Nico Yazawa Makeup Tutorial (ish) and Cosplay Update!

It's been a while hasn't it? Sorry I haven't been blogging much lately, I've been busy with work, as well as my Youtube and shop ;o; But I still find time for cosplay! I'll be at Anime Attacks in a couple of weeks, so I decided I would test my Nico cosplay and check everything is ready!
You may remember my last cosplay makeup tutorial, for Ryuko. I'll be doing the same sort of thing again for Nico, so let's go! :3
 I started with Super Pinky Wine Red lenses. I liked them for a more natural looking red as opposed to a bright scary colour xD
I then started with foundation and concealer, and a little white eyeliner under my eyes
 Simple eyeliner next, I tried to follow Nico's eye shape
 Little black lines on the eyelids gives an 'anime' effect
 I added blush and also coloured my eyebrows slightly black
 For the lashes I used Red Cherry which I bought from here. They're very light and very pretty!
 I used top lashes, and cut two single lashes from a set of bottom lashes, as Nico has two little lines under her eyes just like that. I also added a small line of eyeliner right under my iris.
I used some light pink lipstick and then I was ready to put on my cosplay!
 Here are two photos I edited for my World Cosplay account. Feel free to follow me!
And here are some slightly less edited photos :3




I hope you enjoyed this kind of tutorial and cosplay update!
Just a quick note, I applied to be a writer for Super Cute Kawaii and one of my posts has been submitted as a guest post, it would be great if you could check it out and leave some feedback, it's a clay cupcake tutorial! Check it out here!
