Black eyes, bruises and scabs are staples of any scary Halloween costume. Scottsdale-based Scosh® Makeup & Skincare Studio has Halloween How - to’s for creating the perfect ghoulish creature for you or your kids. Using key makeup products such as eye liner pencil, lipstick, eye lash glue and concealer along with common household items like instant coffee and raw sugar can help you create hauntingly horrific cuts, scabs and zits.
Putting a little inspired energy into making a creepy Halloween costume is a breeze with these easy step-by-step instructions.
Scabs, what you need:
Instant coffee
Raw sugar
Eyelash glue
Red lipstick
Layer a pea size amount of eyelash glue to the area of the face where you want your ‘scab’, i.e. lip area. Let sit for 15 seconds to get tacky. Mix raw sugar and coffee together and press into the top of the eye lash glue. If you use more sugar the fresher or more infected the ‘scab’ will look. If you use more coffee, the older or drier the ‘scab’. Let dry. Lift an edge, dab a bit of red lipstick under the edge of the ‘scab’ to peek out and look like blood.
Zits, what you need:
Eyelash glue, white/clear
Raw sugar
Red lipstick
Tweezers
Dab a bit of white eye lash glue on the face where you intend your desired effect, let sit 15 seconds to get tacky. Use a tweezers to place a granule of raw sugar on top. Cover with more eyelash glue, let dry. Dab a little red lipstick around the perimeter of the ‘zit’ to make it look infected.
Cuts, what you need:
Black eye liner pencil
Cream concealer, lighter than your skin tone
Red lipstick
Draw line on face where you intend your desired effect. Layer red lipstick on top of line, no wider than the black line, but definitely thicker. The thicker the lipstick on top of your ‘cut’ the fresher the effect. Apply concealer close to the ‘cut’ on each side of the ‘cut’ to show swelling.
You can add a ‘scab’ anywhere along your cut to give even more dimension.
Enjoy and have a howlingly fun Halloween!
