So last year for Halloween I did this(^) to my face and received quite a few compliments on it so thought maybe this year I'd show ya'll how to recreate this look super easily, with almost entirely makeup you'll already have. Ain't nobody got the dollah for that.
All you'll need is white face paint, black eyeliner(pencil or gel are best), coloured eyeshadow/facepaint (I used a blue Barry M dazzle dust), and a dark preferably black eyeshadow. Optionally you can also use false lashes and rhinestones around the eyes like I did.
1// Cover face in white face paint.
2// Add black rings around the eyes and fill in with colour of your choice. Cover nose in black eyeliner and add a v over the bridge of your nose.
3// Draw 7-8 lines from between your eyebrows out to your hair line. Try and make them as straight as possible, I sucked at this.
4// Add curved lines between each of those lines to create a spider's web effect on your forehead.
5// Run black/dark eyeshadow through the crease of your eyelids and then add eyeliner if you choose to. I just did a small flick.
6// Draw swirling vines through the hollows of your cheeks, where you would usually contour.
7// Add petals to the ends of the vines and fill in with colour of your choice.
8// Draw a line horizontally through the lips and then some shorter ones vertically over your lips, to make them look like teeth.
Optional
9// Glue rhinestones around the eye sockets either with eyelash glue or use ready glued ones like I did from The Works.
10// Add false eyelashes for a more dramatic eye look.
I hope those instructions were somewhat helpful to you, I paired this makeup look with a black velvet skater skirt, black heels and a skeleton print t-shirt that I picked up in Primark the year previously. But you can get really nice skeleton dresses online like my friends Niamh did (See photo above [She's the one that makes me look like a dwarf])
If you try it out please,please, please, pleaseeeeeee send me a pic on twitter, I would love to see it.
