Manic Panic Goth White cream to powder foundation + Kreepsville666 horns!

Decided to try and pick up this blog again. Name change, style change and content change!

So, without further ado, onto the blog post!

Got a pretty little package today, and inside:



First up, the Kreepsville666 horn clips:


Now, these have been popular for a while with all the 'kawaii' street fashion-y type blogs and I had to get myself a pair, 'cause I think they're pretty cute. When I first took them out of the packaging, I thought 'These are so heavy! How do they stay in my hair?!" But, aside from wriggling with my hair as it moves, they stayed pretty well. I have naturally rather thin hair, and I thin it with layers, too, so hair clips are a pain sometimes, but the little grips they have in the base of the horns help a ton with keeping them put. I think, if I were going out for the day/night I would probably use hairspray and/or some bobby pins just to really keep them secure!

Secondly, Manic Panic's Goth White cream to powder foundation:


I have a hard time finding foundations that aren't orange, or turn my face a horrible orange colour. I have pretty pale skin, but it has a very strong yellow undertone, to the point I almost look jaundiced in some lights, so just something to balance out my foundation is greatly appreciated. 
Let me just say, you do not need a lot of this!! I ended up looking like I was wearing Kabuki make up to begin with. It does balance itself out after a while though.


As it first goes on, stark contrast. But it's a lovely and silky feeling though!


Once blended a bit more, it stays sort of this sheeny-white colour. It fades a little and sort of fits in more with your skin tone (or, I think it does!) My hands are a different colour to my face, but you get the idea. 

If you have dry skin like I do, as it's a powder, it will emphasise the dry points on your face, so make sure to apply this with caution! Moisturiser is godsend! And of course, not rubbing too hard helps I find.  I also have very sensitive skin - even perfume free baby wipes and simple face products annoy it - but I felt no discomfort, burning or itching with it on, which is great, because I've had my face practically burned by some english BB cream I bought once.

And now, I leave you with possibly my favourite track from the wonderful David Bowie. British TV has been wonderful today and played lots of Bowie-orientated documentaries and The man who fell to Earth, so I've been singing his music all day. Haha.
