Are you ready to scare the pants off your friends and family this Halloween? Look no further than this easy-to-follow makeup tutorial to transform yourself into a frightful ghoul.
Step 1: Prep your Skin
Before you begin applying makeup, start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply a thin layer of primer to help your makeup stay put throughout the night.
Step 2: Create a Base
Using a sponge or brush, apply a light-colored foundation or face paint all over your face. This will create a base for your ghoul makeup.
Step 3: Add Depth with Shadows
Using a dark gray or black eyeshadow, create depth around your eyes and cheekbones. Apply the shadow in a circular motion, gradually building up the color for a more dramatic effect.
Step 4: Make it Bloody
To create the illusion of blood, use a bright red lip liner or liquid lipstick around your mouth and nose. Blend the color out with a sponge or brush to achieve a more realistic look. You can also add fake blood to the corners of your mouth or on your clothes for an extra scare factor.
Step 5: Create Hollow Eyes
To create hollow-looking eyes, use a black eyeliner pencil or liquid eyeliner to outline your eyes in a circular shape. Fill in the circle with black eyeshadow and blend outwards for a smoky effect.
Step 6: Add Final Touches
Add any final touches to your ghoul makeup, such as fake scars, fake teeth, or even fake maggots crawling out of your wounds.
Step 7: Costume and Hair
Complete your ghoul look by adding a spooky costume and hairstyle. Consider a ripped and tattered outfit, or a classic ghost costume. For your hair, create messy, tangled locks or even add fake spiderwebs or bugs.
With these simple steps, you can transform yourself into a frightful ghoul. Now go out there and scare the living daylights out of everyone!
