“Ooooooooh winter… Winter is here”

Sooooooo who of you used to watch Thumbelina as a child and knows that’s where the title of this blog is… Nope… Just me!?

So it’s official I posted my first fall/Halloween make up tutorial! September came in with a cold wind and I immediately picked up my dark lips snd plum eyeshadows! But not only is autumn here but fashion weeks all over the world are filling our social media feeds! And some of the biggest trends were, harsh contours and beaded faces…

Now as much as Pat McGrath is a genius and as far as MAC is concerned they are a leading icon in make up but I think I’ll stick to false lashes and blending for now. Other more wearable trends were bold red lips seen on the McQueen, Chanel and Victoria Beckham runways.

And whether it’s a warm or cool eyeshadow its big its blown out and it’s gorgeous.

But back to the tutorial… So because it was fall and my first one I literally threw everything at it… Blown out smokes and red lips… But in true me fashion as much as I wanted it to be wearable fall it slowly turned into not so wearable Halloween! But here is a full product list of everything that was used..
