FrightFest Halloween Looks

For the FrightFest Media Preview, I dressed up as Medusa. Thanks to Singapore Flyer, I was awarded the Best Dressed (also coz alot did not dress up...). So here's a short feature on how I made Medusa come alive....

Makeup was mainly focussed on using different tones of green and gold. To create the snake skin effect, I dabbed eyeshadow over my face using stockings. Give your eyebrows a defined arc and eyeliner has to be pulled back for the snakey eye effect.

Let's look at the hair.

If I had more time I would have tried to poof my hair more to give it more volume so that I can create a more princess style hair. I didn't have much time, so I only went to Daiso to get more hair volume aiding "gadgets".

This is a volume bun. Add it to you usual bun for the extra volume.

More hair volume.

And then, I had 4 strands of these ponytails going round my bun to act as more volume as well as a stand for me to hold the little rubber snakes.

These rubber snakes took me a week to locate. Apparently these childhood toys are pretty much gone....

Paired with chunky accessories, maxi dress and sandals. I was pretty much done.

And then, of course I had to have snake skin nails too. But I guess I overdid with the glitter polish? Can you see the snake scale pattern?

So, I shall end the post with more photos of the characters I met at the FrightFest. Maybe you guys will get some inspiration for your Halloween dress up?

I hope this post helps. Show me your Halloween looks ya?

XOXO,

Halloween Look - Zombified with Bursting Veins

I was looking for ideas to create the scariest Halloween look and I stumbled upon this amazing look that was featured in M.A.C.'s Halloween Face Off Challenge with Snooki. The 2 makeup artists won the challenge and I found it super scary!

 

The whole idea behind this concept is to create a scary and eerie feel when closing the model's eyes. She must look as though she had no pupil and without the help of crazy hurtful contact lenses, I tried to replicate the look.

Mine's not as scary as what the makeup artists have done. But I think I created my own scary zombified look. This is the result of my sleepless nights! Wahahahahahaahaha!

 

So here's a video on how I created the look and hope you guys can learn a trick or 2. What's your Halloween idea this year?

XOXO,

Why Liddat?!

OMG! Nothing happened to me. I've been off Colour Huney for a couple of months not because I havn't been working but because there's a tech glitch. I've been posting blog posts but have no idea why they have not been appearing on the blog.

Imagine my frustrations all these months! I will try to re-post the goodies that I've wrote. I want to say sorry to all of my readers, sponsors, media friends. Don't worry. The problem is fixed is Colour Huney is back online! WOOTS!!!


XOXO, Christina aka Huney

Etude House Season 2 Store @ Wisma Atria

On National Day - 09 Aug 2012, Etude House at Wisma Atria reopens after a major face lift. Called Season 2 store, not only doesit have the newest products, the prices are better and they even offer the latest Makeup trends. That day, goodies were given away as well as makeover sessions. The top giveaway would be the SHINee autographed CD and fans queued since 6am.

The store opened at 9am and there was already a huge crowd. Too bad, I wasn't the lucky few to get the CD, but a very nice fan let me take a photo of her "prize".

*Scream scream scream!!!!*

 

Minho was there for the opening too! :X

Wah pretty glass figurines dancing under the chandelier. So pretty...

I love the new store concept. It's so clean and tidy, even though there's lesser pink, I still feel a lot like a princess in there.

Psst, that's Yu Xi, I've been buying items from her at Etude House. Her service is great! Not only does she share tips, I will always ask her to contact me when there's new collection. :)

WAH! Nail polishes! I wan them all!

A bunch of pretty Korean ladies appeared in black and walked into the stores. For awhile, everyone in the queue were asking which Kpop band are they. Even Etude House's makeup artists look so good!

OMG! I wan this dressing table!





OK! Let's take a look at my purchases. Miminum spending already.  >.<|||

Left: Precious Mineral Sun BB Cream (With additional sponge applicator), 2 bottles of Mascara Remover, Pale Blue with Multi Coloured Glitter Nail Polish, Tear Eyeliner (#4 Sunny Teardrops), Sweet 7 Way Buffer for Nails, Proof 10 Liquid Liner ( OR201), Under Lash False Lashes.

The water bottle was a gift for spending over $60.

The eye-liner is a beautiful orange gold tinge that can brighten the eyelids or even add that little sparkle when you blink...

I use this for undereye lining, not as strong as a white liner, but can still widen eyes...

The BB Cream is very much like their Precious Mineral BB Cream, except this has a SPF 50+/PA+++ with Whitening, Anti-Wrinkle, Anti-Darkening formula. It's easy to blend and keeps me protected under the sun with its waterproof formula!

Being part of the first 89 customer giveaway, I received a Makeup Bag upon purchase! Inside, there was not only samples, there was also a travel set, just nice for my upcoming trip....
