Hey dolls,  Today's post will be a short post of my recent make-up tag with Aqeela who came up with 'Gothic' theme.  A theme that I enjoyed a lot because it's dark, mysterious and most of all time to reveal your darker side.  Overall products used for this look was from Illamasqua - my current brand obsession ^^ Step by step: Eyebrows used Illamasqua Eyeshadow mixed with sealing gel in Angst Illamasqua Gel Eyeliner in Infinity and smudge them, leaving the centre lid as clean as possible Illamasqua Eyeshadow in Melodrama in the centre lid and along the lower lash line Illamasqua Neutral Palette in Wolf to blend the edge; Mascara and eyeliner Close up ^^ Illamasqua Medium Pencil in SOPHIE & Lipstick in Magnetism I have some tan so in order to bring out the 'Goth' feeling, I used foundation 3 shades lighter than my usual by Illamasqua Skinbased No. 3 and contouring using Illamasqua Eyeshadow in Heroine Hope you enjoy them...
