MizzWorthy Illamasqua Competition entry (Video & Description)

It dawned on me that "The looks you've always wanted to try, but never had a reason or an excuse to... Until Now!" meant that once and for all I had to transform myself into the image I had been transfixed with for so long. It may not be as dramatic or as weird and wacky as some entries, but it's just that little bit extra than I'd be comfortable to wear out; just that smidge over the line... just enough over it to know it would provoke looks that spoke of, "hmm, she's overdone it today". But yet I yearned to be like those Dior girls: with bold green eyeshadow, stark white face, pink cheeks and dark blood red lips. And I tried, so thanks MizzWorthy for giving me the perfect occasion, finally!

  5. Oh what a wonderful thing to say!! Thanks! My skin's gone really good ever since I started using Murad blemish Kit, which has an amazing face wash that is just a miracle! I've been getting loads of compliments lately, I must re-buy it haha. (Mind you, a ton of makeup always helps...!) xx

  7. That's an amazingly kind thing to say, thanks!!

    Yes that Murad kit has been a godsend to me, I would really highly recommend it.

    Just sneaked a peak at your entry, I'm upset to see such stiff competition!! ;) I might do another look, as this was so much fun. To be honest, I wish I could wear extreme catwalk makeup all the time! Shame it's 'not done'.
