Monday's franken is something I made after RBL chose their top eleven fan submissions and I wasn't one of them. While this wasn't my submission, the whole thing got me thinking and I came up with Siren Song, a teal/purple duochrome with orange, blue, purple, green microglitter/shimmer and flakies. To make it, I used Rimmel Night Before, Sally Hansen Laser, Sally Hansen DVD, Sally Hansen Blue It, Hard Candy Beetle, Sally Hansen Marine Scene, Pure Ice No Means No, Twinkle Toes green shimmer(it's hoof polish for horses...I got it as a joke), Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, and probably something else that I forgot. It's definitely my franken with the most ingredients so far.
Unfortunately, Siren Song photographed horribly. It was rainy when I took the pictures, and all the lighting in my house made it look really blah, which it doesn't in real life. It's much sparklier and duochrome-ier and generally much prettier than in the pictures, but I figured I'd show it anyway. WARNING: the pictures ahead are realllllly bad.

The color of the first picture is closer to accurate, but the second picture kind of shows the flakies and sparkles, which the first doesn't do at all. Sorry for the terrible pictures - this is definitely on my reblogging list.
I like all the multi colored sparkles! (Also--hoof polish? I had no idea there was such a thing!)
ReplyDeleteI think that it still looks quite lovely. :) I'm sorry you weren't picked as a finalist. However, that franken is still gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks, and I didn't either! I may do a brief post on it...I think it's pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I was pretty disappointed in the selections. I fell like there were a lot of amazing ideas that didn't get picked.
ReplyDeleteIts got a great variety of sparkles. I always find those hard to capture with my camera. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I wish my camera would just cooperate sometimes... :)
