Fright night is here! Although I'm a big fan of fancy dress, I'm getting a bit bored of the usual blood and gore of Halloween makeup. For once, I just want to look NICE, y'know? Like somewhere in between a Mean Girls playboy bunny, and Lindsey Lohan's Bride of Frankenstein.

So I came up with a red-eyed look which is dramatic but still very different from my everyday going out look. The good news is that it's EASY PEASY. All you need is a lipstick and a  fluffy brush to blend. 

Check out the video for the full how-to and let me know what you think!







Stuff I used

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Black Metal Dahlia - I actually picked this up in New York but the original Black Dahlia is here

Youtube Video: Halloween Makeup Tutorial - Blood Red Eyes & Lips



So I'm trying to start uploading more stuff to YouTube but it just takes foreverrrr. I love filming the videos but editing my rambles is slightly more time consuming. 

In case you missed it, I uploaded a little video about the BEST Friday afternoon I've had in a long time. I covered the trifecta that is clothes, hair AND makeup!

Oh yeah, and jumpsuits. There's a bit of a rant about jumpsuits too. ALL the bases covered.....









Any of these catch your eye? Whaddya think of my blowdry? Tweet me your thoughts @FaceValueBlog or send me a comment on Facebook!

Emily Ratajkowski WAYF Interview And Makeup Tutorial

It's here! My second proper YouTube video! I got a lot of lovely comments on my What I Wore To The Wedding post last week and a lot of people had been asking me about how I did my nails.

Here's the secret - it's actually really easy! DONT TELL ANYONE. There is actually a more complex way to do ombre nails properly but if you're a nail art novice or if you only have 10 minutes then THIS is the method for you. 

All you need is two nail polishes and a piece of sponge.

The rest.... is all in this video! It's very short, less than 5 minutes - so take a look!
