Today's look is a super simple knife eyeliner makeup. I got the inspiration for this eyeliner from Pinterest & Instagram, so let me know who originated this idea, so I can credit them. This look is perfect for people who need a last minute Halloween look, or who want to be a little bit spooky during the actual day of Halloween. 

You don't have to copy this look exactly, but I do hope you find inspiration from the products I have chosen & the look I have created, especially the accessories.

And just to clarify, I am not a makeup professional, but I do enjoy experimenting with makeup.



Products used:
Primer - Benefit Porefessional Mattifying Primer
Foundation - Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation in Fair 1
Concealer - Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in 0
Powder - NYX HD Finishing Powder
Eyebrow Pencil - NYX Micro Brow Pencil in Brunette
Cream Contour - Collection Contour Stick in Light
Highlighter - Fenty Beauty Killawatt Highlighter Duo
Bronzer - Urban Decay Naked Flushed in Flushed
Eye Primer - NYX HD Eyeshadow Base
Eyeshadow - Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette / Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette / Illamasqua Powder Eyeshadow in Daemon
Liquid Liner - Soap & Glory Supercat Eyeliner Pen / NYX White Liquid Liner
Eye Pencil - NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Rust
Mascara - Soap & Glory Thick & Fast HD Mascara
Lipstick - Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in Uncensored
Setting Spray - Collection Primed & Ready Spray




This look looks like it might be a little difficult, but it is super simple. Just apply your normal base routine, eyebrows and a red lip (Or any lip colour you want). Then for the eyes, set the eye primer with a bone coloured shadow, and then blend a grey/brown eyeshadow through the crease. Using a black liquid liner, draw on the knife shape. I don't really know how to explain it! Then, using a silver shadow, go over the main part of the knife, leaving a black outline. On the handle, add two white dots with liquid liner. To finish, add mascara, red pencil on the lower waterline and red eyeshadow. If you want to, you could add lashes. 

 


I hope you liked this simple makeup look, which is perfect for wearing during the Halloween day or for a last minute costume. 


What are you going as for Halloween?

AVON Liquid Chrome Eyeliners in Electric Blue, Bronze, Shimmering Amber & Shimmering Silver £6.50 each
Today, I am reviewing the Liquid Chrome Eyeliners from AVON. I purchased 4 of the 7 eyeliners, as they were the most interesting colours to me, and they were colours I knew I would wear. Personally, I thought that these would be good the festive season, if I didn't want to wear glitter, but still wanted to wear something shiny/metallic. 
L-R : Electric Blue / Bronze / Shimmering Amber / Shimmering Silver
The packaging of these isn't anything special, but I do love that the lids are colour-coded, so that it is easy to find the shade you want. The applicator is a standard sponge/felt tip brush, that is easy to use, but it does hold a little too much product. All you have to do with that is swipe a little of the product back into the pot. Depending on what angle you hold the brush, you can achieve different thicknesses of eyeliner, which is great for doing winged liner. Overall, the packaging great, but nothing special.

Shimmering Silver
Bronze
Shimmering Amber
Electric Blue
The consistency is a little thin, but two layers gives you the perfect opaque finish you want. I would recommend keeping your eyelids closed until it dries, as it can crease when still wet. But it is budge proof when it is dry, which makes it very long-lasting. All 4 of the colours are metallic, but are still wearable during the day, unlike some other coloured liners, which can be too glittery or metallic. 
 
Wearing the shade Bronze



Overall, I am very impressed by these metallic liquid liners. They are a great way to introduce colour into your makeup, are long-lasting, inexpensive and easy to use. I probably won't buy the other colours, as I don't think I would wear a green or purple liner and I don't need another black. But, if they come out with other colours in the future, I would give them a try.
If you are looking for a new eyeliner that is a little different to black or brown, the I would recommend giving these a try.

Have you guys tried these yet?
What is your favourite liquid eyeliner?

My Avon order arrived today, so I thought that I would show you. There will be reviews once I have tested the makeup products. 

Firstly, I purchased Colortrend white eyeliner pencil which is £3.00. I wanted a white eyeliner for my waterline so that it opens up my eyes when I wear heavy eyelid makeup.

Last month, I ordered a gel eyeliner, eyeliner brush, nail art tips and lip-liner, and today, they arrived. I will be doing an in-depth review once I have tried the products out.

I ordered these nail tips which have a pink/white/black leopard print on them. They were £1.50 because they were on offer in the last book. They just stick on the ends of your nails for a unique french manicure. I can't wait to try these out on my fake nails.

Today, my Avon order arrived. I will be reviewing these products when I get a chance.
I ordered a new eyeliner and two eyeshadow duos.

Firstly the eyeliner. Now this is a new eyeliner by Avon, called 'always on point' as it has a sharpener in the lid, so it always has a point. The colour I ordered was black as my black eyeliner had recently run out. I am excited to use this as I really like using Avon eyeliners as they are soft compared to some pencils. I am tempted to order the Avon gel liner next, in a different colour though.
