Halloween 2014: Pretty Woodland Creature

Beautiful whimsy and colorful delight will break the darkness on your scary night!

 Apply a light foundation, then apply a white cream makeup to the high points of your face (brow bone, top of the nose, top of the cheek bones, along the jawline, chin, and cupids bow). Blend out the edges, but not the center to keep the white vibrant!

 Contour areas that you want to seem more sunken in (hollows of the cheeks, under the jaw, and on the temple)

 Using a pink shadow, sweep over the entire lid slightly past the brow. Bring the color down towards the nose above and underneath the eye and fill the area in. Now fill in your brow with the pink as well. No need to be overly neat just try to keep it fresh and pretty.

 Using a pale pink blush, a fluffy round brush onto the apples of the cheeks and the tip of the nose. Don't sweep or pull the brush. You want to have a sweet doll like blush to the skin.

 Contour around the cheeks with a deep purple shadow sweeping upwards. Keep it circular in shape. contour down the nose and chin in a more pointed shape.

Press a bit more of that pink blush on the apples of the cheeks if you lost some of the color from the contour.

 Line the water line with a white pencil liner and press a deep purple shadow on the outer half of the upper and lower lash lines in a winged shape and add some mascara. (Fell free to add lashes! My eyes just weren't having it! Gotta love allergies!)

And now for the fun part...

 With a green face paint, begin to make vine like shapes. Don't over complicate it, it's really just a bunch of connected squiggly lines, swirls and heart shapes! Just don't go overboard and cluster them too much.

Using a white shadow, highlight inside the leaves and some of the vines. Anywhere you like really!

 Now with a gray shadow deepen the under side of the leaves and add shadow underneath the vines to make them look like they are jumping right off of your skin! Just try to make sure that you only shade in one direction. so if you choose to shade underneath stay underneath from the top of the forehead all the way down the neck.

Now lightly add a bit of light pink matte lipstick to the center of the lips and blend out.. And you guessed it!

YOU'RE DONE!

 Hope everyone likes this! It's always fun to do something a little bit different and unique on Halloween rather than something scary! I also think the vines help make my forehead look a little smaller! PLUS! Ha! 

Thank you so much for reading, and as always if you try this out SEND ME A PICTURE! I would LOVE to see it!
