Halloween Makeup By MAC

Recently I was lucky enough to be part of a training day for MAC makeup artists to practice their theatre makeup. Basically me and a bunch of other girls were chosen to be their models for the day while they turned us into crazy characters, my character was an evil clown – which worried me slightly as I’m beyond terrified of clowns. However it turned out amazingly well and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day. I must say, my makeup artist for the day was extremely talented – jel. I wish I could do makeup like this.
 
It took three hours to make me look this evil!
 

The inspiration for the look

 The pamper chair, I was so exited when I saw this!
 
Halfway through having my makeup done, they used tissue paper to create the scary smile.
 
Apologies for the small pictures, blogger won’t allow me to make them bigger for some reason. Damn you technology! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post. How are you wearing your makeup this Halloween?

Guess Who's Back!

Hi Everybody!
So you may or may not have noticed my absence from the world of blogging recently. It’s been a little over a month since my last post and I must say I have missed my little space on the internet. The reason I’ve not had a lot of time to share my thoughts lately is because I’ve made an exiting trip to a different country – the U.A.E to be exact. I’m currently in Dubai working for a little while and I’ve been a busy bee since arriving three weeks ago. My time here so far has consisted mainly of settling in and going to work, with a few nice meals and days out thrown in there for good measure!

So now I’m all unpacked and settled in I have more time to dedicate to my beloved blog, which I’m very happy about as I have lots to share with you - new products that I’ve been loving, days out and another exiting project that I have in the pipeline which I can’t wait to tell you all about so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for that one! My lovely boyfriend also got me the best present ever in the form of a DSLR camera, what do you think of my snaps? Im so exited to use it for my blog and youtube videos, makeup tutorials here I come!
Hope you enjoyed this brief update, as you can tell there is a lot more to look forward to on my beauty station before the year is out, watch this space...
