Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath
I hate you. I hate myself. I hate everyone. Somebody is going to die.
Ah. The sin of wrath.
Uncontrollable rage. Anger of such greatness that it leads to violence and destructiveness.
"Love of justice perverted to revenge and spite" - Dante.
I had one thought in mind: Seeing red. When anger reaches a level of almost-madness.
Without further explanation, here's what I did.
I did sort of a mask, covered the eyes and temples completely. Color scheme is red and black. The colors of burning destruction and pain.
Details: The waterline is red, showing how utterly full of rage the person is, and the color is escaping out of the body through the lower lashes.
We have a very defined shape, no softness here. And the flared out lashes are there to make it more feminine. Didn't want to look like the devil....
Took some time to get up, but here it is. Hope you liked it. ^^
Until next sin ;)

Seven Deadly Sins: Gluttony
A person suffering from a thirst for life, trying to satisfy an infinite longing with finite things.
Gluttony is overeating. Eating more than required. Overconsumption of food and drinks to the point of waste. (If you've read Catching Fire, think Victory tour party in the Capitol) Only concentrating on the needs of the body, ignoring the consequences of endless voracity.
This is fairly appropriate since all I've done this winter break is eat.
To translate into modern language, gluttony is the reason to and the nemesis of anyone who is overweight or has a drinking problem. Anyone who can't control how much, when, how often or what they eat.
ANYwho, on to the look. I thought; foody colors, actual food and looking like I am gluttony personified.
The main lid color being orange, I took it all the way up to the brow to emphasize the excessiveness of the sin. There's some dark brown in the crease and a lot under the eye. Something a bit deviant are the sprinkles I glued to the lashes. I mean, why not? ^^
On the other eye I actually put melted chocolate in the outer corner and let it run down. As if I am so full that there isn't room for any more and it has to find a way out. Same goes with the corner of my mouth. And the lips are just luscious, aren't they :3
A lot of blush and bronser to make my cheeks look edible. Yes, I glued marshmallows and crushed Marianne to my temple and forehead. That's just what I do, all right?
Until next sin

Seven Deadly Sins: Greed
Oh it's been a while since I've done a deadly sin. I guess I've just been a good girl. hah nope not me. I've just been really busy with school etc. Enough excuses, this is greed!
Greed is one of the sins with a deadly desire. In this case the desire to possess an excess of wealth and valuable objects. You have no intentions of making anything of your possessions, you just need to know they're yours. And that you own more than others. It's funny how this applies to almost everyone nowadays. Except nuns...
This is the one that's been the biggest bitch to me int the past. Not anymore though.
Until next sin!
Ps. I didn't dye my entire head orange, just the front with a super permanent dye. The rest of the hair is basically my natural color but shinier.
This is the one that's been the biggest bitch to me int the past. Not anymore though.
Originally I was going to paint my entire face gold, as if I had been touched by King Midas... Didn't work though. Just made me look extremely sweaty. So I went for my second option: the two faces of greed. You have your polished, pretty face, only showing a bit of the glam you own. And the "real you", reflecting the thirst for money you really have.
I ended up only liking the "polished" side of my face. So that's what I'm showing you now! :)
| I photoshopped the shit out of my eyes to make them look like gold. |
Everything is shimmery or straight on glitter, resembling the life of the greedy. The green element underneath the eye is supposed to represent money (bills, you know). And I couldn't not add the lashes and the rhinestones. I mean, if you're going for glam you gotta go all the way.
You can kind of see that half of my face is in fact golden, but just think of that as the dark, secret identity of a greedy person.

Sugar Skull
Day of the Dead, Día de los Muertos, All Souls day, call it whatever you want. I had to at least attempt to do a sugar skull around this time of the year.
They are so pretty and always very personal and unique.
I think mine turned out pretty good considering I don't do masks that often :]
Yeeees I used the same white lenses to add a bit of hollowness to the eyes.
Looking back though, I wish would have added a few more decorations. But hey, maybe next time.
The lips are my favorite part ^^
Until later sugarbutts!

Seven Deadly Sins: Lust
Here are a few really good descriptions of lust.
"Lust or Lechery is the intense desire of the body. It is usually thought of as excessive sexual wants, however the word was originally a general term for desire. Therefore Lust could involve the intense desire of money, fame or power as well"
I had the sexy part in mind when creating this look. ^^ Lust is easily confused with love. In love you want whats best for them, in lust you want what feels best for you. But how is lust a deadly sin, you may wonder? Well, if you think about it, this is how a lot of relationships end. In someone giving in to the temptation of lust and cheating. When only thinking about their own wants and not other's needs.
When I think of "lust" I think passion, sweat and fire (hot, burning blood...).
And someone whispering "I want you right now."
The main part being the desire of the blood. Therefore the colors of lust for me, are pink and dark red.
The main thing to keep in mind, is to keep everything soft yet strong, smoky but not too dark.
Dark eyebrows are easier to flirt with, so if your eyebrows are invisible like mine, feel free to fill them in with a darker color. False lashes are a must. You are trying to seduce someone here, you have to go all the way if you want to get some. ;)
For the rest of the face, in addition to the diffused, sultry eyes, I did pink lips and a lot of pink blush to give the face a bit of a glow.
So um, I have the house to myself tonight...
;]
I love the filters of a webcam. Although I feel like a facebook slut/attention whore posting this picture...
Until next sin...
^^
