Still Don't Know What You'll Be For Halloween?

Here are some last minute makeup tutorials and ideas, in case you still don't know what to be tonight! Whether you're going out with the kids to trick-or-treat, or just staying on the couch watching scary movies & handing out candy, don't miss the one day of the year where you can go all out on your makeup and no one will judge you! Yay!
(it's also a convenient compilation of all of my Halloween-related stuff)


Want a colorful look and relatively low-maintenance hair? (all I did was straighten it, make a poof with my bangs, and pop in some colored extensions). Try being a Rave Girl

Using false lashes for your costume? Here's my tutorial on How to Apply False Lashes



Looking to dress up like a pop star? Or maybe just a boy character in general, when you're a girl? Watch my ever-popular, How to Be Justin Bieber For Halloween tutorial: 



My Purple Smokey Eyes for Day and Night tutorial can be used for a variety of costumes, such as a princess, a fairy, a ballerina, a gogo dancer, you name it! If it involves purple or a darker night look, this video has got you covered: 



(I must have a thing for purple smokey eyes, because here's another video I did using them, in case you wanted a different version than the ones showed in the last video!)


Along the same lines as the last video, if you need a darker smokey look, or green makeup, or maybe even to dress up as a Harry Potter character, check out my Slytherin Makeup Tutorial



Want to be a doll (either creepy or cute!) for Halloween? Here's my Dainty Dollface Face of the Day- use these products to give yourself large, doll-like eyes and facial features!



I think that's all I can think of for Halloween-related videos! I hope this helped some of you out if you still didn't know how to do your makeup for later tonight! Have a Happy and Safe Halloween! Keep an eye out for my Thirsty Thursday blogpost later tonight, and possibly the upload of a video to at least one of my channels!

Riri Hearts MAC Fall Collection- Swatches


I recently uploaded my unboxing haul of MAC's Riri Hearts MAC Fall Collection, designed and inspired by my lady crush, Rihanna. 

In the video I show some swatches, but I thought I would also post some of the swatch pictures on my blog so you can get a closer look and in slightly higher def than the video! Enjoy!

My order came in 2 separate boxes, and I was super excited for both of them. Here's an alternative thumbnail shot that I didn't end up using.

Beautiful rose gold packaging.

Swatches from left to right: MAC Sweetie Luster lipstick (not part of this collection, but it was in the haul video), Riri Woo Retro Matte Lipstick, Riri Woo Lipglass 

Here's a look I created with the things I got from this collection! My bronzer is Too Faced Bronzed & Poreless, and my blush is MAC Peaches. Honestly don't remember what lip products I used....they may or may not be from this collection? It looks like the Riri Woo Lipglass though..hm...


Daytime smokey eye look created with Smoked Cocoa palette and some white eyeliner by elf!

I really love this look- should I do a tutorial?


Hope you all enjoyed the swatches! I had a lot of fun playing around with what I got to create the look you see in the last few pictures. Remember to watch my video for more information and reviews and swatches, and subscribe to my channel for more tutorials, hauls, and reviews!

Purple Smokey Eyes Tutorial- Products & Pictures!

 Purple Smokey Eyes- Look #2, more suitable for night! (eyes open and shut)

Hey viewers!
If you're here you probably just watched my Purple Smokey Eyes tutorial! It features two looks in one video- the first is more daytime appropriate and uses more drugstore products, and the second one is more suitable for nighttime and going out (that kind of look was requested by my cousin Sandi!) and uses more high-end products. Let me know how you liked it, pretty please, and if I should do more 2-in-1 videos in the future- they're really fun to do but take forever to edit!

Anyways, as promised, below will be the products used:

Clinique Powder Blush in Smoldering Plum
