♕ Halloween 2016 ♕ Harley Quinn ~ Suicide Squad ♕

Second Halloween look, featuring a trending character that is surely going to be one of the most popular Halloween costume this year: Harley Quinn from the Suicide Squad movie!
This was requested on Instagram by one of my followers, which really made me happy - I love requests and had so much fun creating this look! 



As you can see my look is a little bit different from the original - I wanted to stick to it but, at the same time, I also wanted to add my personal touch. As always.
So, instead, of one colour per eye, I used both red and blue altogether. I think it's a nice twist - plus these two colours works greatly together! It's a very easy and quick look to make, and sooo much fun when it comes to the smudge-on-purpose part. The more smudgier, the messier - the better! 


First step, eyeprimer. For the red parts I used a red lip pencil as a base - since I don't own any bright pure red shadows I needed a little help. I blended/smudged it with my finger, then I applied Fahrenheit by NABLA Cosmetics - just a thin layer, to keep the lip pencil in place without altering the red shade. For the blue parts I used just an eyeshadow - Eternity by NABLA, bright and pigmented on its own so no blue base needed. I applied it on the outer part of the lid and on the outer corner, blending it into the crease. I smudged it on the outer corner almost randomly, both using fingers and various brushes. I used a white pigment to give the illusion of watery streaks - which you can barely see in picture, sadly. As I said before: the smudgier and messier the better, there's no wrong way or right way. 


I used the same white pigment as transition shade and on the inner corner - kept it very simple. 
The original movie look didn't include any dramatic and graphic eyeliner (just a smudge touch I guess) but I did a long and thing line anyway XD I also applied a black eyepencil on the lower waterline and lashline, this time just gently blending it - like I usually do for my looks. 
I applied false lashes and mascara, blended a soft touch of Antique White on my brow bone and lastly, the icing on the cake, I draw a small heart right below my lower lid. 


And we are done! So happy with the final result, it's exactly like I wanted it to be. Probably one of the easiest look I've ever made - but sooo eye-catching! I think that a lighter and brighter blue would fit better - but I do my best and use what I own. That being said, anyway, Eternity did its job wonderfully *-*

If you're going be Harley Quinn for Halloween and you want (or need) this look to be closer to the original one, just use one colour per eye - easier and quicker ;D
This look must go with bright red lips, needless to say u.u Keep them well defined or smudge them too - as you prefer. If I had to choose, I'd go for defined lips, to contrast the messy eye makeup!
