Happy Halloween: Scary Alice Doll Look.

This look was so easy to put together and really affordable :) 

Costume: eBay

Shoes: Isabella Brown

Socks: Best and Less- frilly girls' socks

Necklace & Bracelets: Six

Hair Bows: were actually the ribbons you get in the inside of tops/ dresses to hang them on the hanger. I keep heaps of these, you get a great variety of colours :) 

To achieve the scary doll face makeup, start with your usual full-coverage primer/ foundation routine. It would be good to use a foundation colour a few shades lighter than you natural skin-tone, but I didn't want to buy a new one for this one look, so you can use lots of concealer in the under-eye area to make your face a bit more pale, but this isn't necessary. 

Secondly, cover your lips in your foundation as well, you are going to draw on a cupid's bow lip outline (and fill in) with a red/ fuchsia lipliner and gloss over (only the created lip space) with a dark pink/ red lip-gloss.

The eye makeup was really simple. I used a aqua blue eyeshadow from my Designer Brands palette. Use a fluffy brush to blend the blue eye-shadow and really exaggerate it on the outer corners of your eyes. 

Coat your upper lash line with with lots of liquid eyeliner. Apply your false lashes and coat with some mascara. My false lashes, to and bottom are from Daiso so they were cheap at peanuts! Or $2.80 to be precise. 

The next step is the most intricate. Line your waterline with white eyeliner and use a white shadow (with that helpful fluffy brush again) to whiten the area under your eyes (the eye-bag area to be extremely elegant) to create the illusion of bigger, more circular eyes like a doll. 

Now you can either draw on, or apply some bottom lashes on the bottom of  your new eyes. Be careful to get them as symmetrical as possible and go over the lash line with a black eyeliner. You can use liquid if you have a steady hand, but a sharp pencil will work just as well. 

Finally use a very rosy blush on the very apples of your cheeks; again to create this quite plastic doll-like look. I used Nabi blush in the colour 15 Pink. This product is very pigmented and I find it very hard to not apply this too heavily for my everyday makeup routine, but for this look it was perfect. 

You can draw stitches on your face/ neck with a black pencil eyeliner too for extra scare. 

Finally, dust over with your favourite finishing powder. 

For hair, I just teased the top of my hair and created 2 mini pigtails with some thin white ribbon. I sprayed some hairspray and made it messy. A scary doll can't be too well put together... Think... electrecution! 

...And viola! You are a stunned doll!
