Last Minute Halloween Make Up Looks!


Hey guys, Alex here and I'm bringing you Halloween makeup Inspiration!


Are You Panicking about what your going to be for Halloween? Then don't worry, Here are Some last minute Halloween make up looks and tutorials!

I am always a last minute kind of girl, especially with things like Halloween, of course I plan to buy an outfit online, but life happens and i never get round to getting things sorted. Don't panic I have some quick and easy tips for you, that won't cost a lot either... your welcome

Firstly, don't worry about your outfit, make up at Halloween can make the look complete, even if you end up just wearing something you usually wear!

Be confident be comfortable and be slightly tipsy
(if your of age, of course)

If you really want a quick and easy, budget friendly Halloween, Asda and Poundland are your BFF's.
Pound stretcher is also usually very good too, however the products aren't made to last. On the plus side though, they have vast amounts of halloweeny goodness, like face paints, hair bands, and wigs, that you can play with (back comb, spray dye, and braid)

But lets face the fact that if your going to a Halloween party, where there will be alcohol, after a while, no ones going to be noticing what your wearing, and if your wearing something that catches the attention of "drunk eyes" it will only get wrecked. trust me, i have had many university alcohol fuelled Halloween party's, i know how easy and fast it take something to get recked.


My first Halloween makeup look; scarecrow doll


To become the scare crow doll- 
This look is easier than it looks. Grab a flannel shirt, jeans or shorts and pare it with some high tops or some wellies! To create the face use a light foundation/ white face paint. Pink blush/ red lipstick smudged into a circle. Use Eye liner pen and mark on your face the lips, nose! 
Sorted!

My second Halloween look is; Grumpy Cat!



This is a super easy look to become Grumpy Cat. Its a fun and quirky look, dress in white or cream clothing, even push the boat out with a fluffy coat? I think the make up is pretty easy, white face paint and then brown eyes :) remember to accentuate the mouth area, to get the perfect grumpy cat.


My third Halloween look is mine from last year-Little Red Riding Hood!


So Last year I created DARK little red riding hood!
(Such a flattering photo)

The look is quite easy to re create too, remember i did this on a uni budget too! I got a vampire red cape from a fancy dress shop in Birmingham paired with a pirate dress. For the makeup i wore normal foundation, and blusher with a berry red lip. I then used brown eye showdown to make my face look dirty. For my eyes, i bought some black out contacts for £10 off amazon and then created a smokey eye and then went around my eye with grey eye shadow, to make a more ghostly appearance.

(apologies for the poor quality of photo, a mix of drunk and front facing camera quality)

I was a Unicorn for a fancy dress birthday party and well i pretty much covered my face in glitter and used a very pastel eyeshadow in various colours. To create the horn I just simply rolled tinfoil to make a cone and super glued it onto a head band. This is a total tangent from Halloween inspirations, but it shows you can use anything your imagination can fathom, to create quirky looks.

My forth Halloween look is Beatle Juice!

       



This year i decided that Beetle juice would be my outfit! For my Look, i simply covered my face in white face paint and contoured. Instead of blush, i used a mixture of black and green face paint. For my eyes I used purple, brown and green eye shadow's. This was literally the quickest look, and I think the effect was quite good. I just paired it with a striped shirt and leggings and then messed my hair up. Seeing as his hair is grey well- I already had it! I guess you could get grey spray or a Wig.


My fifth Halloween Look is Bambi! 
Step By Step Bambi Inspired;

After Applying a Foundation and concealer base. I marked out with a silver/white eyeshadow around my eyes and key areas where I needed to be extra highlighted for my face to get the final look.



After I had filled in the marked areas I added bronzer and darker foundation to the sides of my nose, cheeks and up to my temples, like a type of contour.


Once I felt orange enough I went over with more white eyeshadow and some white face paint to highlight my T-zone section of my face. I got a brown eyeliner and filled in my eyebrows and graduated down to my nose slowly fading and blending the colour into the bronzer.


I then Repeated on the other side and started to add black eyeliner to my nose section. I also added white eyeliner to make freckles.
Once this was dry I then extended my black eyeliner to my lip (shown in the picture)
i filled in the top lip only.





Final touches Included addling as neutral pink lipstick to the bottom lip and then adding black eyeliner around the eye and smudging and blending it in to the crease of the eye.





I would then accessorise with maybe twigs attach to a hair band for antlers and then a fur Gillet or coat :)


And Finally! my Sixth look is a Doll



Excuse the Shocked face :)

For Creepy doll Inspired make up; 

I put a pale Foundation base on, then a bright pink eye shadow, for the blush i just go round in circles to create the blushing cheeks, the brighter the better for the doll effect.
I then Blacked my eyebrows- which i regretted after, as they turned out to be wonky :S I guess it made the look extra creepy :)
I then just covered my eye lids in a light blue eyeshadow and then a darker one for the creases.

For the final touches, slowly mark out with eyeliner the jaw marks and then Cover lips in nude lipstick/foundation and just put lipstick on a small area like this to create the doll lip effect.


The final look!



I hope this has inspired you!

Have a super creepy halloween guys! and tweet us some of your halloween make up looks!
