Day 198: Wednesday, October 25 2017
Camera: Sony XPERIA L1
Like I've said before a few times, I am normally against other holidays before Halloween. Sadly, stores don't agree with me, and Christmas (and often Sinterklaas also) are in full swing.
HEMA has it's Christmas section up, and I did have a look.
They had this cute camera ornament, which I am REFUSING to buy on the grounds of "NO CHRISTMAS BEFORE HALLOWEEN", but I still took a photo :). Too bad it's so fragile or I would have gotten a few to send out to my camera friends, but it'll NEVER make it to them in one piece, no matter how careful I wrap it :(.
Day 25/31 days of Halloween
NuPennywise.
I didn't care much for the IT remake, but I do still adore the updated look and costume of Pennywise. So I caved and bandwagoned and also did a look.
THANK GOD most of my looks were pre-shot, because at this point I was on day 5 of the extreme allergic reaction to Glamglow's Gravity mud (ongoing story about that here) and there was no way I could have wore makeup on my face. Well, I could wear lipstick and eyeshadow but considering the state my face was in, it would NOT have made for a nice photo at all.
BROWS:
- M.A.C, brow sculpt in Cork
EYES:
- M.A.C, sized to go zoom lash in Beets Me
- M.A.C, Semi-Sweet eye shadow x 9 in Drawing a Blanc, Bamboo, Mocha Minded, Dancing in the Dark and Carbon

Day 199: Thursday, October 26 2017
Day 26/31 days of Halloween
Camera: Sony XPERIA L1
This was actually not a pre-shot look.
I had originally planned to do a zipper face, but as my face was still suffering allergy doom, I ended up doing it on my arm instead.

- Sephora, Cream Lip Stain in Pretty Auburn
- Snazaroo, Special FX gel blood
- Too Face, Melted Matte in Evil Twin
- Zipper, can normally be found at any place that sells sewing supplies. This one was one I had lying around, which is why it's bright blue (but I didn't want to go out and spend money on a nicer coloured one because I knew it'd be ruined after this).

My trusty bike, with my stuff still in the basket :)
Day 27/31 days of Halloween
Originally I had another look planned, but as my face is STILL in shambles (do yourself a favour and avoid Glamglow products like the plague, they are NOT good for you!), I decided to do nail art.
I had to do my nails for the weekend anyway, after all.

- Daiso, glitter stars
- Daiso, nail star gems

Halloween Jfashion meet time!
We went and had high tea! Eventually, I will write a proper blog post about this :).
I feel like I should not be trusted to take selfies on any device that has a screen where I can see what I'm doing.
Because if I take one with my Canon compact camera or Polaroid SNAP, they always come out way nicer! Or better said: not blurry, oops!
I started off wearing my pink brain print beret, but I found this hat at a second hat shop for only €7 so the beret went in my backpack and I wore this instead :).
