Two New Illamasqua Contests!

Just as you were thinking you couldn't love Illamasqua any more than you already do, I wanted to announce to all of you 2 fantastic contests courtesy of the greatest brand ever to come out of the UK.

The holders of the contests say it best, so have a click on the contest name to be directed to the posts with all the details.

1. Mizzworthy's Heroes and Villains


2. Illamasqua's Nail Art Competition with Sophy Robson

I plan on entering both contests, so we shall see how it goes. Good luck one and all! ;)

Mizz Worthy's Illamasqua Myths and Legends Contest- Entry 2

This is my second entry into the contest, inspired by the Hawaiian snow goddess Poliahu. I tried to go for the frozen look, hopefully it was effective!

Used:
Mac Chromaline in White for face and as eye base
Make Up For Ever Star Powder in 948, 956
Make Up For Ever Eyeshadows in 0, 83, 120
Ardell False Lashes (Glam) with MAC Chromaline in white on top
Cotton swab near brows
Luminess Shimmer Foundation for lips and face

Pretty simple, and very different from my first entry. What do you all think?!

I wish the camera captured the shimmer in this look. I guess we can't win them all!

Mizz Worthy's Illasmasqua Myths and Legends Contest Entry

My inspiration for the Illamasqua contest stemmed from my love and fascination with Ancient Egyptian lore. The Ancient Egyptians represent everything exotic and sexy, and I tried to model this look after both Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile and Isis, the Goddess of Fertility. I made this look very dramatic on purpose, since I was feeling fierce and a bit over the top. I am also contemplating doing a lighter version of this look, but we shall see.

I used:
Make Up For Ever Primer # 7
Mehron Aquacolor in Metallic Gold
Make Up For Ever Flash Color in Gold
Illamasqua Liquid Metal in Solstice

Eyes:
Make Up For Ever Aqua Black Cream Eyeshadow for brows and lid and to line
Smashbox Bionic Mascara
Drugstore Brand Lashes

Lips
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in NSFW

Im not lying when I say that painting my entire face gold without an airbrush was not easy! I am happy with how it turned out though. The above picture is without flash, and unedited. The only thing I did was made the bottom warmer, because my pale neck looked weird.

Here it is with flash. Lets ignore the fact that I couldn't paint my neck, and the fact that the flash reflects off of metallic gold in weird ways, making it look a little off in places. It wasn't in real life, I promise!And there you have it, my entry! Try not to laugh too hard, or run away scared.

Rub a Dub Dub & A Giveaway!

Philosophy is in my tub.

My love affair with Philosophy body washes started over 5 years ago. Looking for a body wash that was gentle enough to use on my eczema prone skin, but still smelled yummy; I came across these lovelies on QVC.

Well let me tell you, they had me at Cinnamon Buns.These body washes are super creamy and moisturizing to my thirsty skin. And did I mention they smell divine? Some food-scented body washes tend to smell sweet ad nauseum, but not these. I have been diligently using these since then, and I have never looked back! At the point I must have tried every scent out there thanks to QVC's auto-delivery program.

In honor of my favorites bodywash ever, and because I love you all so much; I am giving away a full sized brand new Philosophy Body Wash in Red Velvet Cake!

All you have to do is subscribe to my posts via email. Already subscribing? You are already entered! Double your chances by becoming a follower! This contest will run until Thursday April 30th, 8 pm EST.

Good luck and be sure to Check in Friday May 1st to find out if you won!
