Halloween Tutorial: Midnight Rose

Don’t be fooled into thinking just ‘cos it’s Halloween, you can’t go glam! Glow Up star Paige Cole shows us how to get your chic on this year with an edgy, yet delicate, Midnight Rose makeup look.

Step 1:

To help your eyeshadow pop for this look, start off by covering your eyelids with a white eyeshadow or white concealer and wing it out past your eye to create a canvas ready to be coloured!

Step 2:

Using a light transition shade from the Revolution Midnight Rose Eyeshadow Palette, blend your white base to soften the lines.

Now, it’s time to add some colour! Use a matte red eyeshadow, apply from the inner corner to the outer corner to create a cat-eye effect.

Add depth and dimension to your eye by applying a black eyeshadow through the crease, using a small brush, to accentuate the cat-eye look.

Blend out any harsh lines between the red and the black eyeshadow.

Step 3:

If you live for a dramatic look at Halloween, we hear ya! Take this makeup look to the next level by applying Eyelure Flutter Intense Lashes. To make the application a little easier, try looking down into the mirror when you're putting them in place.

Step 4:

This Midnight Rose look isn’t for any shrinking violets out there, so add more intensity the look by using the B. Blusher. Apply from the apple of your cheeks to your temples in light, patting motions. Blend it further using the B. Blending Sponge to remove any harsh lines.

Step 5:

Line your lips using the B. Lipliner in 04 Scarlet and top it off with the B. Matte Lipstick in Merlot to create a bold lip.
