[Tried & Tested] Are You Ready For Halloween?

Hi Huneybees,

Halloween weekend is happening in a couple of hours and are you ready for it? I will be in New Zealand by then, but if you are like me, always looking to scare people off with makeup, you have got to check out these amazing creamy lipsticks from SHEENe Cosmetics!

The lovely people from SHEENe Cosmetics have given me the lovely rainbow colours to play with. I was a little skeptical at first, thinking the colours might stain my lips, especially wary of the black one. But when I I tried each colour on my lips, I simply had to wipe my lips off with a tissue, the colours would come off. 

From Top Left: N1, Y1, G1
From Bottom Left: S1, V2, K1

However, that would also mean these are not the long wearing type of lipstick, so be prepared and have the lipstick of your choice in your bags. Also, though the lipsticks were said to be matte, you can see the shine they are giving off on my arm swatch-ing above. Not complaining as I like my lips to have a little shine, there's always a sense of plumped lips with shine. Hehehe.

So, here's me trying out the different lipsticks with a plain nude look. You can already see the effect of each lipstick colour. With the right kind of hair colour or wig and eyeshadows, you are definitely ready to portray the scary figure you want to...

Yellow Y1 is a soft light colour for the psychedelic bananas. You might look a little washed out, so be sure to amp up on the eyes.

Green G1 just simply reminds me of Poison Ivy, don't forget the sexy cat eyes!

Light Blue S1 is so cool, play a sexy little Dr. Freeze this Halloween!

Purple V2 reminds me of a nymph/faerie. Wear more glittery eyeshadows and step out with the light wings and magic wand of yours to play the part!

This has got to be my favourite colour. It's Black K1, I know it''s a little extreme, but if you want to play an evil character or even a mime face, this is definitely a must have.

Of course, these are just some of the colours I picked out which I think are more playful, there are also the more "normal"colours for your everyday lip-wearing. Like this Beige N1 that I have below, you are definitely set to go off for work in this look!

 

So, have fun and have a great Halloween!

[Makeup Tutorial] Looking like Marilyn Monroe with M.A.C.

As you guys know, I have recently acquired the M.A.C. Marilyn Monroe collection. Wana look like Marilyn Monroe? Here's my step by step on how to achieve the look. (Psst, this look was done on my way to out to town in the car. Simple as ABC!)

Step 1. After foundation and powder, draw you brows as usual and apply a light beige eyeshadow (that's close to your skin colour) all over the lid.

Step 2. On the out corner of the lid, draw a V inwards and up, along your eyeball, stopping mid lid. To create a deeper set of eyes.

Step 3: Using a beige eyeliner, draw a line on your lower waterline.

Step 4: Draw a wing tipped eyeline. Try to stick as close to the lashes as possible.

Just a thin line will do.

Step 5: Apply mascara of false lashes and (here comes the difficult part when the car is on the move) using a red lip pencil, shape your lips and fill it in.

Step 6: Apply your red lipstick and dab a little gloss in the middle of lips for the extra pout.

Step 7: Finish off with a light dab of blusher and a little contouring if you like.

Get a blonde wig and dip a little sexy mole on your cheek for your Marilyn Monroe impersonation... :X

XOXO,
Christina aka Huney

[Get The Look] All Hallow's Day Wig

Hi Huneybees,

How was Halloween? I had so much fun with the 987fm crew at their RSVP party. It took me roughly 2 hours just to get ready. Everything was a mess man! I had to re-do my makeup several times just to get the look that i wanted.

 

Check out the cool eyelashes that I got like 9 months ago for this event.

So here's how I got the wig on:

 

First, if you have long hair like me. Pleat them all up.
Otherwise, jump straight to step 2.

 

Step 2: Pin you tail of hair on top of head. Keep it as close to head as possible.

 

The next step might just make ya look silly.
Simply just net it, so that no little black strands of hair start showing.

 

Last and final, wear the wig, pin it into place, do your makeup, accessorize and go party!

 

I bought this last minute at a Indian store just a few blocks away from my house. Sticker Henna prints. Cool ya?

 

Here's the final look. A very proud peacock.
I even got myself a pair of Gold Melissa Magic.
