Cosplay: Kamishiro Rize (Tokyo Ghoul)

Oof, it's been a while since I posted anything here, hasn't it? Sorry, sorry, it's been a bit hectic. Anyway, I went to an anime convention with a good friend, so I had to cosplay, of course!

I did eyes and lips for this look. Again, the weather made me really averse to doing a full face. I did the ghoul eyes with makeup, because I don't feel like shelling out a bunch of money for the sclera contacts. But I like it better this way, anyway, because this way I can easily do the transformation moments, which are always creepy-cool! So here's me as Kamishiro Rize from Tokyo Ghoul!

I'm finally done with undergrad! That comes with both the positives of a lighter workload and hopefully getting a job in my field, but also means leaving behind dear friends. So this was a look I did for my last blowout party with some of the greatest people I've met here in these last 5 years. The sketch-style eyeliner wasn't originally intended, I just sort of improvised it, but I think I like it.         Products Used: Smashbox 24 Hour Photo Finish Shadow Primer Avon Glimmerstick Eye Liner in Blackest Black Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencils in Milk, Black Bean Sugarpill Loose Eyeshadows in Junebug, Lumi (inner corner highlight) Sugarpill Cold Chemistry palette: Subterranean, Soot & Stars, Elemental Chaos Nyx Epic Ink Liner in Black Essence Kajal Pencil in Love Me Lavender Rimmel Volume Colourist mascara in Extreme Black

This started out from a desire to add a little color to a black backdrop, and then the moment the Electric palette was in my hands again, inspiration just took over. And I love  the result!     Products Used: Smashbox 24 Hour Photo Finish Shadow Primer Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencils in Milk, Black Bean Urban Decay Electric palette: Thrash (upper lid liner), Gonzo (center), Chaos (framing), Savage (lower lid inner corner), Jilted (lower lid outer corner) L'Oreal Lineur Intense liquid eyeliner in Black Nyx Epic Ink Liner in Black (corrections) Maybelline The Colossal Big Shot Volum' Express mascara (black) Hard Candy Fierce Effects Lipstick in Twisted Metal
