Notoriously Morbid Chaos Reigns

Before the demise of my original beauty blog, I had requested the beauty blogger package from indie brand Notoriously Morbid (now called the artists' package).  If you have a blog, no matter how big or small, you can give them $5.00 and get a little package of stuff to try out.  I ordered it, life got ridiculous (not in a good way), and I never got around to actually using the products in a blog post.  So here we are.

The full size shadow I was sent is called Chaos Reigns.  It's still available on the site.

Label on my actual jar showing ingredients.


Shiny AF
It is described as "eggplant purple with INSANE gold and green sparkle atop a slight red sheen."  I will add it's glittery as heck, and you will definitely want to put this down over a glitter primer!

This effing ring light.  What even?
Seriously, this light.  HOW do you clip a ring light on your phone and not get green rings on your glasses?  Do you just not wear glasses?  Because that's not going to work for me.  Also, how to avoid blindness with this thing shining in your eyeballs? Eh?  Eh?

Temperature edited slightly on this one.  


Stuff on my face:


Photos taken with my crappy phone, under bad lighting, with a cheapo clip-on phone ring light that I don't fully know how to use.  No editing done other than cropping.

**Disclaimer: I'm just sharing my experiences here.  If it helps you, awesome.  If you end up jacking up your expensive makeup, don't come for me.  This is just what worked for me!  It began with the Snow White palette.  Besame's Snow White palette is freaking beautiful but the packaging, while gorgeous, is irritating as heck to use.  You have to hold pages out of the way every time you want to use an eye shadow.  You can use hands or figure out something with a headband or clip but one way or another, you have to hold pages out of your way.  So I wasn't using the palette.  I paid too much money to not use it!  Time to depot, by which I mean remove each individual pan from the original palette and place it in alternative packaging.  This is not about train depots.  Two different words.  Just saying. The Snow White palette was cake to depot.  The glue isn't too sticky and there are gaps between the pans and the ca...

December 2017 Hits, Misses, & Pans

I told myself I'd update more while on break from school but the holidays happened, and everything was chaos.  So here I am with a monthly update, once again.  Just stuff I've been using. Hits: Real Techniques Instapop face brush .  This brush claims to be great for loose powders and I was struggling a little bit with my loose powders.  My brushes kicked up powder for me to inhale, but I kept applying too much when I used a sponge.  I thought I'd try this guy, and I'm glad I did!  I'm not sure what wizardry is at work but you tap it into a loose powder and the powder actually sticks in the bristles.  It doesn't get kicked up in your face when you apply.  It's similar in shape to my Hakuho-do Wedge Sloping Powder Brush , but I think softer, and it works much better with loose powder!  If you like to use loose powder, save your money and go with the Instapop. Urban Decay Troublemaker palette .  Bought this in the Sephora VIB Rouge sal...

Everyday Red Look

Image
When I wake up in the morning and I don't feel like getting dressed, that's when I'm most likely to revert to a default daily look.  In my case, that involves a lot of red.  I usually read for Modern Renaissance, but I got carried away and added some Geek Chic glittery red today too.   I'll mention a couple of products and where they were placed in the body of this post, but a full list of products is also at the end.   I got one eye right.  One.  I'll take it. The best way I managed to capture the glitter is in a blurry picture.  There's barely a speck of it showing in pics that focused properly.  So we're going with it. I now get to spend my day pretending I meant to do that to my inner corner. Fun with smile bags. I used some random pan of whitish shadow as a base shade over primer.  Then blended Realgar into my "crease" and patted Venetian Red all over the lid, blending slightly into Realgar.  Added Love...
