Wednesday's Homicidal Maniac.
Today I wanted to start my Halloween makeup looks and who better to kick it off than the deadpan spoopy beauty herself, Wednesday Addams.
I hold this little weirdo close to my heart and whilst most little girls wanted to be princesses (I dont blame them tbh) I wanted to be Wednesday so bad, so every single time Halloween rolls around, my mind automatically goes to her, however she is super popular this time of year so I rarely get a chance to fulfill my dream without about 50 other Wednesdays around as well but fuck it, this year I'm doing it.
I'm going to give a speedy little run down on how I created the look, so first I started with a VERY pale base foundation (not white!) but very pale then highlighted with a white greasepaint and contoured with a light brown mixed with a bruisey shade of purple.
After all was blended, I powdered (A LOT) with white translucent loose powder and filled in my brows as sharp and as dark as possible with a black powder and wax.
Then, I smoked the same bruise-like colours (reds, purples and blacks) around my eyes and lined the lid with the thinnest line possible and wacked on a whole load of mascara (I thought clumpy lashes would go well on a spoopy look).
Finally, I blanked out my lips with the same base shade then, mixed a few of the bruise shades on my fingertips warming them up and then smudged them around the edges of my lips for a 'dead' effect.
(I also added a beauty mark, but I do this with all of my looks).
