Halloween Makeup - "The Doll Face" How too



I posted a quick look of the photos from the Inglot “the doll face” look last Friday before I received the write up and details from my friend. Take a read of how they got on and a detailed look on how to recreate the look.

Hi Guys,
So I have been given the honour to do a report on a recent Master class done by the wonderfully talented Makeup artists in Inglot. The brilliant blogger Sarah from Beauty Blunders and Other Wonders had two engagements on the one night. A preview showing of Annabelle or a makeup master class with INGLOT so she give me and my sister the honour of going to the master class as her reporters. The glamourous life of a blogger. . .

Ok so upon going to the class I hadn’t really known what to expect as I have never been to a Master Class like this before. The look that was been showing on the night was a Halloween look, ‘The Doll Face’. As it turns out I have a great interest in Halloween and getting dressed up in fancy dress. It just so happened that I was a broken doll last Halloween so I couldn’t wait to learn exactly what I should have done instead of what I did too.
The MUA who was giving the class was very friendly and welcoming to all who attended. Her name is Tanya. She said she gets a little nervous doing these classes and she did seem to be nervous before we started but as soon as she started she was very professional and explained everything to us brilliantly. She gave us a full list of the products she used. One of the main tips that I came away with is that you do not need to buy all these crazy face paints to do Halloween Makeup. For example on this doll look she used the same blusher as an eye shadow, she also put a very light foundation with a very light/white concealer to make the foundation doll like.
Although this was a Halloween look she did for us she also give us tips and hints that can be used for our everyday makeup. It doesn’t matter how much experience you have going to one of these classes as everything is explained as it’s done.

One thing I was a little wary of when the class was over is the big sell at the end for you to but their products. After all it is a free class they have to make their money back somehow as we had a MUA and a model. I waited for it but to my pleasant surprise it didn’t come. We were told that you get 10% off all products on the night of the class but that was it, nothing was pushed on us to buy which avoided all that awkwardness at the end when you don’t want to purchase anything.


"The Doll Face"

Prime your face as normal. Using a flat foundation brush mix the light foundation with concealer white and cover lips and brows. With the White Powder press it into skin rather than brushing powder all over.

To contour your face, sculpt with brown sculpt powder or brown eye shadow. The areas you should contour are from eye brows down the side if nose, under your cheek bones and around the top of your hair line. Take your pink blush and apply to the apples of your cheeks, again press into the skin rather than push.
Brush more foundation in the lips tip block your lip colour. Exaggerate your cupid’s bow with lip liner then fill with lip stick/brush. Use concealer to tidy up mistakes.

Apply white eye liner along the waterline and then under the eye in sweeping motion, this will make your eyes look large and doll like. Apply the same coloured blush you used on your cheeks to your lids, applying from your lid to your brow. Then apply your gel eye liner creating a winged line. Use your concealer and brush to tidy and fix up any mistakes.

Apply big fluffy lashes on your top lash line. For your bottom lashes apply to your extended lash line, cut to fit.

For added touches dot freckles on your cheeks and to make it a bit gorier apply fake blood.

Blush – 62
Foundation – AMC LW 100

Halloween Makeup - Easy Leopard Makeup



If you’re looking for a super easy look to do for Halloween then this is the one for you. If you’re in a hurry this leopard makeup look can be done in a few minutes or if you want a bit more detail you can take your time.  

The main items you will need are the following:

A dark shade of foundation
A light shade of foundation
Bronzer
Black Liquid Liner
Black Pencil Liner
Nude lipstick
Metallic eye shadow in – white/cream, light gold, bronze/dark gold
Lashes
Mascara
 Step 1:
Apply the dark foundation around the outer part of your face, the in the middle of your face apply the lighter foundation. I used Buff Foundation for my darker makeup and Revlon Colourstay for my lighter foundation
Step 2:
On your eyes apply the lighter white/cream metallic colour on your brow bone, lighter gold colour on your crease and the darker gold on your lid or whatever way you would like to do a smokey eye. I used some of the colours from my Metallic Madness palette from Crown Brush.

Step 3:
Create a cat eye liner to your eyes. I’m pretty crap at doing this so if you’re like me just take your time and do your best. I used the They’re Real Push Up liner by Benefit to do mine.

Step 4:
Apply pencil liner around your eye and smoke it out with a pencil brush. On your lower lash line add one of the gold colours and blend it together with the liner to smoke out your bottom line.  Once you have your eyes done apply your mascara and your lashes.

Step 5:
To create your leopard nose just take your black liner and draw and fill in the tip of your nose, bringing a line down to your lip and drawing a thin black like at the top of your lip.

Step 6:
Apply nude lipstick to the bottom of your lip then rub them together. Doing this should create an ombre effect to your lips.
Step 7:
Taking more of the gold metallic colour apply some to your temples, around your nose, and around your smile lines. To contour your cheeks just apply under your cheek bone and blend down. With the white metallic colour apply to the top of your lip area, your chin and the middle of your forehead.

Step 8:
To make some whiskers just dot some liquid liner on your top lip. To make some leopard patterns just do some random C shapes in the areas you would like to be patterned with either or both liquid or pencil liner. You can also add some metallic colours to your leopard print; I added some orange and gold colours to mine.

Step 9:
 All that’s left is to touch up with powder and some bronzer if you wish.

My makeup was done in a hurry so if you take your time I’m sure it will look better. In my photos I don’t have any lashes as I couldn’t find and lash glue but try to find some that are winged out on the edges this will enhance your cat eye. Another tip would be to use a liner that is a bit hard; I used one that was very creamy which meant my leopard prints where a bit bigger and messier.

This look is really simple yet effective so if you’re thinking of something last minute without having to go to a costume shop to buy loads of extras this is great as the majority of you guys will have everything you need in your makeup bags.

Thanks for reading.

Love Sarah xoxo

Living Doll Halloween Makeup Demo


I ended up going to a preview screening of the new horror movie Annabelle last night so I asked my friend if she wanted to go to the living doll makeup demo hosted by Inglot in my place.

She kindly took some pictures for me and for you guys. The look looks simple enough to recreate, I think it's just a case of having the right tools.

Enjoy the pictures and thanks Donna :)
