Halloween Madness (3 looks)

hello there lovelies !
how are you doing ? first of all, I'd like to excuse myself for not posting recently, but I've had loooooads of college work to do, but now I've a week off college (YES!) so I'll try my best to write as many posts as it's possible during this week :D and I promise you to be a good blogger and post regularly :D

anyway, today (technically tonight) I'd like to show you halloween looks that I created this year and I hope that I will inspire you to recreate it :D I love halloween, just because you can go crazy on the outfit, makeup, fake blood, contact lenses etc. It's the perfect time of year for those who love to dress up and be creative ! anything is allowed ;)
so first look that I've for you is the half face zombie girl, which honestly took me  half an hour to do. All I did was I mixed different shades of red, purple and brown and put them on the lid. Then I created the rottening skin-like scars with a paper towel and a eyelash adhesive !






















second look I created was the pop-art face :D which originally was meant to be a zombie, but I wasnt happy with the way it turned out, so I just ket going and finished it off by adding white spots all over my face, then used liquid eyeliner to contour my face as well as outlining my lips. simple but effective !


and lastly: something that I did tonight ! my friend asked me to transform her into a Harley Quinn, so I got pretty excited and in my opinion I did an awesome job, as both of us were happy with the final result :D
I got an inspiration, from an amazing youtuber Julia Graf (go check her out if you don't know who she is!)


I hope I helped you in some way ;) 
let me know what you think about it
byeeee

Halloween Tutorial: Bloody Mary

hello there lovelies !
I know it's early, but today I've got for you super easy, but effective (in my opinion) halloween tutorial :D
this will take you 20 minutes max and it's good for those with no idea for a halloween costume :D
so here is the finished look :D


and now onto the step-by-step tutorial:


1. start off with the eyes, because you're going to be using dark eyeshadow so it will get kind of messy :D


2. apply red cream eyeshadow or eyeshadow base to your lid, but if you don't have it, don't worry :D I've used deep red lipstick 


3. set the cream eyeshadow/lipstick with a burgundy red eyeshadow, so that it's more vibrant and it stays in place.


4. define your crease with a warm brown eyeshadow, going all the way in, slightly blending into the brow bone 


5. define the crease even more with a mixture of dark brown and black eyeshadows, this will add more depth to the eyes, and also will darken them up, which is what you want 


6. apply the same dark brown and black eyeshadow into the lower lid to make it more dramatic

7. once your eyes are done, apply foundation of your choice, set it with a light powder to make your skin look pale 

8. use dark bronzer and a bit of red eyeshadow to contour your face

9. and now it's the fun time: use fake blood of your choice (you can buy it in a costume shop cheaply and it will last you forever) and using a cotton bud apply it to the lower lid and let it flow down.


10. tease your hair a bit and put some red eye conctacts to make it even more dramatic :D (i just coloured in my eyes in Paint haha)

hope you like it :)
