Taurus the BULL!: Zodiac Collab with Snarky P!


Zombies!

Welcome back to another edition of the zodiac collab with the Snarky Princess. I've been slacking and getting these up a day or even a week late, but better late than never.

I think of Taurus as the strong headed bull. Sexy and hardcore, so that's what I went for.



The Bull

Modality: Fixed
Element: Earth
Ruler: Venus
Season: Spring
2nd Sign of Zodiac

Metal: Copper
Stone: Emerald
Color: Green
Anatomy: Neck, throat

Keywords: persevering, down-to-earth, stable, stubborn, possessive, prosperous, dependable, physical, sensual

Comparison with its symbol, the Bull:


For centuries, the bull has been a symbol of strength, tenacity, virility, and power. Left alone, a bull will happily graze; but if it is bothered, it will charge! Similarly, the Taurus personality is thought to be calm and peaceful, but when their anger is aroused, their temper can be wicked. Taureans are often quite disturbed by sudden changes--they prefer their lives stable and secure.

Taureans are thought to be persevering, strong individuals, who can also be quite "bull-headed". They can be dogged and determined when they have a goal in mind. Taureans are also quite sensual and, often, self-indulgent "beasts".

The glyph for Taurus, quite simply, represents the bull's head and horns.









The Goods:

TSFI all over lid
NYX jumbo pencil in "Milk" blended into lid
Hi-Fi Cosmetics "China Shop Taurus" main lid
Dark marron with sparkle color from the WnW "Lust" palette blended into crease
Light eggshell color from same palette to highlight
Evil Shades "Acolyte" lower lash line
Random liner and mascara

Cheeks:
MAC "Dollymix"

Lips:
Revlon "Raspberry"

An added bonus picture. I inadvertently took a picture of myself looking like a blow up doll. FTW!

What Zombie Thinks.....


ZOMBIES!

Can we please go back to when everyone liked each other and this bullshit wasn't happening? It's a Zombie beg. PLEASE! I can't take it anymore. I want to buy a couple bottles of Tequila and get you all around me and take shots till we can't see straight and stumble down the street like a bunch of undead. We all need it. We all need to take a step back, take a break, and remember WHY some of us blog and WHY some of us sell awesome things to the beauty world.

I've been having some personal things going on and all this drama is too much to take. I want to love everyone cause that's what Scorpios and Zombies do. (FREE LOVE AND BRAINZ BITCHES!) So, don't take that away from me. lol

I will not take sides, but I AM going to hide from this drama until it passes over, but let's please try to make the makeup community fun again! I want to see everyone happy and glittery!

I’m Katt and I love Makeup Zombie, so I am SUPER excited to be doing a guest look for her.  For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Katt, just a simple girl who like many of you fell in love with the bright and beautiful world of makeup. In this look I wanted to use every thing I love about the freedom of creativity I have all over my face. The colors, the shape, liner, and glitter. This look wasn’t really inspired by anything othr then the colors in my Sugarpill pallets. And for those of you wondering where I wore this, this was actually my look for attending a Kid Rock concert, I got some interesting looks. I really hope you like what I’ve done and I’d like to remind you all to be bold, be beautiful, but always be yourself.

For this look I used some of my favorite products:

Sunday FUNDAY! This is dedicated to Robyn...


Happy Sunday Zombies!

I went to Roller Derby with my bestie last night and got just a teeny bit tipsy. I am paying for it today, so I thought I'd do a fun post. One of my online besties Robyn from Stay Beautiful sent me the most awesome care package a week or so ago. She included tons of Barry M samples and...the infamous MUA eyeshadow Shade 9. Anyone who knows me, knows I am a sucker for purple and this shade is SO up my alley. OMFG, I'd make out with Robyn if I could. Or in her terms "snog" her. Wait...that does just mean kiss, right?!

Anyhow, on to the look. (Yes I'm obsessed with pigtails, it's been too hot to have my hair down.)



















The Goods:

TFSI all over lid
NYX jumbo pencil in "Slate" blended into lid
MUA Shade 9 all over main lid and lower lash line
MAC "Blue Flame" from Style Black above and into crease
Eggshell color from WnW "Greed" palette as highlight and to blend
Random liner and mascara

No blush *gasp*

Lips:
Accessorize Diamond Sparkle lip gloss also shade 9 "Diva" which was also sent to me by Robyn!

This color is WICKED!

Quick and Easy LOTD with Altered Ego Cosmetics!


Hi Zombies!

I promised my little kidlets we could go to the dollar store today and pick out one thing each. By the end of the hour long excursion, I was ready to pull my hair out. ALL OF IT. It ended in the littlest armed with a freaking helium balloon cause a guy in the store felt bad for me and roller puppy thing that makes noises and my older two with puzzles. (Those two are great kids. HAHA)

Ok anyway, the point is, I needed to get ready in a hurry, but I wanted to use my new Altered Ego Cosmetics stuff. So I came up with this! I will say, these colors are amazing. Very gorgeous, pigmented, and super easy to work with!






































The Goods:

TFSI all over lid
NYX jumbo pencil in "Milk" blended into lid
Altered Ego "Aura" main lid and to blend the two colors together
Altered Ego "Routine" blended in and above crease
Altered Ego "Beetle" lower lash line
MAC "Shroom" as highlight
Wet N Wild "Deep Blue" Color Icon pencil upper lid
Random lower liner and mascara

Cheeks:
Ulta "Adore" cheek color

Lips:
NYX lip pencil in "Mauve"

Zodiac Collab with Snarky P! Aries!


Hey Zombies!

This was LAST Thursday's Zodiac look. Better late than NEVER, right? This was a fun look. I  wanted to make my hair look like "horns" since Aries are The Ram. I think it came off looking more "cute" than "horn." lol


































The Ram 

Modality: Cardinal
Element: Fire
Ruler: Mars
Season: Spring
1st Sign of Zodiac

Metal: Iron
Stone: Amethyst, Diamond
Color: Red
Anatomy: Head, face.

Keywords: active, initiating, leading, independent, aggressive, impatient, combative, energetic, pioneering, naive, assertive

Comparison with its symbol, the ram:

Aries is symbolized by the ram. The ram has come to represent male fertility, aggression, and courage. A ram's horn is part of a cornucopia, the "horn of plenty", symbolizing abundance. In history, rams were often symbols of leadership. Aries natives are said to be leaders and pioneers.

Rams butt their heads into their enemies; and Aries natives are thought to approach life "head-on". 

The glyph for Aries is a straightforward one -- it depicts the ram's horns. 

Because "Sunrise in Aries" from Hi-Fi Cosmetics is a burnt orange color and the color of Metal is Aries is Iron, I thought I'd incorporate the two.





































See my "horns"?





















The Goods:
UDPP in "Sin" all over lid
NYX jumbo pencil in "Slate" blended into crease
Hi-Fi Cosmetics "Sunrise in Aries" main lid and lower lash line
Hi-Fi Cosmetics "Reaper" above crease and into crease
MAC "Shroom" as highlight

Cheeks:
Evil Shades "Atomic"

Lips:
Beautique lip crayon in "Shimmering Raisin"
Silk Naturals Kisser Slicker in "Swank"

Be sure to check out The Snarky Princess for Amanda's take on Aries! 

Hope you are all having a great Monday!
