When tomorrow comes what's left of me?

 Say hello to my first Alter Ego look!

I found a new idea for a blog series! Altho the "lit series" is not finished yet, I tought I´d do Alter Ego series :P

There are actually three reasons why I purchased some wigs. First: Every girl loves makeovers! Second: My red hair doesn´t always match with the makeup colors (and I want to try different ones!). And thirdly, this "alter ego" boom has gottem me actually pretty exited :3

 My theme here... I was just thinking of "black sunset". So I paired yellow, orange and black together~

 Haha, I haven´t worn false lashes in such a long time, that these were glued so poorly :DD

Lime Crime - Candy Eyed eyeshadow helper ★ Primer
Inglot - Matte 323 ★ All over (yellow)
Inglot - Matte 383 ★ Outer corner, crease (orange)
Sugarpill - Bulletproof ★ Outer corner, crease, brow (black)
Sugarpill - Tako ★ Inner corner (white)
Illamasqua Presicion Ink - Abyss ★ Eyeliner
Inglot - 13 S ★ Lashes
Lips are Lime Crime's Coquette

 ...too much flash.

oh yea - here are the new matte colors from Inglot I talked about. I also ordered a new bigger empty palette.

 I´ll try and do something rad with these later on.

I do think this is my best look yet. I used a loooot of time in doing this make-up, mostly the blending.

So let me know what did you think? I have a few more wigs to go, aka a few more alter egos to come. Anyone have any ideas or wishes? :D

Sorry for beeing so MIA lately... Even tho this blog is "obsessed with vanity", I just haven´t been feeling like it lately.. I´m working a lot and besides that, I hang out with friends or do some workout. I haven´t been feeling "glamorous" lately, so I´ve just had very natural nails, make-up and clothes.. Aka really nothing to show on this blog. I haven´t even had the energy to wash clothes, nevermind actually clean up my apartment. Woah, such a mess. This winter is totally sucking the life out of me. So hopefully I will recover some time at spring when the days are longer and brighter <3

...yes, the outer corner has a darker blue in it. It doesn´t show on the first pic..
 I LLLLLLOVE Inglot! It´s so easy to use their eyeshadows. I got actually 5 new colors. (Again).This time I randomly ordered from their website. Maybe someday I´ll get an inspiration to try something harder with these intense colors.

 ..this is what you get when taking a picture in my home :( The lighting is really terrible. But the blue looks even cooler now :D

*smirk*  
I´m off to bed, good night!

Nail polish rack !

 How long did I wonder where to put my nail polishes... and then my friend actually MADE this nail polish rack for me, for xmas! o_O I cannot say how happy I am! ^^

Opi's...

Inglot... Illamasqua... Color club etc.

I do have intention to post some make up looks, but with this dark period it seems that I just cannot get any 'real' pictures >______> All of the colors change when I try to take pictures. Bleh.

Happy 1-year birthday!

...to my blog! Exactly one year ago I published my first entry. Hmm.. So how did I actually start and why?

I found first interesting blogs in november 2009, but back then I didn´t even think possible to have my own. I had edited some school magazines etc. so I had just a little knowledge of photos and such.

My job contract ended 31.12.2009 so in January I was "free" to do anything I wanted and I kinda tought "well why not". I started sewing again, for the longest of time. My first tought was actually to make more like sewing/knitting blog. But so many things changed during last 12 months! Let´s take a closer look!

January 2011





My first banner was purple! I had black hair and purchased a lot of fabrics... Back then I already was obsessed with nails. I got a night shift job from Itella, so I didn´t stay unemployed for long :D I also got my first MAC product, which was Cyndi Lauper lipstick ~Do notice that the photos have a bad taste and quality :DD I feel almost embarassed.

February



When Inglot shop opened near me, I got my first Inglot nail polishes and a palette from them. I also presented my humble make-up collection in this blog. I was in love with the Pretty Reckless, Digital Daggers and Die so Fluid. Actually there are two totally ridiculous entry's I might even delete. Oh how... embarassing I´ve been :D

March

I tried out my first marble nails! An dyed my hair red. I also started dreaming of a decent camera and visited my folks in Estonia. Still working with Itella. Ah and I also had a side job for 3 weeks, which of course took most of my time, doing two jobs at the same time.

April






I got my first Konad stamping plates and a lot of other accessories for nails :) I also went to see the Devin Townsend and I purchased the Canon Powershot s95, yay!

May





Ahh, the sun started to shine, long winter started to be over! I traveled to Tallinn and found out about Lime Crime and Sugarpill. I celebrated May 1st at Tampere and ordered a LOT of false lashes. And I got my second Inglot palette.

June






In June I had a job interview and got a new job with Pelican Self Storage! I terminated my contract with Itella to end in the beginnig of July. I got my first 4 Lime Crime eyeshadows and a Cold Heart palette from Sugarpill, among with some loose eyeshadows. SUMMER ♥

July








In July I worked for Itella for a week and again I had a side job with that. After both of those I was on a vacation for 3 weeks! I flew to Slovenia and had the time of my life in Metalcamp! Lubljana and Tolming captivated my heart.

I also got my first Lime Crime Lipsticks and the eyeshadow primer, again among with 4 loose eyeshadows. I also got a bunch of Beauty From the Earth eyeshadows. It was really warm, ah how I miss those times. First time I ever tried jet skiing!

August








I started my new job after a looong vacation! I purchased a lot of Alchemy Gothic yewelry, newest Ghost Brigade album, a lot of new polishes and some Illamasqua products. Did my second marble nails :D

September







Only 5 entry's in September! Ohh. I was in Japan :D And turned 21 before that. I started digging purple and magneta hair colors. I purchased some more Lime Crime lipstics when the Lip Noir was published. I played a lot with Sugarpill ~

October








I really started blogging in october. I blogged about the Japan trip and I got my first Lit Cosmetics order, I started the Lit series! I started doing a helluva lotta makeup themed posts. My favorite month so far.

November














Hmm.. I think I did a lot of nails. November has been my most efficient month yet! I got some more Lit glitters :) My first "dress" -picture in AGES. I´m just so crappy in taking photos of me :(

December









I rearranged my shoes :P And there was of course some more Inglot vanity, my fourth palette... Oh and a picture from 2010! How I miss extencions ;_____; But my haircolor is changing all the time (atm), so there is no point in getting extencions right now... In december I hit (so far) the highest view score with that green Sugarpill/Lit Cosmetics look. I also got my first Iron Fist shoes and a new "expencive" makeup foundation. And visited my folks in Estonia once again.

January 2012





So far.. I made a huge FUSS in posting my LIme Crimes Carousel Gloss review... Been hauling a lot of Inglot. Nothing special othervise. I´m so busy with work and this stupid cold and dark weather is so not helping.

Wow. This is actually more like a diary! I´d say that the blog has changed totally from what it was when I started. I think I have more courage and self esteem, to bring you even more bright and beautiful photos :) I´m more determined to do the thing the way I want to.

I will be investing in quality in the future. I don´t think that it´s a suprise that some things I published last year, make me feel stupid. But now when I look back, I´m actually glad that I did publish them, they are/have been a part of me and it´s good to see the change.

Thank you for all of my readers and supporters, you mean the world to me! And I do have a question for you! What would you like to see more in the future? More make-up, clothes, product reviews, more colors, less colors etc. All comments are welcome! I´d also like to hear what did you NOT like in my previous entry's. Thanks!

xoxo
