Hey there and Happy Halloween weekend! Today I have a look that was inspired by pumpkins! I love pumpkin carving and I'm going to be carving on this weekend and I'm super excited!!

As expected, this is an orange look, and I used my new Milani eyeshadow, which I love! I'm definitely going to buy some more at some point.

I hope you enjoy this and that you're feeling super spooky this weekend!

First of all I used Peach Smoothie from Makeup Geek as my transition colour because it's such a light shade.

Then I used Substitute For Love from the Zoeva Cocoa Blend palette just a little bit below this to add some depth.

To brighten the orange tones, I put LOL by NYX all through the crease.

On my lid I put Bella Mandarin all over and blended it up into the LOL shade.

With a thick pencil brush I used Faint from the Naked Basics palette.

On the outer corner, up along the tape so it creates a sharp line, I blended in Beans Are White.

I did a really long wing because as you shall see...

I put 4 round face glitters from PS from Primark. You can always do this with eyeliner to create little dots, but I had these so I decided I'd use them!

I then blended Faint along my lower lashline.

And there we are!

On my lips I used one of the new NYX Liquid Suede's in Alien, it's a gorgeous black, I love it! (we all know I love them anyway haha)

I hope you enjoyed this post, and that it's got you in the mood for Halloween! This is obviously a more wearable look, but I will be doing a few looks over the weekend, one of them being my look for my costume, so keep an eye out!

Hey there! Today I've got a maroon eye look, perfect for the Autumn! Autumn/Winter is my favourite time of year and I'm so excited to come up with more deep eye looks as that's what I enjoy doing. This whole look is using the Sleek Vintage Romance palette.

I first used Propose In Prague in my crease and slightly upwards. This shade confused me a little as it looks like a dark mustard but then it came out with a bit of red? Who knows?

I deepened it up with A Vow In Venice.

All over the lid I used Honeymoon in Hollywood, which was the whole reason I bought this palette because I just fell in love with this shade.

I put a tiny bit of Marry In Mote Carlo over the top of that, just a thin layer though.

Finally, I used Love In London in the outer corner and up the wing a bit.

And I added a wing before peeling the tape off.

I used Bliss In Barcelona to create a bit of a contrast, but I didn't want a complete clash of colours with this.

I then added my fave Ardell Demi Wispies and mascara.

On my lips I used a brown eyeliner and then a 99p matte lipstick off eBay. Literally type in "liquid lipstick" and they will come up in many colours. This is the shade 33.

Hello!

Here I have the first in a new series that I've planned, which is makeup inspired by the 4 Elements: Fire, Water, Earth and Air.

Today I am bringing you Fire!

But not literally, because that would be dangerous...

Firstly I used Beverly from Colourpop in my crease.

Then I went in with Substitute For Love from the Zoeva Cocoa Blend Palette.

On a thick pencil brush, I took Freshly Toasted from the same palette and really worked that just into the crease line, focusing more on the outer quarter.

I used Fancy from the Makeup Revolution Chocolate Vice palette all over the lid.

And just in the centre of my lid, I used Require from that palette.

I did my eyeliner as normal, but on the top, I took the Elf Cream Eyeliner in Golden and drew a thin line above that eyeliner. Don't worry if you cover up too much of the black because you can always go over the top again to straighten the line out.

After my waterline liner, I put Freshly Toasted underneath.

Then I lightly went over that with the Collection Glam Crystals in Funk.

You can't really see here, but in my inner corner, I put a bit of Habit from the Chocolate Vice Palette.

And in the first inner quarter on my lower lashline I put a bit of Persuade there too. This would be so much easier if I had the confidence to start a YouTube...

As my brow bone highlight, I took the Essence Eyeshadow in 01 Snowflake, kinda to resemble ash coming from the fire. Seriously though, get this eyeshadow, it's only £1 and it's crazily pigmented!

On my lips I used Androgony by Jeffree Star.

I hope you enjoyed this look, and keep an eye out for future posts in this series!

Hello! Today, as promised, I have a look using the Makeup Revolution Chocolate Vice Palette. Now that it is September, I am all about Autumn looks, as Autumn/Winter is my favourite time of year!! This look is using only 3 eyeshadows, but I'm sure I will have more looks to come with this palette.

In my crease, I went in with Maleficence from the palette, and blended it upwards to graduate the colour. I feel like this is a good dupe for my favourite Substitute For Love!!

To deepen that up, I used Treat from the palette just under where I blended the original colour up. I feel like these two are a really good match together.

Then I put Crave all over my lid and made sure it was blended in my crease.

I put eyeliner on my lower waterline and then ran Treat under that to smoke it out.

On my lips I used the NYX Liquid Suede in Cherry Skies.

Thank you for reading and I will see you next time!
