Goldfish Inspired Look

I'm finally entering a contest, I usually think about entering them, but then it takes me ages to get around to finally record it, and by then the contest is usually over. Or I'm just lazy and don't do it. But hey! Lookit, I did it. I actually did a contest. I'm not gonna lie, this one was really fun.

The contest is for sayanythingbrooke, and you're suppose to create a look based on your pet. Now, we all miss my dear lizard Mary Jane who has passed on, but luckily I still have my goldfish whom is the inspiration for this look




So lets get into the products I used and what I did!

• Maybelline Mineral Power in Medium 2
• Maybelline Mineral Power Finishing Veil in Medium
• Sally Hansen Blush in Etheral

Lips

• Vaseline
• Rimmel Lipstick in Crush

Eyes

• HIP Color Rick Cream Crayon in Attentive
  
• Matte Loose Orange Eyeshadow (I used one of the fake MAC ones I have)
• 88 Matte Palette: 9 column to the right, and 3 colors down
• 88 Matte Palette: 9 column to the right, and 5 colors down
• 88 Matte Palette: 1 column to the right, and 4 colors down
• Jane Mineral Gel Eyeliner in Black
• Maybelline Define a Line in Onyx
  
• Lash Perfect Eyelashes in S747S Black

How to accomplish the look

• First thing you're going to want to do is prime your eye with your favorite eyeshadow primer, I used UDPP. After that has dried apply HIP Color Rick Cream Crayon in Attentive all over your lid and just a little bit into your crease.

• Once you've done that, get a flat shader brush and take a loose matte orange eyeshadow and wet your brush with a mixing medium or FIX+. Then apply that all over your lid all the way up to to a little past your crease below your brow bone

• Next take your costal scents palette and use the 88 Matte Palette: 9 column to the right, and 3 colors down and apply that in your crease.

• Then take the 88 Matte Palette: 9 column to the right, and 5 colors down and apply it to the outer two thirds of your lid.

• Next take any matte black and a crease brush an apply it half way into your crease and in your outer V. Next, the most difficult part. BLEND! BLEND! BLEND! I mean guys, BLEEEEND YOUR LITTLE HEARTS OUT.

• Once everything is blended to look good, just take a matte flesh colored brow highlight and place it on your brown bone. After that you're good to line your upper lid and water line, and apply your falsh eyelashes. Then you're all done! A nice pink blush and a goldish nude lip would looke good with this.

I hope you guys like this, and don't forget to wish me luck on the contest! Maybe with some luck, I'll win!



Oh yes, I said I would explain the story to why my fish's name is Francis is dead. I need to preface this with that my father and I have a very interesting and special relationship and I love him very very much.



Now into the story, when i bought my goldfish I initially bought two, and I couldn't think of a name for the two. My dad suggest I name them Patti and Francis. Which are the names of my parents. Well my dad was making fun of me for some reason that I don't remember and I told him that Francis died. But he really hadn't, and my dad was momentairly upset. Once I told him that the fish wasn't dead, it became an ongoing joke that Francis is dead. Which we just decided one day that We would just change his name to Francis Is Dead. Since then, the name has just stuck. Unfortunately Patti DID die, but Francis is dead is still alive an kicking.
