Halloween makeup- clown

Hey guys!! So here is the final of my week load of halloween make up ideas, saving the best till last, this is actually a lot easier than you would think, but it does take time and patience!!

You will need- White face paint, bright eye shadow- yellow, pink and purple, pencil and liquid eye liner- or back face paint.

Step 1- make sure your skin is moisturised, because the face paint will dry your skin out! Then, using your white face paint, put it all over your face (you could also take it down your neck too if you want to go all out clown style). Next, get your yellow eye shadow and cover your eye lids in this lovely bright colour..!

Step 2- Using your pink eye shadow, brush this under your eyes in a half moon- like shape, going slightly onto your cheeks. 

Step 3- Get your purple eye shadow and add this on top of the pink to add more colour and depth, creating an ombre look. 

Step 4- Get your black pencil eye liner and draw a rounded triangle on to the end of your nose and fill it in with the liquid eye liner (or black face paint if you have it).

Step 5- using the eye liner/ black face paint again, paint your lips with it, i went slightly over my lip shape to make this mouth part look bigger, then from the corners of your mouth to a 'big flick' as you would an eye liner wing going up on to your cheeks- as much as you want. Then using the white face paint again, put little blogs of it on to the lips and nose to highlight them.

Step 6- this is the tricky part- which is really hard to explain so its easier copying it from the photo if I'm honest, but to create the top part of the eye make up, you need to draw a line just above the crease in your eyelid and kind of draw a triangular shape up through your eye brow to your forehead and colour this in black. Then add your normal winged eyeliner, slightly heavier than you usually would and make sure the wing is big. For the bottom part you also need to draw a triangular shape under your eye bringing the middle bit down to your cheek, at the end of each 'flick' add a little dot. 

Finished! The eye section is really hard to explain how to do, so i hope you understood it ok!

This is my favourite look that i have created out of the 7 that i have posted about. i hope you have been able to follow them all ok and have enjoyed these different to usual posts, i know i have!

Have a fun halloween and i will see you next week with a post most likely about an outfit that i have worn!If you have any requests on what you would like to see me blog about please do let me know!

See you next week!

Halloween makeup- half green zombie

Hey guys, so this is the second to last halloween makeup tutorial that i will be doing this year! This one is zombie inspired and is sooo easy to do! As you can probably tell from my previous make up designs, i like the half face kinda look as i think it has more of a glamorous feel to it compared to a full face of makeup/ face paint.

You will need- two shades of green eyeshadow/ face paint, red lipstick, fake blood, your normal make up, including eyeliner (if eyeliner is not in your normal day to day makeup bag).

Step 1- using eyeliner, draw a similar shape to the one i have done on one side of your face, going further to the other side on your forehead. To go all out with this look, i would suggest going down your neck/ chest with this shape to make it look more zombie like. 

Step 2- using the lighter of the green eye shadow/ face paint, fill in the shape you have just made with the eye liner, and if your doing it down your neck too, don't forget to fill that in also!  

Step 3- Using the darker of the greens now, this will create shadow and structure to your face. Use it as you would if you were contouring your cheek bone, and add it around the edge of the eyeliner shape, making bits darker that others- like i have done to my nose, chin and forehead.

Step 4- getting your eye liner again, put it on heavily to your top eye lid, creating a big wing, also add it under your eye to really make your eye stand out. Then, using the eyeliner again, create lines on your eye lid going towards your eye brow creating big eye lashes. This makes your eye look really big compared to the other one!

Step 5- Colour your eye brow in with a darker shade than you usually would, (i have a palette of brown and black, i usually use the brow so for this i used the black) and make the brow slightly chunkier than you usually would too. Getting your red lipstick, cover you lips as you usually would. Get you eyeliner again, and go back around the shape you originally made adding little crosses to make it look sewn on. Using either a darker shade of lipstick or eyeliner, shade in the corner of your mouth that is in the green area, adding depth and darkness to your top and bottom lip, and flick the edge out as you would winged eye liner, this will create a slightly different shape to your mouth compared to the 'normal' side of your face. 

Step 6- do your normal makeup on the 'non green' side of your face and make sure you go around the green shape you have made to make sure your skin is even all over (obviously except the green section). For this side, i decided to make my make up quite natural looking so it makes the green part stand out more.

Step 7- Finally, get your fake blood and drip it from your eye/ eye brow or where ever you want it- you can totally skip this stage if you prefer the look with out the blood. To really finish this look off, get yourself some red/ white/ black contact lenses and use them just in the green side eye!

DA DAAARH!

Halloween makeup- pop art

Hey guys!! I hope you enjoyed yesterdays skull post, this is another idea for Halloween but less scary and very easy!

So step 1, put on your normal makeup- foundation, bronzer, blusher, mascara then use a brightly coloured eyeshadow- I used green and yellow as it stands out, then put your eyeliner on.

The next step is to colour in your eyebrows- the darker the better and make them bigger than you normally do, then choose a bright lipstick, the one I'm using is 'girl about town' by mac and this will be the base colour for your next step.

Step 3- use eyeliner and make little lines on your face, like I have. This will create more shape and structure to your face. Then using eyeliner again, draw around your lips, flicking it out at both ends, using black eye shadow, shade in the corners of your lips making them look bigger and bolder, then using white face paint add little bits to the centre of each lip to make it look like light is hitting them, making them look even bigger and in your face! (close up below)

                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Step 4- using the white face paint, add white dots all over your face finishing this pop art look off, I used the end of a brush to create these as it was the perfect size for the dots.

The final step is to draw a tear shape under which ever eye you want, use eyeliner to do this, and colour in the shape you have made in blue eye shadow.

DAH DARRH! Finished!

I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial, see you again tomorrow with my third halloween makeup idea and check out my instagram for more photos and videos on these!

Enjoy!

Halloween makeup- cracked skull

Hey guys! So over the next few days leading up to Halloween I am going to post some picture tutorials on how to create these easy yet effective makeup masks using what is in your makeup bag (and white paint). For this look you will need- white paint, eyeliner, black eye shadow, red lipstick and the rest of your day today makeup.

Step 1- use black eyeliner to create this zig-zag shape on one side of your face, how ever big/ small you desire.

Step 2- now you have the zig-zag shape, put your normal make up into the zig-zag shape. On the other side, cover the rest of your face in white face paint and draw a circle in eyeliner around your eye socket and colour it in using the eyeliner (you can use black face paint too but eyeliner is all I had at the time!)

Step 3- draw a line in eyeliner from your cheek bone to the edge of your mouth. Then colour the end of your nose in and triangular kind if shape and shade in around the zig- zag and the side of your forehead to give shape. And creating a good skull is all about shading. (sorry the pictures are around the wrong way the wouldn't change sides). Once you have done this, shade in under the cheek bone line and add a slightly lighter one above it then use a thin brush and black eye shadow to create little crack like marks on your forehead. After that, use your eyeliner to create little lines on your lips to begin to create the teeth, going about an inch onto your cheek and then do upside down 'C' shapes linking each line together to finish the teeth shape. I then went back and added more white paint to each tooth to make them stand out more.

The final step is to add red lipstick to the 'normal' side of your lips! make sure you remember to shade in around the zig- zags on this side of your face too! If you really want to make this whole look 'POP' id suggest adding paint down your neck and adding shading, and getting some white contact lenses would really finish this look off!!!

I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial! I will be posting another one tomorrow!!

Enjoy!
