Halloween

This is me in my "Goth Girl" Halloween costume. I'm not that into Halloween so I wanted a costume that would require minimal expenditure. I already had the dress, the tights, the boots, the eyeliner and the pasty skin, so why not?

I think I did a pretty good job with the eyeliner, too. I would show a close up, but I kind of scared myself when I enlarged the picture, so you'll have to make do with this. It's pretty much a really smudgy, exaggerated cat eye, extended down toward my nose at the inner corner, and winged waaay out at the outer corner. I wanted the lid to be darker, but I'm eyeshadow-impaired, so it didn't work out. I did a mix of black and red lipstick, with gloss over the top. (Finally, a use for that massive collection of lipsticks.)
