Lisbeth Salander/Dragon Tattoo heroin chic makeup tutorial

[parianpour]

wow badass you are the only one that has it right. I mean I've searched forever on here looking for this. Oh I want to bleach my eyebrows white like she had them in the movie but I have naturally black middle eastern hair. I'm very pale myself but the brows are very black. I've bleached before in the past but only was able to get them blondish. People say to use facial cream bleach but I disagree it barely worked and I had to do it like 5 times. what should i do?

[ofherbsandaltars]

@parianpour Thanks - I felt youtube was sorely lacking in this area too!

On bleaching the brows, I don't think I can be much help, have never tried any facial bleaching products...with my hair though, a salon were far better at getting it really white blonde, where I only managed to get it orangey, so maybe ask a beauty salon? (I guess if all else fails you could go all in and shave them off, but I'm betting the regrowth is a bitch...)

Does your shirt say Used? I can't read it lolz

[ofherbsandaltars]

@LexiOverdose It does yeah, I wish I could claim that I made it myself but actually it was a really lucky find in a charity shop..I don't understand it, it's obviously DIY and someone went to a lot of trouble - and then abandoned it, crazy! Definitely one of my favourite shirts, probably cost me about 3 quid. Must trawl charity shops more often :D

[LexiOverdose]

Which 17 trio is that? It's gorgeous.

[ofherbsandaltars]

@LexiOverdose I know it's name because I just bought another one the other day, so it's definitely still in shops :) It's called In The Nude, they do another one with similarish shades that are metallic too, if that's your thing!

[LexiOverdose]

@ofherbsandaltars It's very much what I've been into lately. Pretty much all of the colors you've used in this tutorial actually have been my thing at the moment, so I wanted to know. lol

You should definitely do more videos. I love the two you have up. They're refreshing.

[LexiOverdose]

@ofherbsandaltars Damn, since they don't sell them to America, I'll have to wait to see if someone'll sell it on ebay. =/ Lame!

[ofherbsandaltars]

@LexiOverdose If you have no luck on Ebay, do you want me to ship you one over? I've got paypal so that bit's easy...Damn, I can't find the receipt so not sure off the top of my head how much it was, IIRC about £5.50, which is apparently $8.70, postage probably no more than 6 dollars, likely less...really not a hassle because I can buy the thing AND post it at the top of my road... So yeah, let me know if you can't find it/people want to rip you off, and we'll Do This Thing, lol ;)

[LexiOverdose]

@ofherbsandaltars That's too nice of you! Yeah, I mean they have other shades on there, but no one's answered me. =/ Aw well. How about you message me your paypal info and I'll transfer enough for 2 of them plus postage and some for your troubles? :3

[ofherbsandaltars]

@LexiOverdose Aww, excellent, you're a star - message coming in a minute :)

[LexiOverdose]

@ofherbsandaltars Awesome, thanks so much. Yeah, the person I contacted didn't have it and wasn't planning on getting it and no one else had it, so Yup, send me your info whenever and I'll send it. lol

[Mooshisushi]

amazing job! keep it up :D

[KerryLovesGlam]

amazing x

[agirlontherockshow]

I don't have enough patience to make make up like this but... I love your look! You're so pretty :-)

[ofherbsandaltars]

@agirlontherockshow Thanks :) ..I've actually made a slightly quicker version of this my 'everyday makeup when in a rush' thing, heh...No false eyelashes, not many different shadows to blend, and best of *all*, I don't have to do my hair, just stick on a hat - winner! It's pretty good lazy makeup ;)

[FreshLemonyGoodness]

You're so pretty! And you're very talented and humble with your videos. My only critique, better lighting. But that's really only a minor detail here, and I'd LOVE to see more makeup tutorials from you!

[ofherbsandaltars]

@FreshLemonyGoodness Thanks! :) And yes, you're totally right about the lighting, I think I must experiment with different locations, where I was I had to keep scooting back and forth between the webcam and my normal mirror as I couldn't see well enough! Definitely got plans to do more when I get time, although my skin is rubbish at the moment which is putting me off >_<

[FreshLemonyGoodness]

@ofherbsandaltars Haha! Yeah, I know the feeling. Whenever my skin is rubbish, I make myself avoid my makeup, which is hard for me because when I get bored, I play around with makeup.  My poor friends end up being my models when this happens. Oh the things they do for me....

I look forward to more videos from you though! :D

[Natalie21001]

You look amazing and your so pretty ! Thanks!

[LexiOverdose]

You did a great job. I love this look. Rooney's Lisbeth is my favorite.

[ofherbsandaltars]

@LexiOverdose Thanks :) ..it's funny, because I really expected to hate Rooney as Lisbeth, in all the promo pics I thought she looked too soft, but actually the film blew me away, her fragility added to the toughness was excellent, made the rape scene far more traumatic (I thought) than the Swedish one...really hope they make the sequels too, fascinated to see who will play the massive scary dude who can't feel pain (Dolph Lundgren would be my choice, although maybe too old now..)

[LexiOverdose]

@ofherbsandaltars I agree. Btw, forgot to say, you have the coolest voice ever.

[WelcomeToTheRunaways]

I love this. You actually look a lot like Rooney Mara as Lisbeth

[Mindrelify]

I really like your look! :) I'm going to cosplay (that's not the exact word, but..) Rooney's Lisbeth Salander at this school party (all the pupils in our class are going to cosplay some movie character), and this makeup tutorial is excellent for that! I'll have to start practising the look! :DD Some of the tutorials are aiming at too black look, but this one is perfect. :>>

[LexiOverdose]

you actually look like rooney's version. great vid

[geraldin13]

wow love your video

[BabyLette95]

Thank you sooooooo much for posting this!! i loved her look in this movie! i did this make up a little (not much but a little) toned down cause i wore it to school but i have a mohawk so that kinda added to it :P

[ofherbsandaltars]

@BabyLette95 Nice one! :) I wanted to try a mohawk with it but my hair was too long at the time. Was trimmed yesterday though so tonight I'll be out with punk hair, but it's more Sonic the Hedgehog than mohawk!

[abraxxus27315]

the little dance at the end was great, lol

[ofherbsandaltars]

@abraxxus27315 Heh, fell out of character a bit there, lol, the real Lisbeth would be much less spacky!
