The Gothic Two-Step: April 2013
http://gothictwostep.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Thursday, 25 April 2013. WASH YOUR BLOODY FACE - a crash course in the Oil Cleansing Method. Right, you 'orrible lot, you're all getting spotty and trying to hide it with badly applied foundation and it's NOT WORKING! See all those cleansers that boast of being oil-free? Plenty of hot water. Now, that was a very brief crash course in the OCM, I recommend looking it up for more info - here's a more detailed page from Acne.org. Both of these rinse off beautifully, t...

The Gothic Two-Step: September 2011
http://gothictwostep.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Friday, 2 September 2011. What I'm testing tonight. Forgive the dreadfully-lit picture and somewhat daft expression. I'm off to dance the night away and, should my makeup last, I'll have a couple of things to recommend and use in my eyeliner review. Here's what the eyeliner looked like after a night of dancing. I'm bedraggled, sweaty and tired, but the black has not budged - not a single trip to the mirror for touch-ups required! We have a winner!

The Gothic Two-Step: July 2012

For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Friday, 27 July 2012. For those who are reading for fashion/makeup/general style purposes, here was my hair and face-a-me-doo for last night's Danse Macabre, a monthly night co-run by my partner with the theme of Goth/80's/italo/disco (I know, right? I forgot to adjust my webcam for this one, apologies for blurriness. Foundation: Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation in 100 Ivory. Powder: Gothic Geisha white mineral makeup (eBay). Mascara: Maybelline Great Lash.

The Gothic Two-Step: January 2012
http://gothictwostep.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Saturday, 7 January 2012. I once tried a detangling spray but it only seemed to make things worse and, bizarrely, stickier. Here's what I doing right now. YOU WILL NEED: Wide-toothed comb, deep-conditioning hair mask, clarifying/deep cleansing shampoo, patience and a bit of time to spare. Detangle any 'easy' bits carefully. Take your time over this - hacking and tugging away with the brush will lead to serious extra damage and potential bald spots. One thing you c...

The Gothic Two-Step: Killing Time: the Freak tag.
http://gothictwostep.blogspot.com/2013/08/killing-time-freak-tag.html
For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Monday, 19 August 2013. Killing Time: the Freak tag. I try not to engage with these things as I want this blog to be focussed, however my posting has been so near to non-existent recently I reckon I can justify it this one time. I got this from Ali at Zombies Wear Eyeliner. Who does makeup reviews for cheapskates (almost everything is pharmacy brand stuff) and thus is someone I endorse. Check her out. 1 What's a nickname only your family calls you? I have no shame...

The Gothic Two-Step: May 2015
http://gothictwostep.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Friday, 22 May 2015. Growing up Goth - after the phase cements. I'm in my mid twenties. I've been dressing in corsets, lots of black, impractical boots and too much eyeliner since my late teens when I finally got full rein on my wardrobe, and I've never once regretted it. I was in medical school without image-related issues for three years before transferring to Psychology (finished my third year exams today, booyah! YOU CAN GET A JOB. Happy World Goth Day! Thanks...

For a brighter, less clown-faced future. Saturday, 11 February 2012. Right, this is another one for the people with hair that just doesn't 'do' volume. When I want big hair I use the following:. A teasing brush and/or a fine-toothed comb. Strong or Freeze-hold hairspray. Hair that's not been washed on that day (shiny clean hair just slips straight down). AND THE LATEST THING WHAT I'VE DISCOVERED THAT NO-ONE TOLD ME ABOUT: mattifying root powder. What's that you say? POWDER for your HAIR? My various bad m...
