Japan in 12 Colours (Days 1-6)

So for the past few days, I've been in Japan. I needed to pack light for my trip, so I only brought 13 samples with me. Seems like a lot, but it's way less options than I'm used to...and being dumb, I didn't check my own swatches and ended up bringing 2 colours that are dupes of each other (Backstreet Makeup Co's Laissez-Faire & Eccentric Cosmetics' Earl). So this leaves me with only 12 colours to play with...

Here are the colours I picked:

Thanks to lack of wi-fi & being too lazy to update the past few days, here's a compilation of the first 6 looks:

  • Daisy Bird Cosmetics — Dandy Dandelion
  • Eccentric Cosmetics — Earl
  • Life's Entropy — Enchant
Sorry for the crap lighting! The hotel room's dark!
    Lips is Limnit's Abracadabra, sheered out with a DC's lip balm. Btw, DC's lip balms are awesome...they taste soooo good and they're super moisturizing and creamy. The oilier formula is also the best for sheering out lipsticks to get a more stained look!

  • Beauty For The Win — The Fault in Our Swatches
  • Notoriously Morbid — Melancholy One
  • Ten Three Labs — Electric Love

  • Dawn Eyes Cosmetics — Momo
  • Eccentric Cosmetics — Earl
  • Life's Entropy — Enchant
  • Mad Lab Cosmetics — Pearl
  • My Pretty Zombie — Grandma Cleavage
  • Notoriously Morbid — Melancholy One
I'm kinda sad Momo didn't really show up in the center, and just turned the colour slightly brownish in the centre instead.

Lips is Fyrinnae ombréd out with another lipstick I customized.
