It’s Halloween, my amaretto and truffles candle is scenting the house, and there are reports of haunted houses on the news.

I’m impatiently waiting to see if I get any trick or treaters. We don’t have an official time this year, but last year it was from 6-8 or 6-9, but I didn’t get anyone until after that time period was over.

I’m not dressing up, but I did decide to at least do my makeup a little wilder than normal.

I used my Maybelline Instant Age Rewind foundation, jane blushing glow blush, and to be a little on the wild side, I used Twisted Fayte’s Foam piggie as a wash, with backstapper used wet as a liner. It looks pretty cool. Unfortunately I don’t think Twisted Fayte has these piggies, but foam is a pale, green shadow with shimmer. Backstabber is rather unusual, I thought it was olive green, but when I opened the baggie (they are samples) it was a shimmery purple. It looks like a dark green on my eyelids though.

This look definitely called for mascara, so I used Clinique’s Lash Doubling Mascara in black. I always wear black mascara, even though everyone says not to. If I use brown I look ike I’m not wearing any mascara at all.

I also used Jane Lipstick in Kiss of Caramel - this is the only lipstick that I’ve ever used more than one tube of. This color wasn’t exactly right with the rest of the makeup, so I pulled out my Loreal So Delice in cherry cola, which is a sheer red. The two looked great together, and I will definitely be trying this look again.

And for all of you that are cold out there - my AC is off and it’s 79 inside. I had to turn on the fan, I’m hot.

I’m such a kid, I just peeked out the window and I see a lantern bobbing down the street, I hope they come to my house

Off to wait!
