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.

Zombie Face Paint

Turn any Costume into a Zombie!

1. Starting with a sponge, apply white face paint to your face, this doesn’t need to be perfect. You want to keep it semi-translucent, not a full coverage. 

2. Then mix yellow, blue, and white to get that zombie green, and apply this to the face with the same sponge. Be sure to leave some white as this will help create dimension.

3. Then mix red with a small amount of blue to create a blood like colour, using a small fluffy brush apply this to the eye lid area.

4. Then the lips and some parts of the face.

5. Add more blue into the paint mix to deepen the colour, then apply this with the same fluffy brush to the same areas as before. 

6. To blend or soften the edges you can use a sponge or your fingers.
