The dreaded “Spring Forward” is coming for many of us. If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Savings Time, you are lucky and you can sit back and laugh at all of us bunnies springing forward and back like the crazy March Hare. For those of us who are going to be losing that hour, maybe you can make it funner by dressing up for the occasion.
For the 2009 Edwardian Ball, I tried my hand at a very tame clock face knowing the crush, dancing, and heat level in the event wouldn’t stand for a full face of makeup to hold up. I stuck clock stickers around my eyes and painted my lids with a gold shadow. It held!

Horror on a Budget is a youtube user that shows you how to do horror makeup on the cheap. She did a Seven Deadly Sins series, but hasn’t finished it. She did two of them (watch below) and I hope she does more!

Gluttony
Lust
Sloth
Envy
Greed
And lastly, if you’re looking for a slightly funner or more brilliant green Envy, check out this Poison Ivy tutorial.

NYX (not to be confused with NYC) shadows and powders
Liquid black eyeliner art – don’t be afraid to paint outside the lines
Glitter plunger – to spray a favorite glitter onto wet eyeliner– instant glitter glue
Prosthetic glue – to glitter up your eyes without worrying about it coming off
Sparkle nail polish to add small dots on eyeliner dots – not directly on face and not too close to eye… that hurts!
Clothing Items:
Stripey knee socks (black and white are kinda out, choose another color or go with a non-striped pattern)
Wrist warmers or fingerless gloves
Scarves – all different textures… but must be soft to the skin
Awesome boots of all kinds
Layered, multi-textured skirts of all lengths
