Halloween make-up

Okay, let’s start with my personal favorite holiday – HALLOWEEN! Ooh, spooky!

Halloween make-up is something that we all know and love. Some of us are looking forward to this special day, so we can transform into someone or something spooky, mysterious, or even glamourous with a sprinkle of creepiness on the top.

Glamourous with creepiness is exactly what we going to do today, so buckle up my friends and let’s start!

Step 1: Halloween inspiration

When it comes to making any kind of form of art, you always need inspiration. Sometimes it comes naturally, but sometimes you need to search for inspiration or even motivation in order to come out with a look. In our case, Halloween and its spirit are enough inspirations for me, but if you struggle with this one let me show you what inspired me to come up with this look.
First of all, let’s get ourselves into a mood with some good music to play in the background. If you have a Spotify here’s a playlist that I made for you: click here , but if you don’t have it, here’s a list of my personal favorites:

1. The whole discography of Hollywood Vampires
2. Ghoustbusters – Ray Parker Jr.
3. Disturbia – Rihanna
4. Thriller – Michal Jackson (duh)
5. Superstition – Steve Wonder
6. Somebody’s watching me – Rockwell
7. Zombie – The Cranberries
8. Spiredwebs – No doubt
9. Snakes – Bastille
10. Blood in the cut – K.Flay

So now, when we got this out of the way, let’s think about the actual make-up. What first thing come’s to your mind when you hear the word “Halloween”? What’s right, PUMPKIN!

So let’s combine this two together: pumpkin + glamourous make-up.

Step 2:  Let’s just bloody do it!

You’ll be needing:

1. Yellow lipstick
2. Red lipstick
3. Cotton pads
4. White glue
5. Dark eyeshadows
6. Color corrector
7. Your normal foundation
8. Hot Pink eyeshadow
9. Mascara
10. Brow pencil
11. Eyeliner

For the pumpkin part: 1-5; for the glaumourous part: 6-11.

To create cuts I used cotton pads mixed with simple white glue. PLEASE BE CAREFUL using it around your eye area! Darken it up with some black eyeshadows and there you have it!

The reason why I use lipsticks to create the looks, it’s because a lot of people actually allergic to face paint, so let’s not risk it!

For the glaumourous part:

1. Start off by putting a little amount of Hot Pink eyeshadow in the corner of your eye.
2. Put much more in out of corner of your eye AND BLEND HONEY!
3. Top it off with your signature eyeliner and mascara!

The pumpkin part is waaay to easy:

Sweetheart, just draw a pumpkin on your lovely face and darken up the edges, right where we put our fake scars. To finish up the look (for a photo), and not get messy, photoshop some blood, and there you have it! But if you would like to go out with this face on (lmao) use a sponge with fake blood or just red paint!
