Halloween Series #4: Queen of Hearts

Hey everyone!

Today's look is a Queen of Hearts inspired one and I did it on my lovely friend, Sara. I hope you enjoy!

To begin I used a white face paint to outline the heart and filled it in. I then outlined it with a black liner and coloured the outside of her face in with a charcoal grey shadow. If I had black facepaint, I would have used that instead.

For the eyes I used some grey in the crease of the eye and a little bit of winged liner. I piled loads of mascara on and made her brows much darker and fuller.

For the lips I used a red liquid lipstick and drew a heart shape onto the lips, making sure the rest of the lip was white.

Finally, I added a black beauty spot in a heart shape on her left cheek.

I hope you enjoyed this look! It's really quick and easy and can be done with most makeup you have at home, or with very limited Halloween face paint!

Halloween Series #3: Ice Queen

Hey everyone!

Today's post features one of my best friends, Jess, and I decided to borrow her face and turn her into an Ice Princess/Queen/regular ice girl, I dunno. I figured the "Frozen" phase is passing slightly, so it's safe for me to do this without it being interpreted as an Anna or Elsa look. 

I started with a really pale base and lots and lots of highlighter. I wanted her skin to be luminous, but bordering on shiny. I used blue eyeshadows with metallic finishes to put on the eyes, and I also took it around her hairline and contoured with them as well. I also added some snowflakes with a blue liquid liner and buffed over them with more highlighter and glitter.

I went over Jess' brows with a white eyeshadow pencil to give them a frosty look, and I also did this over the lips but applied some blue and purple shadows over top for a frostbitten effect. 

For some finishing touches I used a white mascara and some purple on the lower lashline. 

I hope you enjoyed this look!

Halloween Series #2: Shattered Skin

Hey everyone,

Today it's Halloween Series post #2! I've tried to create a look that makes it seem as though my face has been shattered. Inspired by my friend, Sara, who recently shattered her iPhone (sorry). Thanks for inspiring dude! Hope you enjoy!! 

I kept the base really simple for this look with no extra colour other than my foundation.

I used a black eyeliner to create a central point on my forehead and then I went from there. 

I went over the black liner with some matte eyeshadow and tried to highlight with some white liner, but to be honest I liked it better with no highlight. I really love how it turned out, and I think after some practice it's quite a simple look to recreate with makeup most people will already have.

Here's the before and after shot!

Halloween Series #1: Big Cat

Hey everyone,

Today's post is the first of many- some of my favourite looks to create and the ones I get the best feedback on. I hope you enjoy look number one, the Big Cat. 

I started with a shimmering base topped with a darker foundation than my skintone.

I then added dimension by using bronzer on the outer edges of my face and contouring my nose and cheekbones with a matte brown shade.

I added a bronze eyecolour all over the lid and lined my eyes with black liner to create a cat-eye effect.

I added the spots all over, outlining with a black liner and then filling in with various matte and shimmery golds and bronzes. I also added the lip and nose with black cream shadow, but you could always skip this and go for a nude lip.

I've decided to do this at the end of every Halloween look to demonstrate the power of makeup!
