Hello community, today after thinking a lot I dared to blog this makeup, this is one of the makeup that I liked the least but despite that sometimes I like to share the failures because not everything can be perfect, there are days when I really want to make up but I have had many problems of insecurity lately, I don't know what happens, but it's like I'm going backwards instead of moving forward, or at least that's how I perceive it, I usually compare myself a lot with other people and that's the worst thing someone can do, with all that weight on top I have done some makeovers and this is a clear example of when things are done with insecurity and discouragement.
Maybe other people don't see it that way, but that's how I feel, it's crazy when your mind plays against you.
For this idea I wanted to do a makeup with a "gothic" touch and at the same time bloody as you can see haha, I think I went overboard with the blood, I hope your comments and that you liked it.
I started as always moisturizing my skin and cleaning it very well, as I wanted to give a different shape to my eyebrows, I applied glue stick in the middle of my eyebrows, I applied 3 layers and stretched the hairs and then sealed it with translucent powder and covered them with concealer, then I mixed some foundation of my skin tone with white body paint to create a pretty pale base, as the style I was looking to get mostly has these super light almost white bases.
Then I started to make up with shadows quite exaggerated, I used brown, orange, red and black shadows, blending them as much as I could. I filled in the water line with white eye pencil and underneath I lined it with black eye pencil, I applied some black gel eyeliner on my eyelids to give more intensity to the black color, I painted my eyebrows with the shape I wanted and from here I stopped taking pictures because I was quite discouraged, however, I will still explain what I did.
I sealed my face with translucent powder and applied mascara, I chose a color for my lips in this case I wanted to paint the upper part with black and below with red, under my eyes I painted a kind of fading hearts using black body paint, I glued false eyelashes and then I started to experiment with fake blood, covering almost half of the face, chest and neck, also applying some splashes of blood directly on the face.
I took very few pictures and I have chosen the ones I hate the least haha, I changed my contact lenses twice using first black ones and then white ones, I think with white it looks at least a little more terrifying.

Siempre es una satisfacción visual ver cada una de tus obras porque lo que más se nota en ellas, es la pasión que le dedicas❤️.Hey mi querida @alexa.art entiendo perfectamente esa sensación de no poder evitar compararnos con otras personas por culpa de nuestras inseguridades, lo que genera un sentimiento de inferioridad muy triste que no nos deja avanzar.
A no bajar los brazos que aún te queda mucho por brillar✨✨.
