Halloween 2012......Dead Doll Tutorial



Hi Everyone!

This is just a quick post about Halloween 2012...I really wanted to show you guys my costume :D.
I have always loved Dead Doll costumes and makeup ( not the figurines), so for this look I was going for a china doll/dead doll/dead little girl but with a Harlequin/Gothic twist! I had to dress up for work so below is two different days. The first three pictures are of my practice run, which turned out excellent!! But when it came to Halloween morning I didn't give myself enough time so the finished images are more rushed. I hope you enjoy this post anyways and I will happily make a video tutorial for this look if I get enough people wanting it ;)


These are some pictures I took when I was doing a "practice run". The eyebrows covered SOOOO much better in the practice run than on the day I wore this look out (typical)....






 This is a terrible photo in general but my eyebrows started to come away within an hour of being in work :(... lol. These things happen...



I have some black lenses in, in this picture which would have really added to the creepiness if my eyes weren't already dark lol.





This is me with full costume and dry ice bubbling away while posing like a mo fo in the middle of work!! Good Times :D


I have always wanted to try the glue stick method of covering eyebrows so this was in all honesty, my very first attempt!! I was pretty impressed in my practice run but definitely give yourself more than an hour to do this look if you need it to last all day. I also wish I had off stuck with the purple lips rather than the red lips because I think the purple gave a much more Gothic effect.



Thanks for reading!!

The Little Green Soap Company

  Good Morning Everybody! I am back with a little review on a couple of items I purchased a few weeks ago from a lovely little shop on Etsy. The shop name is " The Little Green Soap Company" and they hand make natural  products with a good range to choose from. They are based in the UK and everything is very affordable. A little background to what I was looking for:- Every winter I suffer terribly with very dry, hacked, chapped skin on my finger tips and it can really affect my mood and activities throughout the day. I have mountains of lotions and hand creams but none really ever soften or take the problem away. It usually subsides as summer approaches but come Halloween and the chill starts again, well hello chapped hands. In the past I have bought heavier creams and balms but they always left my hands way too greasy so they were never a practical option, especially when your a mum. As I'm on a bit of a natural and organic switch up at the minute I decided to t...

Welcome 2018

Welcome 2018! I have finally gotten round to this blog thing again lol. I missed it and I'm hoping to make more time for it this year. I've really just been off being a mum and other general life stuff so I don't really have a big dramatic excuse lol. I feel that in my absence a lot have changed, especially with me. I haven't really posted anything in about 2 years and in that time I have grown more and my taste and attitude has changed so as a result I feel that my past posts and content really aren't me anymore and I have picked up quite a few more hobbies along the way, other than just beauty and nails, so I think an overhaul is due on this blog. I intent to keep up with the beauty products that I'm finding interesting at the time but throwing in a few of my new hobbies. I'm currently learning to dress make and crotchet at the minute so we'll see how that goes lol, I  may even show you some bit along my journey :D, along with a few other bits an...

Mac Madness...

Hey Everyone!!                         Well I'm back with a new review of the new Mac Cosmetics goodies I picked up yesterday!! I had a lovely amount of Debenham beauty card points to use up before they expired so of course I had a nosey round Mac..lol. I knew I wanted to try one of the mineralized blushes so I instantly fell in love with "New Romance". It is a soft pink with a hint of peach to it and is very light. In the swatch it is darker but on the cheeks it is just gorgeous. It has a lot of shimmer in it, not big chunks but enough that you could over load on it. This shade is perfect for us paler girls who run away from dark berry or bright purple/pink shades (or maybe that's just me). Saying that, this would still work for darker skin tones as it would work as a highlighter more than a blush. You could also use it over a different shade if you want more colour as it is a very soft, light pink. You can clearly s...
