HALLOWEEN - ALEX DELARGE INSPIRED

SOURCE
Good film and..... the lashes. Such an iconic character. 
A.J being erm A.J, No serious model face.
KEY PRODUCTS:
SPIKY LONG PAIR OF FALSE EYELASHES
BLACK EYELINER

Hey guys, something a bit fun! You might remember A.J from last year in his epic Halloween get up
A.J was wearing really formal clothes for a night out anyway, so we decided to go all Alex DeLarge. I've intensified the eyes a bit more with black eyeliner.
This could be a really good Halloween costume idea for anyone who doesn't want to look gory or zombie-esque. Super simple :)

HALLOWEEN - FAIRY DUST

KEY PRODUCTS:
MAC EYE-SHADOW - CARBON AND PASSIONATE
LA FEMME BLUSH -  CORAL SPICE
MAC 3D SILVER GLITTER DUPE BY STARGAZER
MAC MIXING MEDIUM

Hey guys, another Halloween make-up I did on Monday.
My flatmate J.G. wanted a make-up that incorporated glitter but she didn't want to look too theatrical.
Her costume (tutu, wings and vest) wasn't really tied to an obvious theme so I decided to go down a fairy 'girly' route to suit her style/personality. 
This was very simple to achieve and would compliment costumes such as fairies or princesses :)

REINDEER RETURNS

 I let A.J paint around the lower eyelash area as his eyes were twitching like crazy!
Smile?
I was a Christmas pudding, will show you the costume at some point
 Me in the 'reindeer' costume. 
Its actually an official Charmin bear costume without the 'fat' suit. My mum D.I.Y'd off the logo with the print patch.
Ta-da!
The make-up was inspired by my 2009 version of a reindeer and I prefer this version so much more. With A.J's I focused more on blurring out the edges and lots of blending to keep everything looking more realistic (2009 one was just way too harsh).
The black nose tip isn't perfect but overall I'm quite happy with my attempt. 

P.S we were off to our colleges Christmas party. It didn't go quite according to plan as I OD on the alcohol BIG TIME and I had the worst night of my life (pretty much passed out in the toilets/couldn't walk/puking non stop/manager at the club thought I'd been spiked).
So just a reminder to you all to drink responsibly (sure you all do anyway) and I'm currently put off for life now (I really mean it).

Thank-you A.J for looking after me!!!
