Blogger: Cheap Frills & Thrills

I recently discovered a blogger whilst browsing for some Halloween Makeup Ideas - This is Shannon O'Brien - she runs the blog, Cheap Frills & Thrills.

Check it out here.

Not only is she big-time with makeup artistry - but she is still fully dedicated to blogging and giving you tutorials on how to do your makeup just as flawlessly as she!
