It's pretty! I don't know if it's the camera, but it looks like you could re-powder your nose because it looks a little red. :)

Thanks guys! Yeah I noticed that when I took the pic so put on a bit more coverage, its amazing what the camera see's that the eyes don't!

Love the eyebrows and eyeshadow. This type of shadow look is a perfect example of how sometimes it's better to not do a lot of blending. I mentioned it in another post and no one seemed to get it. eyes and lips I think you nailed it in terms of a modernized goth with a glam touch, but I think the blush is too much for goth and also too peachy. I think a deep plum blush that doesn't extend so far in would look better.

Thanks so much guys, really appreciate the advice a plum blush would actually have been awesome now you mention it! Will definitely put that to use next time!

Nt a fan of the lashes,it appears it has white stuff on top.

Yeah the lashes are quite dramatic, they have glitter all over the top of them, but you're right, they're not for everyone!

True, they're not for everyone, but they bring some dramatic glam to the goth look which to me sort of cinches the look and brings in an element that is not thought of as "goth", but totally works. Goth is NEVER going to be for the masses, and that is a big part of why people go goth. I would go one step further with the glitter aspect and go over the lip with a dark purple/black glitter. That adds a whole other finish, plus it brings in another element that very current makeup-obsessed girls who are off the fringe are doing.

Love the eyes and lip. I like how dramatic the lashes are but think they would look better if the glitter was a different color (though it does give a nice contrast with how dark the eye shadow is). I love the extended blush look though I think the color should be darker/cooler.

Thanks so much Todd, I've picked up some great tips to keep in mind for next time, I really appreciate it!

I agree with Todd - nice example of minimal blending actually working in favour of the look.

Ok glitter I couldn't figured out wht it was on top but I like the lashes itself.
