the round style with it.
And after that you get to put on the shadows...
1. I used The Body Shop Mineral eyeshadow brush to put on Hi-Fi Cosmetics' Things That Cannot Speak. Leave strip bare on the middle of the lid.
2. Dab on some Ephmeral Violet from Aromaleigh's Les Papillons collection with same brush to the middle of the lid (other side or clean the brush).
3. Blend in the two colours and add Things That Cannot Speak if needed to darken the corners.
4. Add matte white eyeshadow around the purple.
5. Add Butterfly Kisses from Aromaleigh's Les Papillons collection on top of the matte white e/s.Then make a black line around the purple with matte black eyeshadow (I used Sleek) and thin angled brush.
6. For brows I used mix of black eyeshadow (Sleek) and some old grey-brown The Body Shop e/s.
7. Line your eyes with gel liner (I used Inglot 77 with MAC 212 brush). Just a straight line that's thicker on the outer corner.
8. Add some small false lashes to outer corner.
9. Add mascara.
For face I mixed light foundation with white foundation and used white powder on top of that. For cheeks I used MUA blusher in Shade 2 (shimmery pink). For lips I used Max Factor's Orange Shine lipstick.
And voilà you're done!

LOTD ~ Magica De Spell
Even if I'm home ill - stomach not playing nice - I thought I should do a look I promised on my blog's FB page yesterday and that is - as title says - inspired by Magica De Spell.
I also did a photo tutorial for this, really easy look to do if you would want to dress as her on Halloween or whenever.
But here are looks of the finished face. Oops, quite many pics!
Products used coming up with the tutorial later today.

LOTD ~ Royal Gold
I should start making different style of eye makeups again. Got stuck to this shape, happens to me all the time - if I find something I like I will recreate that over and over again before I break the cycle.
Only used my Inglot eyeshadows for this and purple Sleek eyeliner.
I've been called - after dying my hair black - Magica De Spell of our department so just for that I might do a make up inspired by her tomorrow.

LOTD ~ Superwoman's Evil Twin
Ok fine, not so evil. More like younger sister :P
I used MAC Superwoman collection palette in Valiant for this look.
First picture is more like to show how much I change look with make up on (compared to the one with no make up after I dyed my hair few posts back).
Anyone else bought anything from the MAC Superwoman collection? Did you like it?
I only bought Valian palette since nothing else really interested in me yet I still wanted something from the collection (just for packaging) :D

NOTD ~ Burgundy
My today's nails sort of matched my LOTD but since I didn't take pics of them together I thought I would do a separate post for them.
I got this colour few weeks ago with rest of my Oriflame order. It's Oriflame Pure Colour Nail Polish in Burgundy. I'm sorry that there are bubbles on nails but I kinda did these too fast and didn't let first layer dry properly.
I also don't have any top coat so they've worn from ends already - did my nails yesterday evening. Love the colour tho.

Bye Bye Blondie - Welcome to Black No 1!
So yeah I got bored of my hair colour AGAIN. I'm so easily bored. I managed to be blonde for about 6 months. Longer than I thought. Didn't get white hair like I wanted but my hair started to be in so bad shape I thought re-dying to something more healthy colour would be better for my hair.
So this is what I did...
I used Stargazer Violet and Garnier Nutrisse in nro 1/Liquorice which should be black but we'll see how fast it fades to dark brown. I would've wanted to dye with Schwarzkopf Live but the shop had sold out on black. Not like I can't re-dye when needed :)

LOTD ~ Vernal Equinox
Well vernal equinox came and went but this I still thought of naming this look after it. Even if now it feels like spring has taken a step back and winter's still lurking around. I really hope the ice would melt from roads so I could at least walk without having to fear I will fall.
But enough of rambling about winter and ice.
I thought I could list what I used for this look just in case someone's interested.
Eyes:
Lumene Eyeshadow Base
Gosh Love That Champagne eyeshadow stick [all over moving lid]
Hi-Fi Cosmetics Slime&Snails (Labyrinth Collection) [on top of the stick]
Hi-Fi Cosmetics Mornings of Gold (Labyrinth Collection) [on the inner corners of lid]
Inglot matte white e/s [browbone]
MAC lightest shade from Valiant palette (Wonderwoman Collection) [on top of matte white]
Sleek Storm palette - beige and brown [mixed together and added to crease, blended upwards]
Sleek Storm palette - black [on top of beige and brown on crease, not blended too much]
Inglot gel liner
Urban Decay Flipside pencil and e/s [lower waterline]
Girls Aloud by Eylure lashes in Nicola
Face:
Smashbox primer
Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation
Gosh Translucent loose powder
Inglot bronzer in 80

Mschic Skunkmiracle highlighter
Lips:
Maybelline Watershine lipstick in Juicy Bubblegum
Hi-Fi Cosmetics Spotlight lip glaze in Cold As Ice
Damn that's a lot of stuff on my face. Didn't seem as much when I just put it on :D
