Teehee that makes me think of these power gems for your tools in Harvest moon Island of happiness. Ahhh~ Anyways. Today I have a make up look inspired by the fall season with red leaves falling AND if you want a very easy Halloween costume. I am experiencing Fall season for the first time and I can still say it is my favorite season of all. Hawaii just is summer/spring all year long, our winters are pretty much summer in Portland. For a small update I've moved to Portland for about a 2 months to network and get a good foot hold in both Animation and Makeup artistry. I hope to have a haul post/video for you all. Now I know I'm not the best at making videos. Mainly because I use my webcam & I have a crap shoot video editing system. Not only that I had a video ready but then my laptop got stolen. I know, it's bad excuse but an honest one is that I just don't feel confident enough just yet.
I digress, so this make up look if you haven't figured it out in the Title post, is a Bella Swan make-up inspired look. (I typed inspired because I did my own twist on it.) Though I never read the books, and didn't really care for the movie line. I did like to watch it with my sister who loved the series. My favorite out of the whole thing was her transformation to an immortal being. Just gorgeous even with the creepy red eyes, I loved how plush her face looks and it's luminescence. Glowing, absolutely glowing.

So in the movie her make up is quite natural looking, she has some deep set eyes which is more genetic I would say. With porcelain skin and such pointed features. Given I didn't really contour my face to be similar to her's only because I wanted this to be the look as if I were a vampire.
*On a side note I got this photo off another website who did their own version of the look. I will link the photo to the website so if you want to check their tutorial out just click on the photo.

Now here is my finished look:
The contacts were pretty comfortable, I wouldn't recommend wearing them for more then 8 hours. I just love how spooky they look. Now if this color is too much they have a darker wine color in these. I will link them as Venus Eye Bright Red and Venus Eye Wine Red. They are my favorite brand and style of contacts from the Pinkyparadise website. Because they don't make my eyes too big like a lot of the other contacts. Plus the colors are so vivid I just love the extra pop of color, even if they do appear unnatural in some lighting.
