New member in the family

Finally I’m in my new home and now I can write often or, at least, I will try it, because I will begin some practices the next days.

Today I want to show you the new member of the family; for now its name is “M” because we don’t know if it is male or female and we need to wait some days to know it.

little raven

It is a raven (Corvus Corax) which has borned in captivity and we have adquired recently. It has less than a month and by now it only sleeps and eats, but some day he will be an intelligent specimen and very big bird. For now, even it is a baby, its weight is near to 800g and about 30 cm from beak to tail.

As soon as it will be growning I will talk you about its state and I’ll try to upload some pictures and videos for you can see itself, in the same way that I’ll do with the rest of the birds which lives with me.

Cosmetics and make-up: last manicure

Black_stiletto_nails

Meanwhile there are people who paint their nails since they are very young, I began some years ago and I don’t paint them often, and that it is the reason why is a big goal for me when I do it.

Although I don’t paint them usually, when I do it I choose dark colors (black, burgundy, red, purple,…) or turquoises and blues, which combine with my current hair color.

Some months ago, I found nail polishes of matte colors and I was searching for a shop which sell them. I saw a lot of “top coat” which gives a matte appearance to nail polish which you are using, but I preferred to buy directly the color which I want to use with the matte version.

Finally I found them in a franchise called “Flormar” and, due to I was in the shop and it is a bit far from my home, I bought three matte nail polishes: one white, one dark red and one black, which was the one that I have used in this occasion.

This time I wanted something extreme and, due to I had my nails longer than usual, I cut them to be pointed, like “stiletto”. I cut and file them to give the shape which I wanted and then I paint with matte black color.

Etsy shop

I’m sorry that I didn’t write during this last month, but I don’t have a good health lately and I didn’t enough force to use the computer.

Today I have returned with news: I have an Etsy shop!

Maybe you can think that my creations are not big things, but they have helped me a lot to improve my health and I have created them with a lot of affection.

To begin I have created some chokers of organza and suede with cameos, crystal beads, satin bows and suede pompoms. All these metal pieces are of bronze colour.

Later I have made some pendants, also with bronze brass cameo, with bronze chains. I have put resin flowers, crystal beads and satin bows.

Also I have created some chokers with clocks and tapes. One of them is black, in the same way that the face watch which it has. The other one is white also it has a watch but even some small chains to embellish it more.
Both watches are authentics, work correctly and are silver colour.

I have put a choker which I have created some time ago and which I have used in a photo session. It is organza ribbon with a wire with some round beads with heart form and I have sewed a felt heart. Everything is in red color and it is possible to adjust it to the neck with a small silver chain.

Finally about collars, I also put a choker which I have created some time ago to use it in an event. It is a black lace tape which I have put some red lace above it and I have sewed a colgant at the middle. That colgant is a silver metal piece with a stone like a black heart.

And the last thing is a corset which I have customized. It was a corset with white brocade and plastic bones.
I have tinted it to give it an older appearance, I have changed the cord for another brown cord and I have added authentic watch pieces and a bronze heart-clock to give it a steampunk style.

Looks: ocasionally grey and black eyes make up

Today I will show you a look which I use sometimes but not all days. I don’t use it all days because I need about 15/20 minutes for dayly make up (totally finished) instead of this one which I need a bit more time.

Occasionally look, closed eyes

In this occasion I will write about eyes make up.

After applied the corrective, make up and powder, I applied white iridescent shadow under eyebrow and the corner of the eye. After I used a mixed of two shadows, one pale grey and another grey near to black to half eye near to the corner of the eye.

To do all this steps I used a shadows trio of Bourjois, Effect Lumiere tone Les argents 46. Nowadays I don’t know if it is still made, but a good substitute would be the Smooky Eyes Trio Eyesshadow tone Grey Dandy, also from Bourjois.

After it I applied a matte shadow of Kryolan of black colour, but I will not put any picture of it because I haven not found any picture and my palette is a bit disaster currently… I used it at the end of the eye, very shaded.

Finally, I used a shadow which I have bought in Sephora of the Cargo brand. I tis a shadow of two steps: one of cream and another of powder. It is possible to use it indenpendently, but if you use them at the same time, it is durable, it does not cracked and has a matte look. The tone which I use is called Katmandu.

