Create the perfect gothic look 2007-07-03 10:11:31 You will need:
Foundation
Loose Powder
Brow Pencil
Black Eyeshadow
Pale Shimmery Eyeshadow
Black Eyeliner
False Eyelashes and Glue
Deep Metallic Lipstick
plus cosmetic brushes and sponges.
To create the perfect gothic look start with a clean, moisturised face and apply a pale, not white foundation with the aid of a cosmetic brush. Dust over your skin with loose powder.
Shape your eyebrows with a brow comb and colour them in with a black pencil, using short but heavy strokes. This will frame your face.
Apply a shimmery silver eyeshadow on the browbone and apply your matte black over the lid. Go right up to the socket and then blend. With a soft black kohl pencil, line your eyes, extending beyond the natural lash line on your upper lids.
Then glue on your spidery false eyelashes taking care to blend them in with your natural lashes.
Finally use a sharp black pencil to shape your lips and apply a deep metallic lipstick using a brush to complete the look.

Summer Goths 2007-06-30 00:52:02 In the summer in can be quite hard to keep the gothic look due to the heat.
Summer
is not the best time to be wearing heavy wool extensions, so I would recommend using your crimpers and hair pins to go back to your roots. Backcombing your hair is light and looks good. just remember to use hair spray that has good UV filters to protect your hair from fading hair dye.
You might want to swap your usual peroxide based dye for a gentler vegetable based colour, as the sun does not fade these as fast.
Your usual foundation may also react badly to the heat, so a sunblock with titanium dioxide is recommended. This natural mineral is the same white pigment that is found in most powders and foundations. Another tip is to layer some translucent powder over the top.
Waterproof eyeliner is also a good idea to stop panda eyes, and swap your creme eyeshadow for a powder based one to keep everything from sliding off.
Black clothes are still fashionable in the summer months, but stick to fabrics such as
Clandestine Industries Clothing 2007-06-29 13:06:23
Clandestine Industries
is not a clothing company, it is not a band, it is a story based on a nightmare. A book called “clandestine industries presents: the boy with the thorn in his side” was released in 2004. Calandestine complain that the alternative scene is already too saturated with clothing companies with bad designs and horrible bands. Therefore Clandestine is an attack on these stale ideas.
The story was based on the real nightmares of Peter Wentz, lyricist and bass player from the band Fall Out Boy. The memories of these nightmares have stayed with him since he was young, however with the visual inspiration of world famous tattoo artist Tim Biedron, these images came to life. The images were then illustrated by Joe Tesauro with intense colors by Rob Dobi, the pictures tell the story that kept the young Peter Wentz awake at night.

Gothic Lolita 2007-07-15 02:39:20 Gothic Lolita
style is usually a combination of black and white, often black with white lace and typically decorated with ribbons and lace trims. Skirts are knee length and may have a crinoline or petticoat to add volume. As in mainstream Japanese fashion, over-knee socks or stockings are extremely popular.
Black fishnet stockings and white or black tights are also common. Shoes or boots with high heels, think platforms rather than stilettos, complete the look.
Frilly, ruffled or lace-trimmed Victorian blouses are also popular especially with Elegant Goth Lolitas, who may also favour long skirts and jackets rather than the overtly ‘childish’ designs of the typical Gothloli.
Apart from occasionally short skirts, Lolita Goth designs are usually modest, sometimes with long lace-capped sleeves and/or high-necked blouses.

To Die For Clothing 2007-07-19 09:51:24
Jason Welsher started To Die For in his parent’s garage at the age of 19. He worked a full time job during the day and came home to a part time job and hobby of screenprinting and booking shows for bands across the country at night.
His younger brother Josh Welsher joined the company a year later. Josh came from a background of graffiti in which he paints murals at major events across the world.
Combining traditional tattoo art that Jason has on his body, and the graffiti that Josh sketches out in his black books, they began to incorporate their ideas with the music they listen to.
To spread the word they started to endorse bands and collaborate with artists such as Underoath, From First to Last, and The Chariot by supplying them with clothing they made by hand.
Today, To Die For Clothing
takes graffiti art to a whole new level.
