Halloween series: HALLOWEEN MADNESS

I've done so many Halloween looks this month, that I am happy that I don't have to do any of them any more (can you believe that I said that? lol). Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed doing them, but on the other side, they could take me up to 6 hours (with photographing, writing a post, cleaning afterwards etc.). Now it's time to take it easy :).

Today's post will be just a recap of all my Halloween looks/posts I did this month and give you some last minute costume ideas.
Let's start with whole makeup & costume looks. Click on the picture to see a whole post on the look.

     

 

     

     
Which one is your favourite? I love them all equally, I think. 

I also did one quickie. How to look unpresentable, sick, beaten up and definitely not sexy and pretty under 10 minutes:


Halloween manicures:



And I suggest you make this pie for a perfect autumn/Halloween time, or maybe eat it during watching scary Halloween movies in the evening :] (click on the picture to see the recipe).


If you still don't know what to wear on Halloween. You can always go out as Justin Bieber. All you need is a hoodie and sunglasses. Baby, baby, baby never say never!


You can also go crazy and dress casual, don't do any crazy makeup, just cover yourself in glitter and be Edward Cullen! Shine bright like a Vampire! :]
Or be Vanilla face (Bella), put that retarded face on and cover your face with really light foundation.
(this is meant to be a joke, sorry if I insulted any Twilight fans ^^).

If you are not feeling Halloween-y at all, you can always be invisible man/woman and don't show up anywhere.:)

I would really like to thank you for reading those posts and thank you for still talking to me after seeing some crazy looks :P. I thought you would think I'm completely crazy :].
Thank you for taking your time and commenting. Means the world to me <3
Oh, and I managed to blog every single day in October. This is insane :)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!




P.S: I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see your Halloween looks, so if you tweet them to me, post them on my facebook wall or email them to me, I will be the happiest! :)

Halloween series: CHOLA

Finally, I've created the second look! 6 to go! I can do this, I just need to procrastinate less. :)

Anyways, I wanted to do something less scary, but still creative and something challenging. Today I introduce you to my Latina gangster alter ego, Deja Lupe, a chola. Gwen Stefani rocked similar look while back, and I've seen a lot of other celebrities wearing looks inspired by cholas.

Ok, you'll need some "cholastic" music first:


Let's see how Deja Lupe looks like :)

 

Yes, I know my eyebrows are not perfectly covered, it's so hard to cover my thick long eyebrows. I don't know how drag queens do it regularly. It's pain in the ass. Ignore the imperfections, let's focus on that I haven't even recognized myself for a second :D
I covered my eyebrows with regular washable glue stick, NYX concealer and Catrice powder LE Welcome to Las Vegas. Video here: click. And I used my finger to smooth out the glue.

I even did a little tear under my right eye. 
For eyes I used NYX jumbo pencil in Milk, Sleek Chaos palette and Essence liquid eyeliner waterproof. 

I sketched the eyebrows with Catrice eyebrow pencil and went over it with Essence liquid liner.
For face I used Bourjois Bio detox foundation, Bourjois healthy mix concealer and Catrice powder to set everything. I just contoured with Avon's Translucent tan powder.

I was wearing Stradivarius pants, Daichman trainers, white tank top from New Yorker and my grandpa's shirt (I actually wear this shirt in public :)).

I found in my jewellery collection these hoola earrings and put a little scarf on my head. I just teased my hair and pined them with bobby pins.
 Also I added rings:

eBay, DIY, C&A, 3 silver rings I wear all the time. And also added a "gun" necklace.

I covered my lips just with concealer, foundation and powdered them. I outlined them with Artdeco's lip liner number 91.


Are you ready to lean like a chola? :)

Make sure you get scared by my first Halloween look I did here: CLICK, if you haven't seen it yet.
What do you think I'll do next? I think it's time for something scary again :)
