    Valentines (because I got all pretty)

    best. valentines. ever.

  • [evolve]

    [evolve]

    I lived in a rigid world with rigid language. Words like evolve and evolution were almost taboo and never spoken except in reference to something bad (or the theory, which was also bad). The act of evolving was treated with disdain when it was obvious. The word fascinates, resonates with me – it always has.…

  • All dressed up and nowhere to go

    All dressed up and nowhere to go

      Usually I’d actually apply makeup before doing this, but I was (ironically enough) going to lunch (and woke up at 12 something because I could, and I wanted to spend as much time not moving as possible due to muscle strain). Anyway, this is my cute blurry picture. Cardigan: Forever 21 $6 (on sale/clearance),…

    fails

    This blog is not by any means a place for expert advice, at best it’s the general wanderings and musings and evolution of “the process” – my process, a process, some kind of process; inexperienced me attempting to get somewhere and hopefully be better at it. Posts change with moods and whims because my interests…

  • So…

    So…

    I’ve somehow started the habit of going to Forever 21 on a somewhat regular basis and buying cool stuff (because it’s inexpensive, and I’m still building/rebuilding my wardrobe). So I think maybe I’ll do one “attempt of fashion” post a week, in addition to the continuing makeup um…adventures and general geekery. Oh, speaking of –…

  • Week in Review

    Week in Review

    I’ve never felt the need to wear makeup, and only applied it rarely – usually focusing on eyes, because no one kisses my eyelids. I think some of it was because I was given the ability to wear makeup when I was 13 and just never had the desire. It was one of those things…

  • Untitled post 3417

    I’m going to be practicing character makeup this week – so due to spoilers and/or disaster and total failure, I won’t be posting the pictures of them. At least not for a while, so I can actually get it all down. I’ll probably write about things I’ve learned with the application though, so there’ll still…

  • Makeup day 6: purple

    Makeup day 6: purple

    Today’s makeup is purple because I wanted to play with my plum eyeliner. Cream eyeliner is hard to get used to at first – mostly just the brush, but I’m actually better at putting that on than all the other kinds I’ve tried/have – so that’s good news. When I was done with everything I powdered…

  • Makeup: Day 4/5

    Makeup: Day 4/5

    I didn’t do anything on Friday due to my face starting to break out and rebel – today I’m waiting for my elf makeup to arrive and my wanna-be migraine to go away before I do anything that requires a large amount of concentration. The plan however, is to play with a lot of purple…

  • Day 3: Subtlety

    Day 3: Subtlety

    I meant to take the picture earlier (before the gloss wore off) and in front of the greenscreen, but I ate lunch and then the camera died. Browns and blacks – it matches my “I logged out for this?!” shirt that came in from jinx today. ^.^
