Lady Unicorn

May 31st, 2019 by Karen 26 Comments


GIRL. I haven’t worn big lashes in how long? But it’s just like riding a bike!

I’m also wearing a lot of glitter in this lady unicorn look, I know. 🦄

I was inspired by unicorns because my daughter is obsessed with them at the moment, and, let’s face it, so am I.

Oh, and body glitter. I’m wearing it too because WHY NOT? FYI, body glitter has come a loooooong way since I wore it back in the day. This one from Urban Decay comes in a tube, and you kinda just put it anywhere — on your face, in your hair, on your arms, on your neck, your legs.

And seriously, it does not come off! My goodness, I remember the old stuff lasting about 2.5 seconds in my clubbing days, so props to the sparkly scientists who finally discovered a way to get glitter to stick to yo’ body.

  • Eyes: Urban Decay After Dark Palette, Urban Decay 24/7 Pencils (Roxy, Electric Empire), MAC 75 Lashes, MAC Graphblack liner, MAC Princess Jasmine Palette (from the Aladdin collection), Urban Decay Glitter Liner in Disco
  • Face: MAC Studio Fix in NC42 mixed with Pinklite Strobe Cream, NARS Summer Lights palette (bronzer and highlighter), Urban decay Heavy Metal Glitter Gel in Saturday Stardust
  • Lips: MAC Honey Love Lipstick, Hourglass Prose Lip Gloss



What do you suppose lady unicorns eat, by the way? Because I’m thinking about eating a spinach salad. LOL.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. TGIF!

      Hi Barb!

      Honey Love is one of their mattes. It’s like a pale beige pink on me, which is why I like to pop a slightly darker pink gloss on top. If you get it let me know! Would love to see it on you.

    It’s a great look… but the eternal problem of large-particle glitter is always that when light’s not hitting it just right you look like you’ve been peppered. LOOKIN’ AT YOU, URBAN DECAY/COLOURPOP/GLOSSIER PLAY.

    Wow, Wow, WOW, Karen! You look fantastic like this. Bold colours suit you so well, and the shorter wavy hair compliments the edgy look.

    You look AMAZEBALLS! OMG on those lashes. GAH! I wish mine looked like that every. single. day. What a great look and I’m sure Connor loves it! Lady Unicorns totally eat spinach salad. It’s like their favorite thing. 🙂

    I hope you all have a great weekend!!! <3

    I guess Lady Unicorns eat cupcakes with rainbow sprinkles or something like that.

    We used to go to the roller rink COVERED in glitter back in the day. I still love it. My favorite is Elektra Cosmetics Bolt Balm!

    There’s actually a store here called Unicorn Feed and Supply – Connor Claire would love it. It’s got lots of unicorn and mermaid paraphernalia, rainbows, glitter, etc. I got mermaid scale tattoos there for my mermaid act last summer.

    I love the look! I’m going to a wedding tomorrow that supposed to be like a surrealist ball theme and I haven’t decided exactly what to do for makeup yet. I have a floral dress, lots of butterflies for my hair, a fascinator I may or may not use… I’m thinking teal winged liner (will match some of the flowers on my dress), glitter of course, lots of mascara and maybe some lash trios, something light on the lips since I’ll be eating. Also Pride is next week and I’m probably helping with a friend’s show… so many excuses for glitter.

    That is such a gorgeous eye look. You look stunning in bright colors. Love the lashes, too.
    Unicorns are in the equine family so I would say they love grass or other greens like spinach, dandelion greens, chard and kale. Of course if they anything like Lucy, they also like carrots, apples, watermelon, candy canes and other mints and best of all Red Vines.
    Hope you have a great weekend.

    this is one of your most gorgeous looks Karen! I love how you can create colorful looks that look somehow wearable and fashionable so I feel like I just MIGHT be able to pull this off without looking like a complete crazy lady lol.

    GORGEOUS!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
