Easy Halloween Skeleton Makeup Look


If you're looking for a super easy and quick makeup look for Halloween, you're in the right place. 

What you'll need;

1) The palest foundation you can find or
   white face paint
2) Black eyeliner
3) Black eyeshadow
4) A mixture of brushes for blending and 
   applying
5) Dark bronzer 
6) Fake eyelashes (optional)

To begin you need to first apply all the foundation/ face paint to your face, make sure to get all the way up to your hairline and down your neck. Also don't forget to add a little to your ears (especially if you're tying you're hair up!)


Next you need to start on the black definitions! I firstly applied black eye shadow over my entire eyelid and around and under the eye. Next I filled in my eyebrows with black eye shadow also, while blending the black down my nose and just slightly up on the eyebrow. (You'll see what I mean by the next picture). After this I then started on the cheekbone structure, I first bronzed my cheek bone as I would normally do when contouring my face. I then went over this with black eye shadow to make it more defined. It is also a good idea to apply some of the bronze and black eye shadow to your temples (again like you would when contouring your own face).


The nose of the skeleton was achieved by outlining the shape with a black eyeliner and filling it in with black eye shadow. Think of the shape as a flame. The mouth is a much easier and simple one in comparison to some of the more complex tutorials out there. Simply draw a black line using the eyeliner from the end tips of your mouth and then put little black lines through the line and over your lips.

 Add the false eyelashes if you wish to add an extra bit of glam to your skeletal costume.I would recommend the wonderful eyelashes from www.threadsbeauty.com. I will admit I am not the type of girl who wears false eyelashes on a weekly basis but these could make me change my mind! They are super easy to apply and stay on wonderfully.






The final touches of the false eyelashes and a skeletal leotard just finish the look off! You're now ready for that Halloween night in a flash! 




Happy Halloween!!!
