As Halloween is fast approaching, I became incredibly excited to start experimenting with different make up looks for different costumes.
The first I decided to try out was a Witch.
 |
| I chose to use a pale foundation that perfectly matches my skin tone as I thought the dramatic effect of the lipstick and eye shadow would look best against a pale canvas. |
 |
| I used this Collection Extreme Liner to draw symmetrical sections onto my eyelids for the eye shadow to be applied to. |
 |
| Charlotte Tilbury's Glastonberry lipstick seemed an appropriate choice as the pigmentation is great, it has long lasting coverage and is a gorgeous dark purple, and Witches are often seen wearing purple. |
 |
| I used this as a base for my foundation as I want something that will keep the make up on my face and prevent it from fading throughout the night. |
 |
| These are the four shades I used for eye shadow, unfortunately, the Front Cover palette I got these from was discontinued so it is quite difficult to find. They are however, available on Ebay. The shades from left to right are; Bright Aqua, Tarn Green, Twinkling Grape & See The Stars. |
For the eyes, I began with the Collection Felt Tip Liner to create an outer wing in which the eye shadow would sit. Then I applied the Tarn Green shade all over my eyelid and into the shaped wing. Once both lids were done, I blended the See The Stars shade into the outer creases and the wing to create a dark, smoky effect. I then added Twinkling Grape to the outer creases just to add a little extra glitter and colour to the smoky eye. After that, I applied a small amount of the Bright Aqua to the inner creases and blended it in. I also applied Tarn Green & See The Stars to my lower lash line.
I will be pairing this make up look with a glamorous sparkly dress and this witches hat!
So there is my first Halloween make up look, a Glamorous Green Glittery Witch! I hope you like this look, and keep an eye out for some other Halloween make up ideas in the near future!
