Through the Eyes of Veracidad: Let Them Eat Cake

Yo peeps! It's been a while, but as I start to unwind from my difficult week, it seemed to be the perfect opportunuty to head to my local hookah bar and pop out a blog or two. This one is gonna be about the MakeUp Bee/Lime Crime contest I entered. With the release of their newest D'Antoinette collection, Lime Crime decided to host a contest. They wanted whimsical looks based upon the life and style of Marie Antoinette. I was really excited about this contest, especially since I had played Marie Antoinette in a class project. I had it made until I was "beheaded" during our reenactment of the French Revolution.

After researching her more carefully and looking at tons of painting of her, I decided to go with a wild child modern day look. I had a lot of fun with this and hope you guys enjoy it too. I didn't take any pictures during application, but I took tons of picture afterward for everyone to see. I call this look 'Cake Eater', although it is not believed that she ever told anyone "Let them eat cake."

Here's my official entry pic:

I figured I would go with an extremely girly color scheme: pink, white, and silver. Fortunately the white wasn't too much of a stark contrast against my skin, I guess I'm getting better at my blending, YAY! :)

Products Used (most of them):
Sugarpill shadows in Dollipop, Tako, Love+, and (accidentally) Bulletproof.
Wet N Wild palette in Spoiled Brat
Mac pigment in Fuchsia

I also did my nails for this and thought they looked awesome, which is why I made sure to include a pic of them. Here are some others as well...
