Halloween 2013

So here is the final look I came up with :) Super cute yet fierce purple witch coming at ya! I had a Halloween party/fundraiser to go to so I figured a little black dress (LBD) was more than fitting for the occasion. I have this wonderful re-sale clothing store by my house in TX, that supports battered women and I like to shop there all the time. Not only am I supporting what they stand for but I am also getting great deals on clothing that is in near perfect condition. The dress that I wore for this event is velvet and has shiny diamond like accessories around the collar (front and back). It was the perfect length that fell right above the knee. It was form fitting and yet I felt comfortable the whole night and didn't worry about being uncomfortable after I ate. My witch hat is something my mom has collected over the years (I currently have 9 witch hats….yeah do you see a trend here). My earrings and rings are from a $1 jewelry store here in Oklahoma.

Ok so here I tried to give you the most fierce head shots I took. I honestly just really love how the makeup turned out and the face glitter looks so perfect and mystical and not at all trashy!! and dang look at those purple lips!! Those lips too soooooo much work but were so worth it in the end!

so this is what the dress looks like. Don't mind the messy room..I was too concerned about making this look like perfection to clean.

And after the night was done, I really didn't want to take any of my make-up off or the glitter. Let's face it, if I could wear make-up like this everyday I would!!!

Hope you guys liked my look, I will make a post on what products I used later :D

Thanks! 

Prep Halloween 2013

 My favorite holiday is Halloween! Hands down my favorite time of year! I love love love love love love everything about the halloween season :D So I take my makeup pretty seriously for halloween which usually makes me try out makeup looks several days in advance and then a final preview the night before halloween. I try to incorporate glitter into my halloween looks every year so this is what I came up for my "final preview." I had a really hard time deciding whether to do a "green witch" or "purple witch" look. Since purple is my favorite color I chose to stick with purple and make the magic happen!

 For all my glitter application I used normal body glitter and eyelash adhesive as the binding agent. I drew the pattern of where I wanted to glitter using a q-tip and the eyelash adhesive, then I patted on the glitter with an old eyeshadow brush that I use specifically for glitter.

 I used the same process mentioned above to create the design on my leg. I was trying to go for a branch (like tree branches) and swirl type look. Last minute I added the heart at the top of the design to try and sweeten up the look.

 These two pictures help you get a closer look at the glitter on my leg :)

Hope you guys like my preview look :)
