This is a TotalBeauty.com celebrity hairstyles article From ghostly to glam, here are some celeb-inspired hair, makeup and nail looks that'll get your creative, Halloween juices flowing. |
Hello! Today is a short photo tutorial on simple, affordable costume makeup for your upcoming parties! I'm working with Fright Night cosmetics which you can find in your local Walmart, Target or drugstores-and all products are under $10, and many are even under $5!
This photo shows what I'm working with from Fright Night:
1. The yellow and black butterfly false eyelashes
2. The hot pink hair coloring gel
3. The neon blue liquid eyeliner
Oh and a bag of candy! Thanks Fright Night for the sweet surprise!
To start with I have clean skin that is moisturized and I have a light coat of medium coverage foundation on. I didn't do any special countouring for my pretty butterfly look.
In the photo you can see me spraying on a thin layer of silver highlight from ERA Classified Cosmetics
Next I apply from a cream color wheel of bronze/gold tones that have shimmer in them a red copper tone ( my left hand index finger is pointing to it) through the crease of my eye. I also use this same color on the apples of my cheeks and blend in for a blushy look.
Now continuing the look and still working with creme products I use the Arbone F.Y.I black creme shadow for eyeliner. I am using cremes because I want a dewy look.
I use the Fright Night hair gel in hot pink to make streaks of color in my hair. The effect I am working for is flower petals floating in my hair. So I am working the gel into tear drop shaped globs.
I also have left my curly hair fairly uncombed and put clip in flowers on top.
Next I use the Fright Night cosmetics neon blue liquid liner to make large, long, winged eyeliner on the tops of my lids but not the bottom because I smudged the creme black shadow there. I also use the neon blue liquid liner to draw dots, designed and antenna to add to my pretty butterfly party look.
For lips; if I was going to a party I plan to eat so I
don't want a high maintenance mouth. I opt for Studio Gear lip laquer in a sheer pink. The lip laquer will hug the mouth and last through several meals and the color won't bleed.
Time to finish up the Fright Night cosmetics pretty butterfly look by adding these feathery false eyelashes.
The seam of the eyelashes is quite stiff so be sure and bend it several times from end to end so they begin to curve like the shape of your eye.
The stip of lashes do come with a small disposable tube of glue and if you are careful in application and removal you can get more than one wear out of these.
I have already lined my eyes, and I did not put
mascara on my lashes.
All finished! What do you think of the butterfly look? It's easy and affordable and you can make it into anything you want too! The spots on the feather false eyelashes could also work in a Cheetah cat look.
Enjoy playing with the costume makeup!
