Here’s the closeup of my Romantic Goth look for ✨ I’m gonna be so real, I’m not sure if I’m gonna have time to do the last two prompts this month, myself 😭 I really wanted to finish strong, but I’m moving on Monday and have a wedding to go to this weekend so my schedule is tightttt the rest of this month 😬 I will still be sharing everyone else’s looks when I have the time though! If it takes me a little longer than usual to catch up, you’ll know why 🤪

Fairly simple but impactful look for today’s prompt: Romantic Goth 🥀 These are the quintessential tones I think of when I picture gothic romance. They’re vampy, they’re sultry, they look a bit like ~blooooood oooOoOOo~ 🩸🤪 I just so happened to find most of these tones in the Glamlite Crazy in Love palette, so that was pretty serendipitously on theme heheh

Can you believe we’re down to the last few prompts of already?? Where the hell did this month go?? I was having a hard time envisioning what I wanted to do for my Celestial Goth look today, so I decided to look up pictures of nebulas for inspiration. Of course I picked the inspo photo with chartreuse, plum, and teal… in other news, fork found in kitchen 🤪 I tried to use these go-to colors of mine in a way that’s at least ~semi~ different from what I might typically do, and the addition of the navy blue adds a little twist too, I think. Overall I’m quite pleased with how this eye look turned out, though I wish I’d had time to do my full face 👉👈 I ran out of time, but maybe I’ll run it back sometime in the future with a full beat 🙂‍↕️

Today’s actual prompt is Messy Goth, but due to the nature of *gestures broadly* I am running behind and sharing my look for Whimsigoth, which was the previous prompt. (Tbh if nothing else, my general state of disarray both mentally and physically this month counts as Messy Goth - I am scattered as hell 😅) ANYWHO! I did this look over the weekend before going out for my birthday dinner. I definitely felt whimsical, and with the whole ensemble I felt quite like Absolem from Alice in Wonderland, maybe with a dash of Cheshire Cat and Alice herself as well 🙂‍↕️

There’s just something about a spiral pattern that screams “whimsigoth” to me, so I leaned heavily into that motif, as you can see 🤪 The inner corner spiral was inspired by a look from ⋆.˚𖦹⋆✮⋆.˚ 𝕤𝕠𝕡𝕙𝕚𝕒 ⋆.˚𖦹⋆✮⋆.˚
Hopefully I don’t come off as an insufferable perfectionist (I’ve been known to do that - blame the Virgo in me 😅) but this definitely isn’t my cleanest look when it comes to the graphic liner. So I think it counts towards Messy Goth too, at least a liiiittle 🤏

Here’s the closeup of my Moldy Goth look for / my submission for Lea Evangelista ‘s open collab, whose theme for this round is “Make it weird.” I definitely felt wacky and weird in this look, and depending on what the end of this month is looking like, this look may have to count as my entry for Unsettling Goth, too, but we will see!!

I’ve sooooo enjoyed seeing everyone’s submissions so far, especially for the Moldy Goth prompt - your creativity blows me away 🤩 Excited to see what the rest of this month has in store :D

Mold emoji when??? The fourth prompt for 2026 is Moldy Goth, and I knew immediately that I must use the Rotten palette from Blend Bunny® Cosmetics and Mei Pang 🙂‍↕️ I actually added this palette to my collection only very recently, because right when it first came out, I was just beginning to recover from a pretty gnarly mold-induced cold 😬 so mold was a bit of a sore subject at the time for me 😆 But I definitely see why Mei drew such powerful inspiration from it, I had a blast embracing the funky shapes and colors of mold growth for this look. Since this look is so out there, I would also like to make this my formal submission for Lea Evangelista open collab, since the theme is “Make it weird” 🫨
