Funk to Funky

Last saturday was David Bowie at a club I like. Claire and I decided to go.I hadn't been out dancing in a long long time and the first time in about 6 months I'd been and not had a panic attack on the way there. Hooray! It was actually quite nice and empty with lots of room for dancing. I had lots of fun.
I decided I of course had to do Bowie makeup, originally I wanted to do that weird gold-forehead-circle thing but didn't have time to come up with a good outfit so decided to be Pierrot Bowie like at the last Bowie night. This time though I tried to actually replicate the makep from the Ashes to Ashes video as best I could.

I thought I did quite a good job but sadly my round face and squashed strawberry looking nose just can't pull it off like Bowie and his cocaine chiselled cheekbones :(


 
Here I am doing my bet Klaus Nomi face. I hope my figure looks nicer in real life!

There's a couple  more under the cut :) 

Wearing:
Face: Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in SB02, ELF Studio high definition loose powder, Illamasqua Sin powder blush, Kryolan Frambosia powder (I've had this years and have no idea if it was originally meant to be a blush or eyeshadow), Evil Shades Twizted blush, Illamasqua liquid eyeliner in Abyss
Eyes: Linneaus Cosmetics eyeshadows in twiggy and Lanky, black mascara
Lips: Mac Lip liner in Cherry, Mac lipstick in Russian Red
