Anjelyc: sheesh...perdoname for tryin somethin new lol

Nowadays, everyone is all about the tattoo layer makeup.  It is popping up everywhere, in skin shops and even in clothing shops!  I was...I think I was working and dodging group notices here and there when somehow I came across a listing for a sim that supposedly looks like Manhattan.  Being a NY'er I got all excited and wanted to see what it looked like as well as how it resembled the real deal.  So I patiently played tug of war with the time clock and when it was time to leave, I punched out and TP'd right over to this sim.  I landed in a shop, but I didn't know it was a shop right away being that everything was so gray.  Apparently alot of work went into that sim so I was excited to wander around a little bit and check out the build, as well as the shops on the sim.  We all know I can't resist an impromptu shopping spree. 




So, once the shop started to rez I saw a box with lips on it. It was for tat layer lipstick and it was like...I don't know...60L maybe? I can't remember for sure and my viewer is acting up right now so I can't check. Not that I would...well I might. Anyway, I've become somewhat obsessed with finding a skin for myself that has that perfect dark red lip for the smoldering latina evening look lol. Yep, that's what I call it! As of now, I haven't found it and I am still looking but these tattoo layers could be the answer to my prayers. I have a bunch of skins that I love love LOVEEE but the lips aren't dark red. Pinks, yep and nudes oh I've got a bunch. I love the dark smokey eye with the nude lip look. I even go for it in RL, so I went a tad overboard with that. I just want one skin to have the tone I'm looking for and I can end this madness once and for all! *LOL* As for the tattoo layers, I haven't found the shade of red I'm looking for as of now so I hope to randomly come across it and excitedly tell you all about it.



Once I had rezzed, I realized I was in a shop that was specifically created to make and sell tattoo layered makeups! There is a definite variety of the genre you can just delve right in and make yourself at home putting together a million looks right there in your head lol.  Some of them weren't really what I would call my style, but I know alot of models out there love the extreme fierce look and the dark makeup or dramatic colors.  I have to say the variety is really what stuck with me.  So, even though I am completely overrun with the amount of groups I have I joined this one also.  I don't think I'll be leaving it, to be honest.  The owner is super nice, chats with the group and asks opinions of her customers.  She has started making skins, all the skins and layer makeups in the pictures here are hers.



In the 3 days that I have been a member of the group I think she's sent out 3 or 4 gifts.  At least 2 have been skins from the new line she is working on!  I've never been in a group like that before haha, but it's totally fun and everyone is polite...the gifts are awesome.  I bought a fantastic layer makeup called 'The Clone' that comes in black & white in the same box and its such a shame I refuse to use V2 [so hard! waaaah] because they are 2 part face tats and I can't wear it yet!  I hope TPV's can allow us that also because I'd really enjoy showing it off!

Soooo have I kept you waiting long enough? Hehe...the name of the shop is Elegant Epiffany and it is owned by Bubble Faintree!  For the Budget Impaired on SL, she has gatcha available and also lucky chair.  Group members can participate in Midnight Madness or...is that what it's called? I think so!  There is a group gift at the shop, and like I said random one's via the group itself.  I'd recommend joining if you enjoy wearing the makeup layers.  It's a great, affordable new little place with enough different styles that anyone can find something they'd enjoy! And at some point I have to go back...because I never did check out the rest of that sim build...

I don't really have one. Most of the things I blog, I purchased. I am always honored if someone enjoys my writing enough to send me an item to add to the blog. When I have the time to do so, I certainly will. I do alot of events blogging and work so sometimes it does take a bit and I apologize for that! Thank you in advance for thinking of me.
