Just toying around, since I’m not likely to have plans for Halloween, but I haven’t done crazy makeup for it this year. Sorry for the bad lighting–it’s early and DIM here, and my camera hates it. I have a few pet peeves with this look-mainly with the leaves. I’d like to color in my own next time, so it will be easier to cut tiny ones, and so that I can use more yellow-greens in the veining. The brows in this feel too dark and heavy to me. Lighter leaves would help.

Still toying with ideas for an upcoming shoot…. Overall, I like the first batch better—I think I may try using MUFE Flash Creams rather than OCC Lip Tars to do the larger paint-splatter/polka-dot effect(And I should DEFINITELY mix them more–my yellow is a teeny bit separated, so those dots look a bit runny and sheer). You can already see these starting to bleed, if you look closely, so it won’t bode well for my poor model. The boyfriend teased me because the pink and green look looks like we could pose it with a toy dinosaur.
I am having ENTIRELY too much fun having an excuse to do these.
