Last Minute Halloween Makeup Ideas

So I was sat watching Hocus Pocus when I realised I still didn't have an idea for what I wanted to be for Halloween, so I decided to try some easy ideas and thought I'd share them with you! I've decided what I'm going as for a party, so I'll probably end up using one of these on Halloween when having a movie night with my friends!

I first did a half skeleton face, It's really simple and only took around half an hour to get looking good!

Alternatively, I did this skeleton face on my friend which was also super simple to do!

I attempted to do the Corpse Bride, this is actually pretty simple to do, but requires more time and more artistic skill (which I lack!!)

For these three ideas, I only used black, white and pink face paint! To get the blue for the corpse bride just mix black and white!
Tweet me a picture on @niallantic if you recreate any of these!
I hope this was helpful!

America Haul | Makeup

Hey guys! As you know I recently went to Florida on holiday and of course I did A LOT of shopping and I wanted to share everything I got with you!

I posted a video on my youtube channel HERE of the clothes I bought, and decided to post beauty and makeup purchases here! This was so you could all see what the clothes looked like on, and I enjoy writing about makeup!

I did a haul in sephora, but also went to mac and target!

I saw these two elf products on sale so decided to give them a try! I'm thinking about doing a first impression post on them!

I re purchased porefessional as it is cheaper to buy in america than here, and I'm getting towards the end of the one I have now. I also purchased roller lash as I'd tried it just before going away and fell in love with it which is a big thing for me when it comes to mascaras.

I purchased Viva Glam and the Brick lip liner for my prom which you can see pictures of here, and while I was in mac I couldn't leave without picking up Velvet Teddy.

I decided to pick up an Urban Decay Primer Potion and also got a free Nars lipgloss in sephora.

I purchased a covergirl mascara and a smashbox trio (Parfait, Amethyst and Aubergine)

I'm so happy with everything I picked up and I will amke sure to update you when I use these products and what I think about them.

Check out my video of my clothing haul!

What are some of your favourite makeup products at the moment?

Prom 2015

Hello guys! I'm back from holiday and on Tuesday 7th July we had our Prom.

It was such an amazing night, much better than I thought it would be and it really was amazing to see everyone dressed up and happy! Everyone looked so amazing!

For the night I did my hair and makeup myself and I was so happy with how it turned out!

My dress was blue and lacy and I don't think I've ever been this in love with something, I felt like a princess all night!

For travel, a group of 50 of us hired a red bus and it was sooo cute!!

Now that I'm home from holiday I'm going to start blogging again, I missed it sooo much while I was away so I'm excited to get back into it! I also vlogged while I was away which I'm hoping to get up asap!

5sos, Ariana, Summer | VLOG

Hi guys, so exams are officially OVER!

Which means today is the first day of my 12 week summer (that is double than we usually get so I am super excited).

I've vlogged a few bits this week so go check it out!

Things I Want To Do This Summer

This blog idea is inspired from Tanya Burr's recent post!

When all my exams are finished I have a 12 week summer and I could not be anymore excited! I'm going to Florida for two weeks but after that I have so much time to plan things with my friends!

I liked the idea of planning a summer 'want' list, and I have decided that anything that gets put on my list, will be blogged about when it happens, like a check list!

Go on picnics; during the summer we tend to go on picnics all the time and they're usually my favourite things to do in the afternoon. What makes it better is knowing we don't have to be anywhere and we can stay out all through the evening!

Have a Harry Potter/Disney Marathon; film marathons are one of my favourite things to do, and wheat better time to do it than on the rainy days in summer?

Have a Coachella/Festival themed party; I want to plan a party with my friends where we get dressed up festival themed and have a chill party.

Go on spontaneous adventures; 'adventures' is a bit chliche, but all I mean by this is a spontaneous decision to do something, whatever it is, as it's always my favourite.

Eat healthier; it's always easier to eat healthier in the summer, so I'm going to do this and try to continue it throughout the rest of the year.

this next one is going to be the cringiest of all but we'll just go with it,

Make Memories; after this summer, a few of us will be going in 'different directions' as they say, so I want to make as many memories as possible, and record them all down on my blog!

