I have had a bit of a hiatus from blogger, I've started my foundation year and it super time consuming so I hope to get back into blogging more soon. For now have an up to date makeup tutorial.
Last year I designed a cheshire cat makeup look and it went okay but I decided to improve it this year, I also posted a tutorial on it here so I thought I'd post a new one as I think I have improved.
These are pictures from actual Halloween, I tried to re-create the look again for this tutorial, still better than last year.
Let's begin~
First I recommend is circle lenses, I used two different lenses from LensVillage
Reviews for blue and yellow
Also I put on foundation and concealer on (mainly on the good side, not much point on the other)
Then I mixed glue and sfx wax, to make the consistency a bit thicker, and placed it where I want the mouth and around my eye.
And then I tore up tissue paper and placed it on, you probably need to put glue over the top to make sure it sticks.
Then leave it to dry and start on the 'good side'.
My eye makeup, simple eye enlarging makeup. I didn't know how to make a 'cat eye' but I think this looks okay. I used liquid liner, faceprint chalk for the white and red under and then red liquid liner for blood.
Then I used the same white chalk to start drawing the mouth. I also prime with eyeshadow.
Then use liquid liner to line the mouth and draw teeth.
Then use liquid liner blood, or you can use fake blood but eyeliner is easier to control and clean off.
Now you can start adding more gore~
Paint over and around the tissue.
I use paint from poundland, these colours are really good, black for depth, purple and blue for bruising and red for blood.
The natural light then disappeared so sorry the rest of the images don't have the nice lighting ;~;.
I restuck a few tissue bits and then remembered I forgot to add the nose and whisker dots. >.< oops
Then I added more red liquid liner to the little cracks on paper still visible.
And the core is finished~.
I also thought I finished the 'good side' however...
Last time I had a 'sad eyebrow' but it kinda failed this time >.< Uguuu It looked better the first time...
So you may have read my last post about my attempt of a Cheshire Cat look for Halloween, here I wanted to show how the makeup looked on the day and how my amazing sister looked~.
We were 'Halloweeny' Alice (in Wonderland) and Cheshire Cat.
I forgot the blood again >.<. Which I don't know how that was possible with Emma having so much but it didn't look too bad. My sister looked amazing though, I should get her to teach me.
We were staying in Robin Hood's Bay so on Halloween night we just walked around frightening people, not really, we got a mixture of reactions to impressed to shocked, it's Halloween, this is the norm.
There were more decorations and people dressing up than I expected, the Halloween atmosphere was definitely there, especially with the usual ghost walk going on that we happened to meet a few times.
Also I actually got scared, I just missed it on camera, but we were walking up the main road and suddenly heard a loud bang, it sounded like a firework that went off on the ground. It came from the direction we were heading to so we weren't sure what to do... We continued and never found what it was. We will never know I guess.
And I'm glad we carried on up the hill because when we were on our way back we found one of the coolest things on Halloween. It was a flashing balloon, a white balloon with a ghost drawing on that had an LED inside. I don't understand why someone would leave that, plus I wanna know where you can get one.
Got no chocolate or sweets but had a nice night, here are some cute pumpkins I appreciated.
Derpy and chibi.
Goth Weekend

Saturday
Took quite a bit to get ready, I admit, so got to Whitby for around 1pm. So one of the first things we did was find a bench to have our pack lunch, it was really nice to see all the people in their lovely outfits, though every time someone walked past I was like "please don't look at me when I eat >.<".
But once we had eaten, we took some pictures ourselves c:
I was planning on going in Shironuri but I still haven't perfected the white foundation routine so I just made myself look as pale as I could. ^-^
-can't find other 'bench' photos-
So then we went and looked around the stalls, there were so many pretty ones, a few very weird too, it was a good job I had no money or I don't know if I would of resisted buying a pair of pretty horns.
My mum bought a headpiece that I shall borrow at some point~.
A picture of my sister, niece and me waiting outside the stalls.
Everyone loved Beau's little skeleton outfit, she's so cute.
