Tiger FOTD

I did this Halloween look over a week ago but for some reason I wasn’t quite happy with it so I never got around to posting it but, looking at it again I thought I might as well- hopefully it’ll give someone out there an idea for what to wear to a costume party :)
This one is just as simple as my other Halloween looks but it just takes a little longer to do, all you’ll need is a foundation, a white eyeliner, a contouring powder, an orange and a black eyeshadow, eyeliner and a mascara.
1. Apply your foundation (I opted for matte full coverage)
2. Sharply contour cheekbones & temples
3. Go around the contouring with the orange shadow
4. Draw on lightened areas with a white liner and blend
5. Sketch on stripes, liner and broaden out the nose with an eyeliner
6. Go over the liner with a black shadow to darken & draw on the lip
7. Conceal lower lip, apply mascara and touch up
8. Do your hair and your ready to do!

The more I look at this the more I like it but I’m still not 100% happy with it, what do you think? Have you decided on what you’re going to be this Halloween? I still can’t choose between the Fairy, the Mermaid and the Zombie!

Hope this has been Helpful!! x

Zombie FOTD


Here’s my third Halloween make up look and this is a pretty generic Halloween make up that I suppose could work for nearly any costume – I’m just going to call this a zombie one though :)
This really is a look anyone can do as you need barely any products and its super quick to do!
  1. Apply a pale foundation or white face paint (I used a white foundation with a little gray eyeshadow) and powder your face
  2. Take a black shadow and start heavily contouring your cheek bones, your temples and your under eyes
  3. Place a black eyeshadow all over your lid and slightly blend out to create a dark smokey eye
  4. Take a black eyeliner and draw on the line of your cut, lightly line your lips then lightly do your brows 
  5. apply a red eyeshadow(you can use a lipstick or a lip liner too) to draw on the open wound and around your eyes
  6. And to finish conceal your lips blending in the eyeliner and apply lashings of mascara- Simple!
 I actually did something really simple to this last year and because there’s nothing fancy, it lasted the whole night with only one quick little touch up. Let me know what you’re going to be this Halloween and if you like this little Halloween make up idea posts :)

Hope you’ve enjoyed!! x
