Ghouls just wanna have fun…

Boo!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Well, hi again!, long time no freaking see again >.< Basically because my laptop is a hot mess & my camera is awol (all the lols)

This post is a little random but I thought it might be a nice ‘ice breaker’ back into the blogosphere. If you follow my instagram @effiesmakeupbox you will have probably already seen some of these photos (if you don’t, then go & follow, I promise my feed is pretty OK (a no belfie zone but still pretty good ;)

So yeah, this post is pretty self explanatory really, I dressed up as quite a few bits & bobs this Halloween (Ariel being my favourite, closely followed by Lydia Deetz) Gotta love a bit of Halloween cosplay! & then there are the obligatory pumpkins, I swear we pick something harder & harder each year to carve, this year being Groot & Star Lorde from Guardians Of The Galaxy (SUCH a good film!)

Anyway, I think it’s nice to be back? I’m gonna stop rambling now & let you get on with the rest of your Sundays :) What did you guys dress up as for Halloween? Also, leave your instagrams in the comments/tweet me (probably best to tweet me actually as I’m more likely to check there first) cos I’m always looking for new pretty accounts to follow! ^_^

Witchy Talons tutorial

Woah, a nail tutorial, I haven’t done one of these in a while! As little while ago, company magazine got in touch with me & a couple of other bloggers to see if we would contribute to their Halloween issue (it’s in the shops now!) I was specifically asked if I could do 2 spooky nail tutorials & well, this is the first of the two! I hope you like it! Let me know if you try them out!

My HALLOWEEN nails…

Hahaha, the last picture wasn’t meant to be so blurry but it actually turned out looking pretty sweet!
Pink: Models Own, Pink Punch
White: no brand :/
Black: Natural Collection liquid eyeliner
Top coat: Natural Collection, Crystal Clear

OK so I have spent the last few weeks trying out all different kinds of Halloween nail designs & trying to do something a little different than the ‘usual’ pumpkin/blood dripping/spider web nails that normally fill up blog & YT feeds around this time of year. I finally decided on these beauts & they were surprisingly easy to do too! :)

I am actually gutted that we are not home for Halloween this year because they don’t really do much here to celebrate at all & if you know me, you will know that Halloween is one of my (& Liams) favourite ‘holidays’ so we are pretty jealous of all you guys at home who get to celebrate properly. My Mum has apparently rented a gothic vampire costume to wear to a fancy dress that she is going to with the rest of my family which sounds pretty awesome, I can’t wait to see the pictures!

On the plus side, I did get to draw a couple of Halloween worksheets for Liam to use in his lessons at school which was fun, & we managed to find a pumpkin to carve (even if it is the smallest one in the world) so I guess it’s not all bad. ;)

It would be great if you could send me your links to any Halloween posts you have done, as you know, I have pretty much been out of the blogging ‘loop’ for frick knows how long (WAH) & I would love to read some of your ‘Halloween’ shizzle!

PS: Would someone be kind enough to buy & send me the Primark black leather pleated skirt? (You know the one I mean? in a size 8) obvs I'd send you the money & pay for postage :) & I will give a months free advertising to the sender as a thankyou :) I am in desperate need of a leather skirt in my life & the Primark here is a million miles away WAH!!! :)
