Wowie zowie, the quality is BAD (this was before I got better filming equipment), so please forgive me!

- I’m wearing double-stacked lashes here, and I painted one of the pairs white with NYX white liquid liner
- EYELASHES: I used a strip lash and painted it white with NYX Vivid Matte White Eyeliner
- LIPS: NYX Liquid Lipstick in Alien

Spooky, scary skeletons, send shivers down your spine!
Products Used:
- I used the James Charles palette for this, but I’ve used the Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Palette for the same eyeshadow look before, and I like the Jaclyn Hill one wayyy more (plus I would never recommend buying anything from James Charles lmao — the palette was sent to me for free).