I applied the cream part doing a C in the eye, emphasizing the end. With the same shadow, I painted the line of the down eyelash, but without arrive to the eye corner.

After I used the powder past above it and remove the rest which could be falled with a special brush which has been designed for this task.

After it I put the black false eyelash with half feathers. It is sold by Kiko but it is possible to find them cheaper than Kiko searching in Internet (eBay, for example).

If you choose to search in Internet, I advise you that not to use the adhesive which you will find with it, because they are bad and it is not only that maybe it drops at the beginning; it is possible that people can see easily the adhesive and you can lost it after some hours.

I like to use the Duo adhesive of Sephora. There are waterproff, but the product is black and if you don’t have a good technique, I think that it is better the normal one because it is transparent and you will not be in dangerous to do a disaster.

After put the eyelashes, I painted the eye corner and the upper line of the eyelashes with a black pencil of Deborah. it is the one which I have used for most time and it is incredible how it extendedi it and support everything, even tears. It is the extra eyepencil waterproff tone 01.

Later I painted the lower eyelashes with Great Lash of Maybelline. It is not the best product which I have, but it is enough good and cheap, that is the reason why I use it usually.

To finish, I combed eyebrows and made up them with another product of Deborah, the 24 ORE for eyebrows tone 282.

This is the result with open eyes (please don’t take care about my face because I were so tired after a exhausted weekend):

It is possible that you can’t see the contact lenses which I have in the previous photography, but they are from Circle brand and blue colour. In the next photography, which has been taked in other moment, it is possible to see beter the make up (I made up in the same way that this description) and the colour of the contact lenses. The make up is a bit spoiled, because I made up in the morning and the photo was taken at night. Even it it was good.

Last shoppings: clothes and shoes (2013 Autumn)

Hello creatures of night!

Due to health reasons and to move to another house, I have been away from my page, but I think that it is the moment to publish some things which have been accumulate during these last months. To begin, I will publish some entries directly and later I will try to publish each week, at least one.

First, I will talk you about the shoppings which I did in this last Autumn (September, October and November).

I have bought some clothes and some make ups, some of them were bought by Internet and the rest were found in real shops in my country.

In this post I will only comment about the clothes which I have bought recently and I will talk about the rest of the things in another future post.

To begin I should say that I have bought a pair of shoes of Demonia brand (Trump 101 model) which I wanted during a lot of years. I think that they are so easy to combine, and it is possible to use them daily or to go out partying. They don’t have a big heel and they are comfortable (but I have problems when I have used them with tights because my feet slip inside them and I had to put insoles).

I have bought them in www.talamasca.info, where you can find them currently for near to 60€ (about 80$). I have ordered them in the middle of the Summer, because I wanted to use them for the first time with a black dress which I have bought but, even the page said that they are in stock, they didn’t have it and they had to ask for them. I had to wait for them about two months, but I think that it was worth the hassle because the photos are not enough good to say the beautiful that they are.

Also I have bought two pairs of leggins and a sleeve shirt by Internet.

One of the leggings is gray with holes, “zombie” style, and the another one is a tartan leggings. The one which I have used more is the first because, even they are of the same size, the tartan leggings is a bit small for me.

The sleeve shirt has also holes and a “zombie” style, but in white colour. It is longer, that’s the reason why I use it with a belt over it. Usually I wear it with a pink tartan trousers which I have bought in a street market.

These three clothings were bought in Refuse To Be Usual (runnickyrun), which have a shop in Ebay and Etsy (I prefer the second one).

Here you have the link of the shop in Etsy:

During these months I have bought two checked leggings in “Stradivarius”. They were cheap and they are useful to go “normal” but without my style, because I use them with high military boots normally.

These are the links of the leggins in the Stradivarius page, if you like them, go fast because they are on sale:

I purchased some tights and socks in “Calzedonia”. They had a lot of models with arabesques and damask stamped, everything nice.

Remember that now we are on sale.

Finally, I have purchased a jersey in “Tezenis”. It is baggy, with “damaged” zones (holes and ladders), black colour with a white cross in the middle. I like to use it with checked leggings or tartan style and a bomber jacket.
