Tutorial: Sailor Uranus Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup!

I wanted to do this tutorial earlier because Haruka's one of my favourites, but unfortunately, I accidentally erased the pictures from my computer and had to go searching for it in my external hard drive. >.<

I didn't want to use fake lashes for this look, because it just feels weird adding fluttery lashes to Haruka. Plus, a bottom heavy look makes me feel badass. I went to work with this and felt badass the whole day, so I really need to channel Haruka more often. I always thought Haruka is so freaking hot. Michiru is was the girl I wanted to be with, but Haruka is the girl I wish I could be....maybe because I have non-existent driving skills (don't tell my husband I finally admit my driving's crap, because making sure you're always right totally makes a healthy marriage...). I'm using Urban Decay's eyeliner in Chaos, Make Up Store's Pollution, and Blanche Neige's Seashells.

Yellow lips because Haruka don't care! Isn't Limnit's Between the lines gorgeous??

Tutorial: Sailor Saturn Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup!

Ok! So it's Sailor Saturn/Hotaru time! I was a bit of an emo teenager, so I like Hotaru when she was all mysterious, emo and possibly evil. So here's the look I came up with, and it looks super dramatic, but I promise it's so very wearable! Makes your eyes look huge too!

Here's the tutorial! I'm using Wet n Wild's studio eyeshadow palette in Quartz Center! Lashes are Esqido's Big City Lights!

So here's the full face! I just had a facial that involves extraction, so my face is a bit of a mess XD

Some people tell me they want to get the double eyelid surgery because their eyes look like "2 black holes" when they close their eyes. Stare, stare into the abyss....

Tutorial: Sailor Mars Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup!

Next up is Rei! ! I just love her sass. Rei's portrayed as the typical Japanese beauty,and I have to admit I got the inspiration of this look from traditional Maiko makeup. The maikos got it right...this look is so flattering on Asian eyes! I'm using My Pretty Zombie's mNg no. 2 and Ojo De Gato, and Nyx's Jumbo Eye pencil in Milk!

Tutorial: Sailor Jupiter Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup! (a.k.a the Lazy Ombré Liner)

Makoto's turn! I liked how tough she is, but at the same time, I was also annoyed by how lovesick she gets. Come on, Makoto! You're way better than that! If he's not into you, who cares? You're gorgeous, tough, and an amazing cook. I'd date you!

So this is my tutorial for the Sailor Jupiter inspired look, a.k.a., the Lazy Ombre Liner, which is still my most popular tutorial ever. This time, I created a YouTube tutorial too!

Tutorial: Sailor Venus Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup!

Ok...I screwed up and forgot to upload my tutorials on my blog before I deleted the pics off my phone. So now I have to skip to the tutorial for the Haruka and Rei inspired looks, and go straight to the Minako inspired look. My bad. >.<

So here's the pictorial! I'm using My Pretty Zombie's Bear & Scurvy!

I know I promised with would be wearable, but I couldn't resist adding a swirly helix liner at the end...

Here are the full face! Lips is Kat Von D's Bauhaus with MPZ's Bear dotted in the center!

Tutorial: Sailor Pluto Inspired Wearable Eye Makeup!

This is my tutorial for the Setsuna inspired look! This cut crease tutorial is definitely more challenging, and may take some practice!

1. Apply primer, then draw a wing-shaped line with an eye pencil where you want the crease to be. For monolids, I suggest a small crease that looks more like a natural Asian crease. Apply translucent powder above this line so blending's easier later.

2. Blend a purple eyeshadow above the line, smudging it out.

3. With a pencil brush, blend a darker purple eyeshadow into where the line was. 

4. Grab a concealer and use it to draw a wing shape underneath all the eyeshadow.

5. Apply yellow eyeshadow to 2/3rds of this bottom blank space.

6. Apply brown eyeshadow to the remaining and blend it into the yellow

7. Line it any way you want, and clean up the bottom using a cotton pad soaked in eye make up remover.

8. Line the outer 2/3rds of your lower lashline with purple eyeshadow

9. Use mascara/falsies and that's it!
