Halloween Look >> Dia De Los Muertos Sugar Skull

This second Halloween look is a bit more complicated and different, but really fun to create as the possibilities are endless. Hope you have as much fun as I did!

Products Used:
MAKE UP FOR EVER >> HD Microperfecting Primer
NYX Cosmetics >> Jumbo Eye Pencil Milk
Lorac >> Stay Cool Palette Black Shadow

How To:
1. Start off by priming your face with a face primer.
2. Using a white jumbo eye pencil, cover your entire face with the eye pencil, and use your finger to blend. Leave space around your eye area. Use a white eyeshadow or a translucent powder to set the face. (Tip: Make sure your lips are smooth when you cover it with the white pencil as chapped/cracked lips make it look even more dry and chapped)
3. Using a black eye pencil, draw two circles around your eyes using your eyebrows as a frame. Leave space around your eyelids. Fill in the circles with the black eye pencil, then use a matte black eyeshadow to set it.
4. Using any colored eyeshadow (I'm using orange) pat the eyeshadow on the entire upper lid up to the brow bone, and a little below the eye.
6. Line the upper and lower waterline with a black pencil. Then use a black liquid eyeliner to draw a small wing on the upper lid. Apply your favorite mascara and false lashes.
6. Using a black liquid liner, draw a tear drop shape on your nose. Then use a matte black eyeshadow to set it.
7. Next, using a pencil brush and a matte black shadow, draw an arch above both black circles. Then draw small leaves to make a branch.
8. Draw a small upside down heart in between the two arches and fill it in with the colored eyeshadow.
9. Using a pencil brush and the matte black shadow, draw three petals on your forehead, filling it in with the colored eyeshadow. Then draw a spiderweb on your chin.
10. Draw two branches below the eyes, and a tear drop with the pencil brush and matte black shadow.
11. To contour, use a fluffy flat brush and the colored eyeshadow to shade in the hollows of your cheeks. Then using the same brush, shade below the colored shadow with a matte black shadow.
12. Finally, using a pencil brush or liquid liner, draw a horizontal line from the edges of your mouth, then small vertical lines to create a stitched effect.
Outfit:
Simply wear a black dress or an all black outfit, and top things off with a matching flower crown
