Make any costume spooky this Halloween by adding a Halloween face paint!

 

In collaboration with Nikki from @brightsideofnikki we have created easy step-by-step tutorials that will transform you into one of 3 spooky characters. The best part is, you don't need to be a professional artist to achieve the looks  🙌

 

Happy Painting and don't forget to tag us in your photos as we want to see your creations 👻








Look 1 - Cat

1. Using a sponge and the white paint, paint a semi-circle above the lips.

2. With your first chosen colour, using a sponge or brush apply it to the bottom part of face.

3. Then with your second chosen colour apply it to the upper part of the face with the child’s eyes closed, using the sponge to blend smoothly. Or just apply the one colour!

4. Use a baby wipe to clean up the edges if you need to, but they don’t need to be perfect.

Skeleton Face Paint

All you need to become a Skeleton this Halloween is some some Black Face Paint!

1. Start with a medium sized brush and black paint to outline the eye sockets, try to follow the natural bone structure of the face for the best results.

2. Make sure they are as even as possible!

3. Then paint the nose, think of a tear drop shape.



4. With a smaller brush if available, extend the mouth line and then paint the teeth.

5. Now for the final touches we paint in the cracks of the skull, you can get creative and do as many as you like!

6. And you are done and looking bad to the bone!
