Why're you dressed so scary?

For makeup I used what I already had at home because well when else will you use blood and white pastey face paint right? Might as well save up for a burger - so much more worth it. 

List of make up used: 

1. Sweet recipe - baby choux base 

2. Laneige snow BB soothing cushion in no .13 true beige

3. Black eye shadow

4. Sleek flushed 935 blush

5. Topshop matte lip bullet in get me bodied 

6. Mistine Super black fixed eyeliner

7. Makeup forever Fared à Paupières eye shadow

8. Fake eyelashes

9. Marykayatplay shadow & liner crayon iced lilac

10. Red food colouring 

TIP:

Mixed the lip bullet, blush and eyeshadows to create the flesh-like effect. Basically follow the natural shadows around your collar bones. I hunched and tensed to get my collarbones more defined and get the shadows in there. Used the base to highlight the bones. 

For the eyes, I used the eyeshadows and blush. Creating a gradient from black to burgundy. Lined the bottom of my eyes with marykay's eyeliner and drew in the bottom with black liquid eyeliner. And stuck on fake lashes. 

Killer smile: lip bullet smudged out and tapped black shadow on the inner parts of my lip. Black eyeliner to draw stitches (smile like a killer and follow the curve of your smile) and go over with blush as though blood is oozing from the stitches. 

Added red food colouring on TOP of the makeup because my skin is so sensitive and it still itched some parts of the night (cries) at least I looked scary. 

Totally in love with burgundy and purple shades - perfect for autumn and the best shade for flesh and blood and bruises. 

 Last Monday's trip to town to get some burgers with my friend Alison and unintentionally exploring the area because we got lost. Stumbled into a restaurant / bar with the most gorgeous sitting area outside with fountains and of course, a view of the glass house the bar is in. I think I might have an idea where to have my birthday (fingers crossed it wont be full!)

I'm not sure if it was because we were hungry, but literally every burger on the menu sounded so scrumptious. In the end, I had the Bronut and an oreo milkshake, Alison had the El Diablo, and we shared some dirty fries. The El Diablo tasted quite like tacos in a burger, which was really good - but surprisingly really spicy too. The Bronut was a combination of food from the heavens - bacon, peanut butter and jam, glazed donuts, and cheeseburger. It was truly living the dream having all my favourites in one. I wonder why I've never tried to make it.

Burgerfest had the sickest decor and they even had a sega games room and a ping pong dome, which we totally would have tried out if we were not so into catching up. But definitely a place to hang out and be unhealthy (well you could hit a few ping pong balls and burn some calories after I guess).

Wearing shorts and light coats to make full use of autumn, especially those few sunny days.

Dressing up the most basic outfit with structured outerwear.
