ガングロ!

So with some encouragement from many friends I gained the courage to do a ganguro look.
I have to admit I was scared at first, why? I'm not sure hahaha! I guess its because I was kind of scared to see how my face would look like super tan.

So went to the store and bought some bronzer from COVERGIRL trublend minerals called golden sunrise. I didn't think much about the name golden sunrise but when I took it home I think i found out why it was called that, It had bits of glitter. Now I'm not a big fan of Bronzers mostly because I like to stay this light pail tan that I am, but my friends wanted to see it so now I am a proud owner of Bronzer, and I guess I will have to do this style more often.

The funny thing about Ganguro is that its so not me hahaha! Its so bright with colors, glitzy and tan. The hair is the only thing I'm really cool with because I do my hair brighter then my natural color which is a dark brown, almost black. Anyways! enough about how I felt before I was doing this look!

While putting this stuff on I was laughing at how i looked with tan skin and pail lips haha! Then I put on the white around my eyes and thought i looked like a reverse panda, I put on the black eyeshadow and liner, mascara and painted my lips white and added the highlights. I put down my hair and fixed the messy parts, I sticked on some stickers and stuff on my face and I was done, It was time to see the finished product.

I went to the mirror expecting to be horrified! But actually I was shocked that I did a pretty good job at it.

tada! [sorry its do dark]

So I felt like any masked person would, free to do as I pleased.
For some reason i felt liberated to do what ever, dance,be loud, laugh the way I love to, do funny faces. I don't know if it was the rebellious energy of the  Golden skinned ガングロ running through me, BUT I felt so crazy and ready to show of this wonderful look. sadly it was late at night when I decided to do this crazy look so only I and people who have seen my pictures when I posted it up on facebook have witnessed this. But that's ok, I still have a lot of Bronzer left behind! This might not be the only time I do this look. ;)

Ok, I know some people think this look is one of the worse to come out of Japan. I once thought it was outrageous, something I would not like to do my self. But that didn't mean i didn't like The people who did it, if I had a friend that did this look I would have love to hang out with her. I know this look is not for me, But I'm glad I didn't push it away before I tried it. I challenge people to try this look and see what they feel about the look after. I mean I still wouldn't want to do this every day of my life but I honestly felt something when I did this look, and it was fun!
