Dark Fairy 🧚

The things I do for fun, before I had told you guys that for me to makeup is my way of de-stressing, it is like I was back when I was a little girl and my only concern was just drawing, I am now an adult and with many responsibilities but I take my time to do some things that I want.

In fact I was thinking about putting on makeup more often, lately I have been making shapes on my face and I really like it, it is beyond a simple shadow in the eyes to look pretty.

I particularly like things a little scary, of course I also like the cute and sweet things, let's say that I am in both worlds but I have always had a certain inclination towards darkness and this time I wanted to represent. Hmmm, a dark fairy, although in my representation I lacked some wings to complement, but let's see how I put this makeup together.

How I did?

Certainly the first thing I did was apply a base to my face to work as if my face were a canvas and I started adding a black eyeshadow all over the eyelid and took it to the area above reaching my eyebrows

Once we have the eyes with black shadow ready, I proceeded to put on top a little blue shadow, I wanted the blue shadow to look quite dark and with a little shine because I am a fairy, so the shadow that I applied had sparkles.

And so was all my process to put makeup on my eyes, easy enough right? Now comes the creative part, which is to make it really look like a dark fairy, details and details, because I really didn't know what was going to come out of this, I didn't have a clear idea of ​​what exactly I was going to achieve so I just left my hands free and then I was fixing a little and giving it more shape.

Then I wanted to add something darker and I started to draw a few tears because in a way I wanted to look a little scary, I confess that I was quite excited and I was calmly putting makeup on my face, I added black and then I added a little blue supposedly to highlight.

And the last thing I did after all this was paint my lips a little and there it was ready, of course I also tried to comb my hair a bit because I had disheveled hair.

And this is how my first design looked with tears, I spent minutes looking at myself and there was something I did not like, I do not know, I had a feeling that something was not right, I only have this photo because I do not like how the others were looking.

And since I was not liking the photos ... "I have to do something" and well, I thought I think the tears are not working as I had seen it in my head, maybe it was a bad idea and I just proceeded to remove the tears from my face with a makeup remover towel.
 

After this I had to fix everything that I had erased and again I applied a little base and tried to seal a little so that everything looked uniform again, and once I did this something inside me felt more satisfied with the result.

And this is the result of the makeup, I wanted to edit some photos to make it look much better so I only edited the eyes and the background leaving it totally dark.

Clearly my favorite photo was the one I used for the cover but interestingly enough it became my favorite photo after I changed my eyes and edited the background, let's see a before and after this edition.
 

P.S. After having written my whole post, I reminded myself that I also took some snaps, mostly I take snaps but to show it to my friends, I find it quite funny to share with them what I am doing, here you can see that I really did not have the background nor the edited eyes.

I hope you liked my post, it really relaxes me to do this kind of thing and I realize that I probably have a creative side because I mostly say to myself that I am not as creative as I would like to be.
