Wednesday Addams Makeup Tutorial.




Hi Everyone!

Today's post is Wednesday Addams Halloween tutorial!


Firstly I created sad, dark and tired eyes using a grey eyeshadow
all over the lids, up to the brow and under my eyes. blending it right out.
Then I took a small amount of black and put it through the crease and 
in the inner corner, right next to the bridge of the nose.
I lined my tightline with a black pencil liner to darken my lash line. 
I filled in my eyebrows with black eyeshadow.


Then I applied some brown lipstick and patted some black eyeshadow 
on the inside part of my lip. This created depth and darkened up my lips.


I created a fake widows peak with black eyeshadow and a black pencil liner.


I braided my wig into two braids.


This is the completed look! 





This is a great look for parties and get togethers!

Halloween Tutorial - Stitches



Hi Everyone! 

Today's post is very special!
My very first YouTube tutorial!



This Halloween season, I've been creating YouTube videos
to show you all! 
The very first is a super easy decapitated head and stitches 
Halloween look!
Created by using makeup!

Here is the link:



The products I used were :

Bobbi Brown Blush- I used this to make the neck wound look
raised and inflamed.


 Rimmel Blush Trio: I used this to deepen the redness of the skin
and to blend colors together.



Kate Moss Lipstick 09 by Rimmel : I used this to act as blood,
I wanted this look to be achievable for everyone, I wasn't going to spend
money on products not everyone could get a hold of.



Oasis - Chi Chi Palettes: The black and the darkest blue came in very handy
as they acted as bruising/cool toned colors. 



Bronzes - Chi Chi Palettes: I used mostly the redish purple and the dark purple
colors from this palette. ( 2nd and 3rd from the right )



DiorShow Art Pen- I used this to draw on the stitches,
 I wouldn't recommend using such a high-end makeup product, 
I would go for a Rimmel or Maybeline Eeeliner next time.


This look is mostly just layering colors until you're happy with it.

When I started on my face makeup, 
I left most of my face clear of products because
 I wanted a natural and more pale look,
 I sculpted out my face with
the bruised tones and made myself look very tired.  


I hope this helps anyone looking for an easy makeup/costume 
for Halloween!

How I Style - Mean Green.




 Hi Everyone!

I'm sorry I haven't been posting very often,
I've been trying to organize Halloween tutorials for you all! 
If you have any suggestions, feel free to comment or contact me!

Today's post is about how I styled a vibrant printed dress 
that I bought in Sydney the other day!



Its a short, flowing dress that has palm leaves, birds and flowers on it.
I thought it looked too boring, so I played around with
some different accessories and now it's probably my favorite thing 
 to wear in the whole wide world!


The belt pulls in the waist, creating more of an hourglass figure.

I never thought green would look nice on me, 
but it suits my skin tone really well! so I urge everyone to go outside
of their comfort zone and try on things that you wouldn't usually go for!



These are some of the accessories I paired with the dress:

Earrings: Colette by Colette Hayman
Watch: Wallace Bishop
Stackable Rings: Colette by Colette Hayman
Belt: Target ( might not be available, it was bought a while ago )
Sandals: Tony Bianco



Thankyou so much for reading,
and until next time..
