MURDER MYSTERY IN AMAZON PLACE - Make up of a different kind.

I want to suck your blood!!!!

Our Host of the night - Branka.

No. I'm no mosquito. I'm simply creating the scene for you to imagine. As a Make up Artist, my weekends are filled with Bridal make up bookings, formal bookings and special occasion make up. But when I was sent a pic by my good friend, Branka, of her attempt to do her hubby's make up for a Murder Mystery night - I knew my brushes were going to grace the likes of white face powder, black kohl eyes and fake slimy blood. Her hubby looked pretty - NOT scary at all. This girl needed me......STAT.

MISSION: To turn 2 very good looking people (hubby and wife) into MR & MRS VAMPIRE.
I was excited. I've only done this a few times before. The last being for Maxim Magazine Models for a Halloween Party at Marquee 2013. Transforming business men's faces into ghosts, ghouls and alien-like creatures, was enthralling.

To be totally honest, this type of make up application is so easy and very quick. I ended up doing 3 people within 1/2 hour. Its like being given the Green Light to colour in outside the lines. So much fun.

EXHIBIT A : Mr & Mrs Vampire Brumec

I also had the pleasure of transforming one other mortal. He had sent me a question via my blog last week, enquiring about green make up. Think HULK, KERMIT & enter FRANKenstein; aka known as Frank. This is one of my favourites, only cause the different degrees of the colour green is awesome. And it was done by yours truly......lol

EXIBIT B: FRANKestein aka Frank. Such a sweety.

Once my mission was accomplished, I made a quick dash back home to paint the husband and to pretty myself up too.

The quickest 1/2 hour make up, hair and costume change ever. Thank you Halloween for allowing me to tick off one of my bucket lists' MUST DO points. To dress up as a naughty Nurse - from the grave, who brings Elvis back from the dead. Brilliant if I must say so myself.

EXHIBIT C: Elvis from the grave with his naughty nurse, AKA Andy & Sandy.

Make up done by Sminka Ink - me of course.

NIGHTMARE ON AMAZON STREET.
How cool do I look. I scare myself I'm that cool. Lol.

On arrival to the Haunted Brumec Mansion, we were greeted by Brumec Manor's Lady of the house. Now that her costume was on - the make up looked even better. Down to the dungeon we made our way, where it was covered in spiders (fake ones of course otherwise there is no freaken way I would be there - without the Baygon), skeletons, flying bats and cobwebs everywhere. The MAID welcomed us all........our Murder Mystery Night was about to begin. Who killed the original Madame of Brumec Mansion? Killed exactly 10 years ago to the date - SATURDAY 27 SEPTEMBER.

The Maid aka the Host of our Murder Mystery Night.

I'm not going to give too much away, as I don't want to spoil anything for those of you who want to host their very own Murder Mystery Night. Do I recommend it - HELL YEH. 100%. It would be great for adult birthday parties, hens or bucks parties or just an excuse to have a party with some awesome people - which is exactly what the Brumec's did. Nice work guys.

You are given a new identity - mine was Tammy Saintly (almost like a porn name) - and the group is put through various, yet hilarious activities to find out who the killer was. Everyone in the room is a suspect. We just don't know it yet. Sounds intriguing? Well, my lips are sealed where all this leads to.
Lets just say after approx. 2 hours, the killer was found. Definitely not who any of us suspected. Very clever gaming.

Boys will be boys - SCARY 

VAMPIRE JOHN, ELVIS ANDY & COUNT NICK. 

ROLE PLAYING - always the actress I might add.  

GIRLS IN THE DUNGEON. 

MORTICIA & NAUGHTY NURSE SANDYK 

MORTICIA & GOMEZ
Love these guys. 

BITCHES IN THE HOOD. 

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF AMAZON PLACE.

(Awkward moment when asked if I had powdered my body white - Ummm. Nope. I'm that white.
Enter Spraytans with Sminka Ink).

The night did not end there to much our delight. Out came the Spirits - not dead people, but actual Spirits, as in alcohol, booze and grog. No goon bags thank goodness. (I do like them - but lets pretend I don't, just for this blog).

LATE NIGHT SESSION WITH ELVIS AND MADAME BRUMEC 

CLEAVAGE OR DECOLLETAGE - YOUR PICK.
LATE NIGHT SELFIES AT 2AM IN THE MORNING WHEN THE WOLFPACK IS OUT. 

Fun times were had by all. The Make up disguised our drunken faces - our glow was no where to be found but that didn't matter. Can't wait for the next dress up party where I can have fun painting faces again. Hmmmmm, the real Halloween is coming up. Any takers?

BITE ME.
ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION MAY BE PRESENT. 

NO COMMENT. EXCEPT - look at that hairy spider. 

THE GOOD WITCH - SNOW WHITE I SAY.
NO APPLE BITTEN HERE. ONLY ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONSUMED. 

A BUNCH OF SCARY SEXY LADIES - Lana, Danielle, Kathy & Nurse SandyK.
Me in the white - well the gut hanging out is all part of the costume. (insert wink here).