Then we went to the arcade later to get a photo in the Da Vinci Booth
I don't know why it's made it portrait on here... But for some reason Beau is a ghost baby, I still really like it though. c:
Sorry I didn't take pictures of other people's outfits, I was too scared to as people. ;~;
But there was so much variety, Victorian, Steam Punk, Dead Disney characters, Carnival, it was amazing.
Sunday
Tried to get to Whitby a bit earlier for the last day, but still got there for lunch time...
I magically found my friend Rachel both days, I searched for other people I knew but found no one else, and awkwardly didn't take a picture with her. ;>.<;
We walked around a lot, this time I actually took some pictures of people (my mum asked).
I like how I captured the contrast of the awesome pirates and the ordinary people behind. ^¬^ ahaa
This pretty lady was standing for some photos so I took a photo myself. I wanted to compliment her outfit but timidness *sigh*.
Plus I wish I had a parasol with my outfit, it was surprisingly sunny.
I don't know exactly what I would call this but it is amazing.
Everything looked hand made, especially the mask, and headpiece.
We then met this sweet couple that loved Beau's cat outfit.
This guys ride was amazing, lucky Beau for sitting in it.
After I took these a saw a sweet lolita, but she dissapeared soon after and I never saw her again. I wanted a photo with her ;>~<; Uguu!
We went to a few shops and got more Da Vinci photos (forgot to take pics) and then went to the beach.
Such a busy day huh Beau?
Pictures we took on the beach.
More 'normal' people :O
My alpaca (I need help thinking of a name...)
loves the beach. uwu tehehee
Showing off my super cute alpaca
(review here)
My wonderful mum <3
Beau with Granny, I believe Emma took this pretty picture.
As you can see it was starting to get dark but still nice weather (so British... ahaa). /).~
I really like this photo~ Beau really likes my alpaca :'3 Super cute.
How not to take a family photo xD ahaa
After the beach, we walked around more, I like walking...
And as it started to get dark and most of the shops were closed, my mum treated us to a Costa hot chocolate.
Great way to end a fun weekend~ ^-^
I look stupid but it was yummy so yay.
How was everyone's Halloween?
And what Costa drinks do people like? I always get hot chocolate so I feel I need to try something new uwu tehee
Halloween is almost upon us and earlier this month I was starting to worry a bit about my makeup. I had an idea, which is Cheshire Cat but in a dark twist of fate he gets attacked and half is mouth is cut open.
The look was so clear in my mind yet I still felt the need to practice.
This was my first attempt, it was okay but I wanted to have an attempt at making the ripped mouth more 3D and realistic.
That was a week or so ago.
The week before Halloween I'm spending at my boyfriends (Yay ❤) so I attempted a second attempt to my makeup the night before I went (resulting in it being a stupid late hour).
Here is a kind of 'tutorial' of this attempt... I filmed it as well so if you would like to check out the video and my channel click this link ~♪
Please look at my newest tutorial for this look here
2. Using Snazaroo white paint and Stargazer white foundation, I attempted to 'blank out' my face. I'm debating whether to keep it like this or stick to my skin tone.
3. Apply PVA glue where the mouth will be
4. Then apply toilet paper
5. Try to add layers... This, as you can see in the video, didn't go well for me so I only had one layer.
6. Once it is decently dry, get tweezers and remove and tare the tissue to create the 'gash'.
7. Work on 'Good Eye'
Purple eyeshadow
And liquid Eyeliner
(and mascara but not in this pic...)
8. 'Bad Eye'
I used a Halloween face pain kit from Poundland... A mixture of purple, red, burgundy and black. Tried to make it look sore and bruised or something but I'm unsure now I think about it...
(also started the nose at some point)
9. Add other details such as the dots where the whiskers would start, and I attempted some kind of fur detail? I was pretty tired when doing this...
10. Back to the mouth.
Use eye liner to draw out your mouth and then fill it in (the 'good half')
Sorry don't have a photo of that
11. Using the same paints as the 'bad eye' I just mixed it inside and out the 'gash', wish I had put a few teeth and more detail but it was just an experiment really.
Finished~
That was it really... Quite simple but I imagine it'll take me a while to get better at this look, which I'll definitely do another tutorial for when I do.
Oh and my cat ears hadn't arrived when I did this so diclonius horns to the rescue~.
