Snow White Makeup Look and Costume/Tutorial - #Bloggoween

This is my last one I swear (unless I get really creative in the next couple of weeks!) and this is my favourite and my personal pick for Halloween this year. I've always been in love with the Disney Princesses and although Snow White wasn't my all time favourite, I am still quite fond of her and really wanted to try out a classic Disney look for this year's Halloween.

I bought the costume off eBay and it was quite cheap but not the worst quality available. You can get full length gowns off the internet but I already knew the type of Halloween party I was heading too and if I wore a full length gown my embarrassment would be akin to Cady's in Mean Girls!

So you wanna know how to do it?

1. Full coverage foundation routine, including liquid or creme foundation, concealer, powder. Snow White has a flawless complexion and full coverage is one way to recreate her porcelain skin.
2. Since Snow White has black hair I filled in my brows with black and it made a huge difference to the look.
3. Take a lighter toned bronzer and put it around the hallows of your cheeks and temples. Then take a darker bronzer or contour powder and go over the other parts as well as the sides of the nose and the jaw line.
4. Lightly highlight under the eyes, down the nose and on the chin.
5. With a light pink blush place it on the apples of your cheeks and concentrate it quite heavily but try an avoid too round of a circle.
6. Lightly line the upper lash line with a black eyeshadow or eyeliner. Apply mascara and white eyeliner to the waterline
7. For the lips, moisturize with a lip balm then line the lips with a red lip liner. Apply red lipstick. If you make any mistakes take your concealer and define your lips.
8. DONE!

The faux bob isn't too difficult to achieve and there are heaps of tutorials around the internet to help with that!

Doe/Bambi Inspired Makeup Look/Tutorial - #Bloggoween

 (with flash)

(with natural lighting)

This is by far one of my favourites that's I've tried out for Halloween this year. I'd never done anything like this before but had seen a few people giving it a go and thought I'd give it a a try. This was my first attempt and I really like it, other than the white dots could've been a little more prominent. It wasn't as tricky as it looks and was really simple, it's mostly just contouring and eyeliner.

So you wanna know how to do it?

1. Do a normal foundation or BB cream routine.
2. Fill in brows
3. Contouring Concentrate the bronzer on the apples of your cheeks and your temples and work around in a C shape. Also place the bronzer down the sides of the nose to create the appearance of a thinner nose. Pack on a highlighter under the eyes and down the nose.
4. Eyeliner Do a simple winged eyeliner then place three small dots underneath the wing, repeat this on the inner corner down the nose. Draw on a small animal nose and connect it to your lips and put eyeliner on the top lip. Grab a white eyeliner and place small dots around the bronze areas.
5. Eye Makeup I kept everything simple and used a matte brown in the crease and a white eyeliner on the waterline. Mascara of course!
6. DONE!

You can obviously do more with this look but if you're looking for a simple Halloween look, this will definitely do the trick.

Pop Art Inspired Makeup Look/Tutorial - #Bloggoween

 (Natural Lighting)

(With Flash)

Now don't freak out, I did not cut my hair off, I was still wearing my hair in a bob from doing the Snow White makeup, which will go up in a post shortly after this one. Bloggoween is finally here and I know I might be a little in posting but because of time zones I think now is a pretty appropriate time to post the three looks I've prepared. 

This is my first look, a pop art inspired one. I opted out of doing a full face of dots and went for something a little simpler. I have to admit I didn't do the best job I could've done, but unfortunately I was using one of my lesser quality eyeliners when I was doing this look and it started loosing pigmentation and I didn't want to start again so I settled for this final result, as I think it gives the general idea and my personal interpretation of the popular look that's going around.

So you wanna know how I did it?

Started off with my normal foundation routine and very simple contouring which I will mention more with the Snow White look since it's more important for that makeup look. 

I filled in my brows with black and personally I think this will look much better on someone with brows that are less thick, but I'm not complaining.

Red lips are semi iconic for this style and I stayed with the tradition.

Now for the eyeliner! I liner around my lips then upper lash line, bridge of nose, around my nose, above my brows and in the hallows of my cheeks. You can totally add your own expression lines, it depends on what expression you want to convey, I went for mopey and sad. Then I marked the outline of the tears and filled them with a light blue eyeliner.

There's nothing too complicated about this look and it's very easy to make your own,  I love seeing other people's interpretations!
