Halloween Series :: Ringmaster Makeup

So its that time of year again, the leaves changing colors and the ghouls come out to play! Yes its halloween time! And to kick of the season I'm going to do another series of videos. This one will feature some halloween looks. I'm hoping to snag my fiance and brother into getting in on the fun and using them for some tutorials this month but we'll see how that pans out...

Any who... For my first look I decided to do a ringmaster look. This was actually my costume last year. Surprisingly this was a very hard costume to get. I looked everywhere and couldn't find one I liked so I took matters into my own hands and actually made my jacket for the costume. Let me tell you... I won't be doing that again. While I loved how it came out it was also a nightmare to get it done. Haha!

Perhaps a little background will help. From middle school till high school I took about 5 years of sewing. I didn't do it my senior year cause I had no interest in making a formal gown as that was the assignment for seniors in sewing class. Well waiting 6 years to get back into a sewing machine taught me I forgot A LOT! Regardless of all the issues I was able to finish my jacket with the help of my sister and aunt.

Okay so back to the point. To kick off the first look in my series I decided to have another go for the ring master makeup. Here's the results. And of course I filmed a tutorial on it. This tutorial however I did slightly different than normal. Let me know what you guys think. Would you like to see the tutorials done this way with step by step instructions and music or me explaining the steps as we go through the motions. Let me know.
