When I pretend like I can use makeups

It's been awhile hasn't it?
If you've read any of my earlier posts, you will know that I'm not a huge makeup fan.  There's the toxic and environmental issues, not to mention the body image and fightin' inner feminist issues that rage around in my brain telling me that it's not the stuff for me.  
That being said, I am not quite so opposed to makeup in the artistic or flamboyant sense...
So naturally there comes a time when someone has a big, flashy palette of all the makeup colors imaginable, and I've got a event, and nothing to lose!
(minus the fact that I have not much idea what I'm doing when it comes to makeup)
In the end it turns into a color-fest on my face.
And apparently piercing alien-eyed stares into cameras.
Isn't it convenient that my under-eyes naturally match the purple applied on top?
Although you can't really tell in these rather dark, late-night photos, I managed to get four colors on my eyes in one go! I've got to admit that even after four hours of swing dancing they are looking pretty good.

On the finger-front I recently bedecked myself in a cosmic creation proclaiming my deep appreciation for 
the glorious majesty that is Star Trek: the original series.
 I can't help but mention that I somehow managed to draw this on my right thumb without it looking like I had commissioned an infant as an artist.  Non-dominant hand nail painting...it's an adventure! 

So there you have it - the cosmetic creations of the month!
Hopefully I managed not to look like too much like a rainbow ralphed on my my eyelids.  
I had fun regardless!
