Am I the only one here who can’t believe it’s already December?!?! Geez, this year has flown by in the blink of an eye. Anywho, I decided to challenge myself this month and come up with an awesome daily photo challenge for the ENTIRE MONTH! Yeah, a bit ballsy I know, but stick with me it get’s better.
I will be sharing my challenge images over on my Instagram (@ohjaechaos), so definitely head on over there and check the follow button. Also, if you accept the challenge as well, I would love to see your daily pictures so be sure to hashtag them #dec14OJCmakeupchallenge and #ohjaechaos. Every week I will do a share of my favorite challenge images from the week, including tagging you guys in them so definitely be sure to hashtag so I can see them. ((Please note that I can only see the public accounts with the hashtags.)) All the featured looks will be thrown into a hat and the winner will receive an awesome surprise.
Now, without further chatter, here’s this month’s COMPLETE challenge list. If you would like to save the image, just click on it and download it from the new window.
DAILY CHALLENGES:
[twocol_one_first]1 – Fresh Faced: Bare and no makeup. Be confident in your own skin, everyone has imperfections and that’s what makes us unique!

3 – Movie-Inspired: Create a look inspired by your favorite movie or movie character. It can be simple or complex, as long as you’re inspired!
4 – Smokey-Eye: Pretty simple. Smoke those gorgeous lids out!
5 – Frost & Snow: Inspired by Winter. SFX or simply silver, white, and shimmery. Just stay away from all that yellow snow – it’s not banana/lemon flavored.
6 – Bold Lips: Reach for your favorite bold lip color and pout, pout, pout!
7 – Bright & Colorful: Give Skittles a run for their money. Show me how colourful you are.

13 – Simple & Sweet: Create a simple look. Must not take you more than 30 minutes from start to finish. Think “No Makeup” Makeup…

Feel free to shout out to your favorite companies as well.[/twocol_one_first][twocol_one_last]17 – Magically-Inspired: Free that beautiful unicorn/dragon/elf/faerie living inside you.

Rules:
- You must re-post the initial DECEMBER 2014 MAKEUP CHALLENGE LIST on your profile. Feel free to help share it with your friends and favorite beauty gurus.
- You have 3 times you can pass on a daily challenge. I completely realize that life gets busy so I’ve worked in one day each week that gives your face a break. If you need to pass on a daily challenge, don’t feel guilty, just take a break and pick back up refreshed and ready to go.
- Please include the following hashtags in your daily challenge post: #dec14ojcmakeupchallenge and #ohjaechaos so I can check out your awesome creations! I would also love it if you followed my account, but if I’m not your jam, then that’s totally cool. I will just cry in the corner when nobody is looking. 🙂
- You may repost old looks if you are stuck. The whole point of this challenge is to help you grow in your makeup-jedi skills but if you have an epic look that fits perfectly, feel free to share it!
- I will be sharing a few of my favorite looks from the #dec14ojcmakeupchallenge with my followers each Saturday. Each time I pick my favorites for the week, their username gets thrown into a hat and at the end of the month I will be giving away a little surprise to the person who’s name is drawn. YEP! I’M DOING A SECRET GIVEAWAY.
- GIVEAWAY RULES: You must be following me (@ohjaechaos) for the duration of the contest. People who instantly unfollow after the challenge is over will be disqualified from any further giveaways/features. You MUST re-post the initial challenge image with all the daily details. And you must attempt at least 8 of the challenges (on the day that they’re challenged. Example: December 1st is a bare/fresh faced look, December 12th you must use glitter in your look, etc). I will check!!!
Winner will be chosen and announced on January 1st!
