A Sunday Review of Artisanagogo & Giveaway:

Good Morning Lovies,


I was perusing etsy and happened to luck out a find Julies store, artisanagogo.

She makes the most gorgeous hair clips ever!!!! I just had to message her a drool over them.
I lucked out and Julie was kind enough to let me do a review and even better to give one of my Lovies a beautiful hair clip. (more on that in a minute)
Julie is based in Austin Texas. Also where my oldest Daughter and her sweet Husband live.

Julie creates these ultra hot hair accessories in a retro fashion. Some are Gothic in style and other’s very hip Rockabilly/Punk. She also does custom orders and wedding styles.

You must go check out her etsy store Artisanagogo.
The one I am reviewing is Vampire red Day of the dead hair clip which sells for only $14.00 plus shipping.

I am so in love with this clip it is made of Striking red and black feathers engulfing a red skull attached to a black satin and chiffon pressed rose, it’s just stunning!
This is attached to a secure stiff felt tear on a large salon hair clip to securely hold all night.

Vampy blackend red sexy lips

The picture on left is to show what we are going for. This is a slightly more subtle Vampy lip that I did last week for Carm.

What you will need: A black eyeliner. I used Urban Decay 24/7 in Zero only because I was too lazy to go look for one of my cheapo black liners. A Red Lip liner in whatever shade you like. And either a Coordinating gloss or lip stick. I used Evil Shades lip gloss in Guilty as sin, because I'm a gloss Whore. On Carm I used a red plum lip stick and added Evil Shades gloss in Venom for shine.

Step 1: Line and shape outer edge of lip line in Black liner.


Step 2: Thicken the outline by filling in as thick as you like with black liner. Leave the center blank to add red.



Step 3: Fill center with red liner(or whatever your chosen color)


Step 4: Blend black in toward the red. Smudge the line between the two colors. I use an eyeliner smudger.


Step 5: Add gloss or lipstick or both. Start by gently patting gloss into the center of lip and dab it out to the outer edge.


There you have it a simple Vampy lip!
My final tip: play with colors, try a blue or green maybe purple or for those who need to tone it down, try a soft neutral brown for the outer line and a pearly neutral peach or pink in the center.
