You’re a WIZARD…MERMAID, Harry!

Two things that are awesome: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Mermaids.

My lovely, fellow Nerd Makeup Ambassadors, Sasha, Dawn, Christal and I decided it would be a smashing idea to do a mashup between the four Hogwarts houses and mermaids. Each of our looks incorporates makeup from Espionage Cosmetics. I’ve gone ahead and embedded each ladies’ IG post explaining makeup deets and all that jazz. Also, if you’re not following them, go do the thing. They are all wonderful and super talented MUAs (and nerds).

@ohjaechaos // Slytherinth

Here’s my contribution to our awesome Hogwarts+Mermaid Collab. I tried to put my most sinister foot forward for my rendition of a Slytherin Mermaid. Obviously, the serpent played a major roll in this goodness. PRODUCTS USED: @espionage_cosmetics Betrayal, Double Kill, Manifestation, Gorram, and Vault Hunter, @smashboxcosmetics photo ready primer, @makeupforeverofficial Flash Palette, @urbandecaycosmetics Hard Rock Glitters in silver and green (discontinued), @nyxcosmetics Hd translucent setting powder, @jeffreestarcosmetics Weirdo Liquid Lipstick, @mehronmakeup silver metallic pigment, @shopvioletvoss glitter adhesive, and lots of silver leif and rhinestones. My wig is “Chrome Blade” from @pennydreads and I edited my eyes because I don’t have any sclera lenses. I think it turned out pretty cool. What are YOUR thoughts?

You can rest assured that there will be many more collabs coming between me and my fantastic NMA buddies. And in all clarity and transparency, Espionage Cosmetics did not sponsor our collaboration. While we are all Nerd Makeup Ambassadors for EC, we thought it would be a cool thing to do. Yep. 

Which House Mermaid is your favorite? What sorts of things should we collab with next? Let me know in the comments and feel free to check out my awesome buddies – they’re nerdalicious. 🙂
