Halloween makeup tutorial: Purple Glam Skull

Purple Glam Skull Makeup

*adlinks

This year I’m super excited for Halloween makeup. Last year I challenged myself with this blue skull makeup and this Halloween look with fake blood. This year I’m back with another skull look – because it’s just not a Halloween without one. (And yes, I’m making this black trash bag background a thing.)

This purple glam skull is pretty, but still a bit scary. At least I managed to scare some people when I opened the door wearing this. This look is perfect for anyone, who wants to feel glamorous, but still make an effort for Halloween. Spoiler alert, that’s me.  Can’t feel anything, but glamorous wearing diamonds and glitter on my face.

Obviously you can also tone this look down by skipping the diamonds and the glitter on the lips. I actually liked this look both ways.

This eye look is also what makes this look glamorous. I did a simple halo eye using blue eyeshadow and gold on the center of the lid and in the inner corners. I also added small diamonds in my fake lashes to make them fit this look perfectly. Side note: the lashes look dirty, because I added mascara to them to make them more suited to this look.

The hardest part of this look is teeth. At least it takes some detailing work and time. You can always skip them or just create black lines (like below, the first picture in the tutorial). But I don’t think perfect teeth are important in this look. If they resemble teeth, that’s good enough.

Below is my simple skull teeth tutorial from year before.

Pumpkins & big news

A while I back I visited a pumpkin patch. It has been on my bucket list for quite some time now, so I’m happy I found one near me. Kurpitsakauppa.com is actually probably the only pumpkin patch in Helsinki metropolitan area. I went there mostly for the cozy atmosphere, but also for the cute Fall photos.

Bigger news than visiting a pumpkin patch  is that we are moving soon. Soon we’ll pack everything we own in boxes and turn a new chapter in our lives in a new home.  Luckily we’re not moving far – we’ll still have the same postal code.

Our new apartment is lovely. It has an amazing view to the sea and park from the fourth floor. Right now we’re living at first floor, where I’m watching people catch their buses or sit by the cafe right in front of our home. We also get the big balcony we’ve been dreaming about. Actually, we get two balconies. Yes, I know, that’s crazy.

It’s so exciting. I think the first thing I’ll do when we move is unpack all the Christmas decorations and get ready for spending our first Christmas in our new apartment. I also look forward to waking up to beautiful sunsets. Or going out the door straight to the park for a run. Or drinking my first cup of coffee in the open plan kitchen. All of it.

I haven’t really talked about my life lately. To be honest, Fall has been quite tough. Moving to a wonderful new apartment is a good thing and I very much look forward to it.

How is your Fall going?
