The Pumpkin LifeA while ago we bought Finch a little Woody costume which prompted some dressing up in matching costumes. I realise not everyone dresses up with their pets but I love it. Last year Gatsby and I did a few costumes together but my favourite was our Wednesday and Pugsley Addams outfits. To match Finch I decided […]
Last Sunday I turned my very lovely friend Laura into the Mistress of Evil, Malficent for a Blank Canvas Cosmetics demo at the Pro Beauty Show in the RDS. Maleficent is such a fun character to create and to dress up as and would make a great Halloween costume. There are two main forms of […]
The start of September saw Force Friday II. This was the day when the official merchandise of the new Star Wars film was released. To celebrate the event I decided to dress up as Princess Leia. To be fair, it really doesn’t take much for me to indulge in fancy dress. Whatever the day or […]
Although we are now on the countdown to Christmas, this week’s Wedding Wednesday is going to take a look back on Halloween. Halloween is my favourite time of year; I absolutely love it. This year for Halloween we dressed up as Corpse Bride and Victor and had our engagement party. This evening I’m going to […]
Continuing with my quick and affordable Halloween tutorials, today is the easiest of all looks. This is perfect for a very last minute look.

I think it is very clear by now that I love Halloween. Over the years I have created various make-up tutorials and have tried to make them as fuss free and as accessible as possible. I’m continuing this with Halloween looks. They don’t have to be expensive or overly difficult. I have already shown you […]
Leaves have fallen, it is starting to get a little colder, it is getting darker earlier and Halloween is near. This is my absolute favourite time of year. Nothing makes me happier than feeling a chill and browsing Halloween products in shops. I will have a separate post on my favourite Halloween items but today […]
On Sunday I attended the Pro Beauty Show in the RDS and was absolutely delighted when Una from Blank Canvas Cosmetics asked me to do a Halloween demo. I was so surprised and honoured. I was totally thrilled as 1. I love Halloween, 2. I really love Blank Canvas Cosmetics and 3. Una told me I could create whatever look […]
For the first time, this year I attended the Dublin Comic Con. I have wanted to go before but for one reason or another it had never worked out. I had a number of costumes for consideration but as we were sitting watching Bojack Horseman one evening we decided it would be funny to go […]
