So. Space. I like space. I like it so much I decided to put it on my face. (That rhymed!)

I'm going to be entering into the NYX Face awards with this video! So wish me luck!

Thanks to everyone who sent me galaxy pictures for inspiration! It really helped!

This is so accurate and beautiful ! (Plus, you look like my cousin on the picture, as she's a makeup artist too, that was a bit disturbing e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="395" title=" (Lick)"/>)

But really, that's an original piece, wonderfully executed.
The right side of your face is obviously the one I like less, not that you're not beautiful -far from it- but even if it's kind of a recall of the other side, it brings you back to reality in a quite abrupt way ^^

But you managed to make me stare at the picture and dream about the universe, and believe me, that's quite an achievement e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="387" title=" (Wink)"/>

I saw your youtube video on how you created this which impressed me even more on the visionary effort you put into this and what an impact it has!
The technique of using glow in the dark paint makes it simply mesmerising and this encouraged me to give you a 4.5 for originality, whereas as before I would have given you a 4 as I have seen similar stuff to this before.
You are a very talented person and to create stunning art on the face like this is a wonderful gift.
By far my favourite piece that you have done, it's beautiful!

This is very well done. You are really skilled with manipulating makeup. It's clear that you spent a lot of time thinking this through with all the layers of face paint, glitter eye shadow, liner, and everything else c:
I really am very impressed by this. I love how it looks under normal light, but it looks stunning under black light.

Vision: It's evident that you knew what you wanted to end up with and went with it to the end.
Originality: I've seen many a galaxy depicted this way.
Technique: Superior usage of all materials implemented, nothing unnecessary is painted on.
Impact: "o_________o whoa that's awesome." ...in other words, very impactful. Great job! ^^

I realize this critique focused mostly on the left side of your face (right side for viewers), but I also am in love with your eye shadow on the other eye. So pretty <3

No, I haven't seen anyone put a galaxy on their face before. I wish more people would.

I was just a bit harsher in this critique because most people I know don't like it when I give them superficial constructive criticism. That's all. No offense intended.

I would like to comment that I disagree about the originality of this. I sincerely doubt you've ever seen anyone put a galaxy on their face, the idea of using a blacklight is brilliant, and originality doesn't just refer to the conformation of the galaxy depicted. It refers to the whole work of art. ^^ That being said, you've a right to your own opinions.
