IT'S SHAMELESS CAMWHORING TIME!!!! I just finished writing a let out post about my pathetic ex. Listened to some music, watched some videos. Then I suddenly felt like trying on the gothic lollita make up I've always been interested in. Here's the video tutorial by Michelle Phan, she's awesome!!! :
Oh God, maybe I shouldn't have posted her video on my blog, this way everyone will be comparing me with her. I guess I'll just make some points clear :
1. It's an impulse photoshoot. I didn't prepare the materials yet (didn't buy enough fake lashes, brown eye shadow & gel eyeliner)
2. It was my first attempt so it didn't turn out as nice as I'd wanted it to be (and I messed up my lips)
3. Michelle Phan's got parallel eyelids while mine's tapered eyelids. So it was hard for me to figure out how to draw the eyeliner and stick the fake lashes.
OK on with the pictures :
Warning : HUNDREDS of shameless camwhore pics (but I swear they're pretty awesome! :D)
I didn't have a Gothic Lollita cosplay so just put on any clothing that looks gothic lollita-ish
To be honest I think I did a pretty good job :D
Yeah I know, my ribbon's length are not the same. That's because I ran out of ribbons. I'll buy a new role of ribbons someday.
I'll replace my shoe lace with a long black ribbon too
Weird face in this pic :/

Tell me what you think about this style and these photos!
You would have thought that the hardest part was the make up. WRONG! The make up was actually quite easy, the hard part was the hair. I had to spend like half an hour to get my hair the way I want. And the ribbons are super hard to tie!
Then when the time comes for me to remove my make up, it was horror. No it wasn't hard to remove the make up, but the fake lashes are nightmares! The glue I bought's a cheap fake lashes glue from Daiso. And I found out that it's best not to apply too much of this cheap glue on the fake lashes, 'cause they're like super glue! They practically tear my skin! I actually teared up and shed two drops of tears after experiencing the most pain I've ever endured in my life. At first I didn't understand why it feels hot when I put on the fake lashes. Now I know, it's a sign of warning that it's gonna tear my skin out if I don't peel it out right away and apply less glue. Word of advice? Don't have to buy expensive brand names but don't buy the cheap ones either, otherwise it'll be hell. Seriously that's gonna create wrinkles :(
