Nina Ricci fw 2011

I like this velvet coat, kinda reminds me of a gentlemen night rope or a wizard rope, but there is something appealing about it, I just love clothes made out of velvet.

The makeup look at Nina Ricci show was very beautiful, 

very fresh, natural beauty and beautiful pink lipstick.

Kat von D Day Contest: Winner

After the laptop crash, here is the announcement of KvD Make Up Set Giveaway Winner.
Winner has already been contacted by email and she'll soon receive the package from Germany.
Thank you very much for make this contest possible and my best vibes for next time!

Tattoo Chronicles Contest is still open until 8th April. 

Blue smokey eyes

Now that Kat von D wears blue hair, blue shoes, blue eyeglasses and we know she loves her High Voltage blue mascara by KVD Sephora, eyes were missing, aren't they?

I heart MAC but I can't afford their shadows as much as I would so, I usually but stuff from Maybelline NY. I heart Sephora too however their shadows don't last enough for me, that's why I enjoy Bourjouis and Maybelline much more. Using a primer and your imagination your eyes will look as smokey as Kat von D's.

I was a big fan of ther 4 shadow pack: EyeStudio Quads. By the end of last year the brand lauched Eye Studio Satin Glam Quads, a renewed combination of their previous colours and had to buy the blue palette:)
Blue and grey is one of the best combinations so I was glad they have put it together, Their previous palette was a combination of several tonalities of blue.

You don't need to spend a lot if you can't: Grab your brush, your eyeshadows, a volume mascara and do not forget to wear concealear to light your glance!

Brainstorming

Today: appointment with Sephora. What new products will be added to her brand?

One of the big news she gave while touring in Europe with her book was that Sephora will start selling Kat von D make up "here" by Spring 2011.
I'd love to confirm that other countries are included in the list. Keep coming for further news!

How to do cat eyes?

Because this is the best and most femenine make up of all times and fashions, here I post an old "how to" from a magazine.

Take your eyeliner and lipstick and play!!

New Palettes and news for international fans

Attention to Kat von D make up addicts.

 

Two facts to be in mind:

 

Seen the new palette for next spring, It's gonna be called TRUTH and surprises the box is white, inspired by bones maybe? The design with all these old keys and light colours makes me imagine light colours in the inside, but we'll have to wait few months more to find out!

 

 

Kat is kicking asses to Sephora to bring her make up to Europe and much more countries. I think she'll finally end up convincing managers from Sephora that there is a potencial market outside the States that is anxious to try and buy her products. I hope she finally success!

If I could help to convince them, I'd say that:

 

Kat von D make up brand has

1. the best from MAC = quality + pigmentation 
2. the best from Sephora = price + wellknown
3. the best from Kat von D = rock + authenticity

 

Her next goal: glitter shadows.

Best Kat von D Halloween Costume

Alright gals, I can't be objective here, Melina is my friend and though we've never met, I have a strong faith on her artistry.  You can judge by yourself she looks totally like a Kat von Sweet Skull Doll.

Happy Halloween !!!

For every fan, it ain't a big sacrifice to stand in a line waiting hours to get a sign for their beloved idol.

As fas as I heard, there are many make up gurus disliking the product. However, the world is full of tastes and I am sure you've never been given many presents like this!

Enjoy your time meeting Kat guys!

Children like me because they think I am a cartoon

Friendly, funny and looking like a retro secretary. Kat  von D and Jefree Star were promoting the book, Tattoo Chronicles, yesterday in NYC.

I'm surprised by her look but I like it. One more time, this chick is addicted to her pair of glittery pink Bordello heels. Fucsia as  Jeffre's hair.
Vintage glasses are the final touch to a renewed look for the tattooer. However, these pair of glasses don't let us see her eyes very well in many pictures.

Her attitude, much relaxed and friendly, shows the world that Kat is on! Bravo!

She's wearing her most liked make up. Kat's signature look: red lipstick, pronounced black eyeliner, black eyebrows.

Press asked about the whole Jesse-thing, (the couple is still in love, no Nikki)

More pictures below and even more in this new post!

At last! The KatvonD make up Tutorials!

We' ve been waiting so long! At last, Kat von D shows her make up tips using her own palettes for Sephora in three cool vids as the most famous Youtube gurus.

Cheapest lisptick tip!

Kat von D signature look is red lipstick. But how to get the red that made her lipstick so desired?

This is the result of my fave cheapest mix:

God knows that I'd love to enter to my local Sephora store and try all her make up. When you live in a country without her makeup and you can't afford MAC because you work in a shitty job, there's only one option for you:

Use your imagination

- First, apply  a bit of concealer to make it last longer.
- Then, Sephora Lipstick Maniac 12 Champs Elyses. A creamy reddish chocolate brown.
- Right after, Sephora Lipstiac Maniac Mat 9. A very dark wine red.

The combination of this two lipsticks is an rich dark red Kat von D looking like, I guess.

If you want to make it last even more, apply Sephora nano lip linner right after the concealer and before you apply the lipstick. Depends on what finnish look you like, reddish or darky, apply to the whole mouth: 20 -real red- or 11 - beau bourdeaux -
This will allow you to eat and drink without worrying of your lips :)


I haven't tried Lip Attitude - Glamour by Sephora, but 13 looks so gorgeous!



And how much is it?

9€ each lipstick, lip linner 4€

MAC Cremesheen lisptick "Dare You" + MAC lip linner: freaking much :) around 30€ 

Awesome Book Packaging for Sephora.

Tattoo Chronicles following up for top seller High Voltage Tattoo is soon to be released and Kat von D surprises fans with awesome beauty sets for Sephora.

Instead of a simple box, Kat made a product that looks like a book.
Two different books with make up inside. Is there any better for a beauty lover like this?
By now, only lipstick set is avaliable.

"This is dedicated to those who are self-created, self-reliant, self made, and independent." —Kat Von D

The first beauty book is avaliable now and it's called: Amor Vita.

The book contains six mini Painted Love Lipsticks from nude to dark red:

• Rosary (pale pink)
• Underage Red (pink, brown)
• Cathedral (fatal red)
• Hellbent (velvet red),
• Lolita (light brown)
• Celebutard (mauve pink)

Spend $28 instead of $60!


Second book is called Tattoo Chronicles Palette - Volume 1 ($180 Value- cost $55) Does it mean there is more to come? - I hope so!
Soon is going to be avaliable in stores.

Venusta Impetus in the cover but no colours of Adora collection inside. However Kat included 12 shades, 3 primers (Skin, Stellar, Smoky), 1 pair of false eyelashes and two mini rollons of her last fragances, Saint and Sinner.

If it was avaliable on my country I defenitively would celeb a kind of pre-Christmas with a set like this one.

Shades:

• Tijuana (from Memento mori)
• Taxidermy
• Hollywood
• Peanut (from True Romance - True Love)
• Redemption
• Solitude (from Memento Mori)
• Heartkiller 
• Baudelaire
• Monastary
• Poe Blue
• Nite Owl
• Lemmy

I think others shadows are new or from limited editions..
Best thing of both sets is that they include a giant mirrors!

It seems the book has some pages with Kat's drawings and few texts that make this product a MUST for every fan.

Text in the picture reads:


"This book is dedicated to those who are self- created, self- realised, self -made and independent...
... those who take the artisitc freedom to express themselves though art, music, fashion, make up or whatever creative oultet their heart desires...
.... those who are brave and bold enough to be themselves - even if it means thinking outside the box.

Dedicating this book to you is just a small way of saying "thank you" for inspiring me."

Second page is a poem.






Here you can see more images. Can't wait for reviews of this awesome box!
