Would You Be My Valentine?

 Would you be my Valentine
If I was a world away?
(The Get Up Kids "Valentine")

Ever since I saw the promo pictures for Illamasqua's "Throb" collection I was in love with the look & I thought Valentine's day would be perfect for doing my own take of this look:
(Unfortunately the lighting conditions weren't the best, so some of the pictures don't have the best quality...)







Oh, a gift? For me? I wonder what it is!

 
It's a heart!


I have your heart inside of my hands
Will I play it to the beat?! 






eyes: MAC "Blanc Type"  all over lid, "Wedge" in crease & on outer lid. "Blacktrack" fluidline & "Fairylite" pigment mixed w/ mixing medium to line upper lashline.

cheeks: NARS "Exhibit A" (Shoutout to lovely Sunfish for sending it to me!), NARS "Albatross" as highlighter

lips: Illamasqua "Sangers"
A while ago My_private_Jet did a post about Cupid nails on her blog & I liked it so much that I decided to do something similar. So here comes my Valentine's day mani:
I used Illamasqua "Load" as a base & I painted the hearts with Illamasqua "Throb".

My boyfriend was such a sweetheart & gave me the following things (together with some chocolate truffles but I already ate those up :-D) as a Valentine's gift:





 I wish everyone an awesome Valentine's day - have fun :-)

  49. Hey just a short note here to thank you for your long and sincere comment. I read it from my email and will approve the comment later. From the way you write, I could see you read my words and I love it whenever people read my words and not just scroll through my pictures. =)

    About the following, sure! Why not? Your blog is also a tad different from the other make up blogs too. Very edgey! I’ll hit the follow button later after work. Would love to see a new follower too!

  53. Sorry for commenting on these so late... I think you pulled this off so well. That Illamasqua ad is one of the coolest, if not the best, I have seen in some time. They are so edgy and have a great creative team. I want all the polishes from this collection, especially Load!
