Inspired Look: LIGYARU's gyaru

It's been a while since the last FOTD or whatever. I was inspired by a western gyaru I saw on YouTube under LIGYARU (click on the name for her blog). Her looks are much more intense with over the top wigs and exaggerated make up and very unlike Ekimura's gyaru style which is very subtle and very pretty. It intrigues me because despite the two different looks, I love them both. I'm drawn to Lady Li's eyes and just had to try it out.

For this FOTD, I'm going to post the end pictures only. The process of doing the eyes were long and very very scary. Even for me.

Well Bunny, here ya go, full faced pictures as requested :D

How it started and how it all ended

I had to erase off my eyebrows and make them appear again but in a different colour. I did this by using my ELF eye primer to cover them up and then dabbed light brown eyeshadow on them. Seeing how it didn't work, I opted to use my lip liner. Since I only have ONE lip liner and it wasn't a suitable colour, I went back to dabbing eye shadow colour.

As much as I loved Lady Li's gyaru look, I just wasn't able to duplicate the exact look. Then again, I never did an exact look of anyone before. This is my interpretation and done mostly to see how it would look on me and at the same time still be me.

Took the pictures near my window, I'm a little glad that it wasn't too hot today and I didn't look completely washed out.

Ah well, was never gyaru looking in the first place. Too damned lazy anyway.

Seriously, you are one of only a few Asians I know that can pull off blond hair. Your alabaster skin just works so well with it. :); July 29, 2011 at 1:44 PM

BLOG HERALD

TAKE HEED.

Shy and mostly mistaken as arrogant, I don't make friends easily although I would love too, tends to clamp up when I feel uncomfortable. And at times i do suffer from the foot-in-the-mouth syndrome and at times i just enjoy being an ass. It does make me thankful for having friends that accept me as I am though. Don't mistake me for someone who's mean for the sake of being mean and no, i'm not full of hatred. I do have a problem with 'stupid' people. I'm not the next Stephan Hawkings nor do i claim to be but people who thinks acting bimbo-ish is cute, go far far far away from me.
