~maleficent look~

A contest entry again...
this time its gonna be for Sarah's Disney Contest

& i choose a villain...

har har har!!!

I love villains because they give spice to any story/movies. If the villains are boring, then no matter how colorful & pretty the rest of the characters are..it would be pretty dull. I am able to appreciate the leading characters the most if the movie have an interesting villain.

Now Maleficent is one heck of a villain...HA HA HA HA!!!!
its how the way she laughs...its so evil

Ok, on with my entry...

This is my inspiration pic:

Just look at how she arched her brow...a perfect villain! XD
this was taken from Kingdom hearts


So, it was a real challenge changing my angel face (jk..i wish!haha) to this mean looking creature...I refuse to use face paint because i still got some blemishes left after using face paint days ago...i just have to make do with what i have...So ill just be using green shadows.

& while doing so, i looked at my dog on the bed & saw him looking at me while putting the green shadow! haha!

i was laughing so i wasn't able to take a clear pic..sorry...
just look at him! I guess he is thinking that im nuts for putting green on my face!

My hair doesn't even look like Maleficent's...it looked like Lady Tremaine's hair! T_T
it's hard to do it without a hair spray...

so i just have to make do with what i have..lol


I really look so evil-like!

har har har!
if only i can laugh like Maleficent...it'd be perfect!


I'll not leave it at that...i also did a 'wearable' version of it...
I've done a combination of green purple & black since that is maleficent's colors..
So i tried my beat to come up with the ridiculous combination of it...
& i came with this...

I have to use dark red lip color seeing as maleficent have dark red lips!


The last one it was taken with flash..so it looks bright...my cam is washing out the colors, but it looks bright in real life...


Lesson Learned:

• Don't be afraid of coming up with ridiculous color combination..who knows..maybe you would discover a good combination from it...
  

& with that im done with it!
I have to say, this is quite challenging....

might not be the best entry out there, but the important thing is i had fun!

Peking Opera Contest entry

Im done with my contest entry for Chrissy & Gia's Beijing Opera Contest.

As i was doing my research, i found out that the Peking Opera just doesn't use colors according to what they like. Every color have different meanings. I would really love to personalize what i did, but since this one has something to do with a country's culture, i chickened out. hehehe

I choose this look for my entry:


And let me tell you, its not a walk in the park....
I had to practice & practice just to be able to sport the look. The zits on my face are the proof of it. The face paint that i used made me broke out...arrrggghhhh!

but then it was worth it! If only i have some decorations like that to finish my look...but... T_T
I had so much fun while i did this that when it's time to take it off i felt a little sad. v_v

Let me show you the products that i used:

Face Paint Palette
San San Cheek Blusher in 03
Fanny Serrano Gel Liner
Nyx round lipstick in Femme
Ecotools foundation brush
Everyday Minerals Flat top brush
Ecotools 6pc brush set
Color Institute Eyeliner (i dont know the shade since the label was erased)
Pencil Factory lip liner #18
Ever Bilena Eyeliner in black
Everyday Minerals pressed foundation in Fairly Light
Ellana Multi purpose Mineral powder in Ethereal
Make up Masala Eyeshadow pigment in Vishesh

Just like the pic, i just did half of my face. Much as i would like to do my whole face, i can't since i have a couple of angry red zits on my right face. So i just had to do the left part of my face. It's hard for me to paint my brows white....i had to pat paint over & over...ekkkk!!!

It took me more than an hour in applying the paint, topping it with a white foundation, & blending the pink color. If you look closely on the image, i think the whole face is supposed to be pink-ish. But what i did was just applied the pink color mainly on the apple of my cheeks. So that the cheeks would be more prominent. Then i put falsies so to open up my eyes, though i think in real opera you don't have to use falsies.

And this is the final look:Wondering how i actually looked like since i just did half my face? Well,this is it....


I actually this did late midnight....& i just finished it a couple of minutes ago...
the time now here is 12:59 am...i did this i think 10:30pm...then i have to upload it...crop it,etc...


I'll tell you my adventures in putting face paints maybe in my next post... But for now, ill be bidding you'll have a great day! Im off to bed!