If you want to be updated straight away, then follow me on my social media's!

Let me know if any of you are doing something like this in the comments! I think this may be my last proper post until I'm finished with exams so I'll be updating you then! Good luck to anyone sitting any in the next few weeks!

GRWM | get together vs party | Part Two

Hello everyone! As I said in Part One we've now hit the birthday season in our friendship group, meaning I had two different evenings to get ready for so I thought I'd show you the type of outfits/makeup I wear to evening 'get togethers' and parties.

This is Part Two, showing you a party look!

Last night we had a garden party for my friends birthday, the weather held up for us for about 4 hours so it was really fun to be outside!

To start off I used the simple face wash.

I then washed and curled my hair.

I then did my usual makeup routine. I also used the rimmel stay matte powder, but i did not photograph it as it has smashed!

This time adding in 3 eyeshadows from the BarryM Natural Glow Palette 2

Using these brushes to apply everything

After I added this small elephant choker from etsy

And applied the Perrie Collection lipstick and used my Si Armani perfume.

I didn't get good quality makeup pictures as I was getting ready with friends and we were running a bit late but here is the best 'close up'.

I wore a black playsuit from River Island and a kimono from H&M and paired it with black Converse. I also tied my hair up into a 'half up, half down' bun.

I hope you enjoyed this two part post and hopefully it gave you some outfit ideas!

GRWM | get together vs party | Part One

Hello everyone! It's been over a month since I last posted but as you all know I've been busy revising and getting ready for exams which start in about three weeks (scary)

Apparently we've now hit the birthday season in our friendship group, and this weekend I had two different evenings to get ready for so I thought I'd show you the type of outfits/makeup I wear to evening 'get togethers' and parties.
This is Part One, the second part will be up tomorrow!

On friday we all went to my friends to celebrate their birthday, and it was more of a 'chill, eat loads of food evening'.

As I had been at school that day, I decided to re do all my makeup, so i started by removing it and washing my face.

After this I just pretty much re did my makeup exactly the same,

I did add Dreamy from the Undress Me Too MUA palette

(I was thinking of doing a review of this so comment below if you'd like one)

I used these brushes when applying everything

I used the BarryM 121 and my Katy Perry perfume

I wore a simple checked dress and put my hair in a 'half up half down' bun

My January/February Beauty Favourites

Hello everyone! I thought I'd do a favourites post today and keep it specifically to beauty!

Twilight Woods triple moisture body cream

My first favourite is the Bath & BodyWorks Twilight Woods body cream. I purchased this when I was in Florida last summer. I hadn't used it until recently as I class it as more of a winter scent, and I love it. It's a great body cream and if i remember correctly it was an amazing price for the size! On the back of the product it describes the smell as 'a hypnotic blend of apricot nectar, mimosa petals,and tuscan cypress inspired by the warmth of woods at twilight'.

Zoeva Luxe Sheer Cheek//Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

Recently my skin had a bad turn and using a brush to apply foundation was making it look worse, but the Real Techniques sponge covered it so well! It has been my life saver the past three weeks! I have also loved using the Zoeva brush to apply bronzer.

(My brushes/sponge are all due for a wash tonight sorry about that)

Benefit's Hoola Bronzer

I have been loving the hoola bronzer since I purchased it last summer but recently I've been using it every day. It gives off such a nice bronzed look if you apply a small amount of product which I love.

Tanya Burr Nail polish in the colour Penguin Chic

I own a few of the Tanya Burr and I have completely fallen in love with this colour. It comes out grey with a purple undertone.

Benefit's They're Real Mascara

I'm pretty sure everyone has tried this product so I'm not going to write much about it, just that I have fallen back in love with it when I want just a thin subtle coat, it can be built up to be much thicker but I prefer to use different mascara's for fuller lashes.

Bumble and bumble Surf Spray

I also purchased this while I was in Florida and I love it when my hair is feeling a bit flat which is quite often as it is naturally very straight.

Giorgio Armani Si Perfume

I was given this perfume for Christmas and love to use it for events/special occasions. The smell is long lasting which you'd expect from an expensive perfume. It has a hint of blackcurrant while still being quite a musky scent.

What have you been loving recently?
