Welcome back to my blog,
Today I am going to be talking through a last minute, simple Halloween makeup look. You really don’t need a lot of skill in order to do this look, mine didn’t turn out as I wanted but it wasn’t awful.
The Things You’ll Need:
- Foundation
- Liquid latex
- Tissue
- Red lipstick
- Eyeliner
- Fakeblood
How To Achieve The Look:
- The first thing you should do is prime your face and create your usual base e.g foundation/powder. This is so when you cover the tissue in foundation it matches your skin.
- Next mark out on your face where you want the “ scratches ” to be and what size.
- Shred some tissue to the size of your desired “ scratch ” and apply a layer of liquid latex on your skin where you want them to be.
- Add the tissue to the face, building up with different layers of tissue and liquid latex to harden it as you go.
- Once you have achieved the size/level of “ scratch ” you wanted and it is dry, cover with foundation until it blends in with your skin.
- Cut down the middle of the “ scratch ” to make a deeper looking gash and fill with dark red lipstick/eyeshadow.
- Add some black liquid eyeliner into the edges/outlines of your gash to make it appear deeper in the skin.
- Finally add the fake blood, making sure it doesn’t run too far out of the cut as it won’t look as realistic.
Final look:
I then went on to add some lashes and lipstick to complete the look and make it seem more glam.
Thank you for reading! I hope this helped you achieve the look you wanted, it’s only simple but it’s still effective when you don’t have a lot of effort towards costume!
