I just sent in my first entry for a make-up contest based on album covers and I quite like it even if it is a bit simpler than the other entries. I used Malice Mizers album Merveilles as my cover inspiration and I did a mostly wearable look for it. I say mostly wearable as I left my right eye with the base colors as a totally wearable day or night look and took the left eye a bit further by bringing in a wider shape and some details - still wearable but just a little out of the norm. My only sad face thing is that I didn't apply the brown shade dark enough but on the same note I didn't want to look like I had a big ass bruise around my eye.

Here is the finished look collage - some of the rules were that it had to be submitted in collage format, and feature not only the album cover but also include the hosts name(s) and not have them photoshopped in (hence the writing on my hand). 

Products used:
Cover Girl moisture concealer
Geek Chic powder in Lana
Lime Crime Candy Eyed Primer
ELF silver liquid liner
Lime Crime Uniliner in Quill
Cover Girl Lash Blast Fusion mascara

Eye color:
BFTE in Clara, Last to Know, Cavalier, Avoid the Mistletoe, Emerald City
Mon Ennui in Trinket, Olivine
Lime Crime in Incantation

Lips:
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Triptych
SweetPea & Fay in Nantes

I have another look I would like to do but I may not have time as the contest ends on the 22nd and the look is quite intense - definitely an artistic photo shoot look and NOT an everyday wearable one.
