Happy Halloween Everybody!
I get so excited about Halloween, I spend way too much money on decorations, go mad on Pinterest looking for inspiration, and make costumes way too complicated.
So, I thought that I would squeeze in a last minute Halloween post for those of you who haven’t managed to sort out your costumes yet this year, have been invited out on a last minute fancy dress outing, or, if you’re like me and usually over-complicate your outfit, just want to go for an easier, simpler costume this year. Welcome to…
So, let’s get this show on the road!
1. Spooky Scarecrow
Firstly, I used the bronzer to overly tan the top half of my face, bronzing my forehead, eyelids, down my nose, and my cheeks.
Once I’d finished with my tanning, I used the eyeliner to draw a line along where the bronzed skin meets the non-bronzed skin. , and then added some little notched along the line so that it looked a bit like stitching.
I did this again, this time as a little triangle on my nose.
I roughed my hair up, added some lipstick, and voila! One Spooky Scarecrow.
2. Kitty Kat
The classic Halloween got to for girls everywhere, the kitty kat!
I started by using the eyeliner to give myself a little black nose – top tip! Put less pressure on the brush when you brush upwards to give your cat nose a brush effect. So cute!
I carried on using the eyeliner to draw on whiskers, the cat mouth thing (ahem), and a pair of cat ears.
Using the lipstick, I rubbed a little on my finger and smudged it on the insides of the ears.
3. Hungry Zombie
My favourite of all three 🙂
I smudged black eyeliner under my eyes and slightly towards my cheeks. I added some red as well, using the same, lipstick on the finger technique as with the cat ears.
I just then went mental, covering my chin, mouth, and lower cheeks in lipstick, and a little bit of the eyeliner, to try and make it look like I (as a zombie) had just eaten something 😉
And there you have it.
I hope you all have a lovely Halloween tonight, and if any of you are out in Christchurch I’ll keep an eye out for you!
