Good morning and happy Friday dolls!!
Finally, it’s here!
It was about time I did this look, and I’m so pleased with how it came out. Since Alex had gotten me a galaxy dress for my birthday, I thought it was perfect to combine an MOTD and an OOTD 🙂
You all know my blog’s name is AyRGalaxy. It stands for Alex & Rossy (y = and in Spanish). Alex added Galaxy to it because we love the stars and space and we do live in our own little galaxy. Today also marks 7 years since we’ve started dating (Happy anniversary to us!), and I found today to be the perfect day to show you guys this look.
I’ve always wanted to do a galaxy inspired makeup look, but I felt like I lacked the skills before so I decided to try to attempt it.
I took inspiration from @qinniart on Instagram. She draws absolutely beautiful, vibrant, images using watercolors. The one below (“constellations freckles”) will always be my favorite along with this one, this one, and this one. (In all honesty I love pretty much all of her artwork.) Please feel free to look at her art in her Instagram page, she’s an amazing artist!
P.S. When I was editing my MOTD photos my son looked at my computer screen and said “it’s a princess” 😀
MOTD:
I didn’t want to copy exactly what @qinniart had done, so I decided that I would map out constellations of my choosing, then I thought I should map Scorpius and Sagittarius because I’m a Scorpio and my boys are both Sagittarius. (Couldn’t get more perfect than that!)
Makeup Details:
I hardly remember all the products I used because I reached for so many different ones in the process, but here’s the gist:
Eyes: It Cosmetics Brow Power Universal Eyebrow Pencil | Coastal Scents Step One Eye Primer | NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk | e.l.f. 100 Piece Marble Eyeshadow Palette | BH Cosmetics Take Me to Brazil Eyeshadow Palette | BH Cosmetics 88 Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette | Clinique High Impact Mascara | e.l.f. Dramatic Lash Kit
Face: Wet n Wild Photofocus Face Primer | Wet n Wild Photofocus Foundation in Bronze Beige | BH Cosmetics Take Me to Brazil Eyeshadow Palette | Mehron Liquid Makeup in White (to draw constellations)
Lips: NYX Extra Creamy Round Lipstick in Power | MDMflow Liquid Matte Lipstick in Retro
Here are some photos without the wig:
I apologize for the quality, I took these with my iPod before I took off my makeup.
I was so obsessed with how the look came out, I felt sorry for not doing it earlier because I had to take it off to go to bed 😦
* * Wig or no wig?! * *
OOTD:
Pretty self explanatory here. This dress is absolutely gorgeous! I’m in love with it! I’m not sure how much I’ll be wearing this winter since it’s so cold, but I do hope to get some use out of it in the future 🙂 I did also add a wig to make it a bit more galaxy themed.
Outfit Details: Dress & Wig: Amazon | Necklace & Earrings: Charlotte Russe | Heeled Boots: Love Culture
What do you guys think of this galaxy-themed MOTD and OOTD??
Are there any other themed looks you guys want me to try?
Find me on social media:
Wow this is amazing! And I like it without the wig.

Lol the pictures you did take without the wig were really nice. You should do some makeup ideas/costumes for next Halloween. I think you would have great ideas.

I actually want to start planning for Halloween early so I can be ready before September to go buy the things I need. I really have been wanting to do several tutorials or at least do makeup looks to show here on the blog, but I never got the chance to do more than one this year. I’m hoping that changes next year 🙂

Happy belated anniversary! I love this look, and especially how you personalized it! I like it a bit better without the wig – your dark hair looks a bit more like the darkness of space, and the curls start closer to your head and look kind of like whorls against the galaxy colors.

thank you doll, that means a lot 🙂
and everyone so far has said without the wig looks better, I honestly put it on because I felt like my hair was a tad bit too messy for the main photos LOL it was extremely frizzy and it would have taken me at least another hour to fix it up to look nice 🙂 but so far, I’m liking your explanation of why it looks better without the wig LOL 🙂 thank you, Andi! ❤
