What would you do for vampire make up? I love crazy eyeliner and was thinking something with that??
Oh hell yeah!! We love vampires!
I would say that's gonna depend on what you feel comfortable doing with your skillset, but with makeup, I like to tell people that if they have time for it, shoot well outside your skillset. Sure, it might be frustrating, but maybe you'll end up with something else you like, or if nothing at all, you'll learn something new!
That being said, here are a few inspo pics for a quicker, easier eyeliner.
Or if you're feeling super ambitious, I thought these were hella cool!
Anything with an elongated v or wing is pretty much a go-to for vampires since it'll really give you that smulder.
Typically, when I do crazier liners like this, I like to kind of mismatch them a little. I'm not a big fan of symmetry, so if I did this, I would pair the top right with the bottom left. Do one eye super pristine and just do something crazy on the other. I apply this to regular winged liner too, sometimes I'll do one up towards my eyebrow and one upside-down. I'd say just play around and don't worry too much about them matching. Also, have fun with the colors. You're not stuck with black. Try purple, red, whatever!
Want a crazy color eyeliner you don't have? Spray a little bit of water in an eyeshadow and use a brush to apply like eyeliner.
v ¡More tips! v
There are no rules to fashion or makeup, but here are a few tips!
This isn't true for everyone, but in my time, I have noticed that vampire and gothic fashion seem to typically like to keep things very angular. So you'll want to try to keep clean lines. Your lines can be blended or sharp, but keeping things straight and clean or "elegant" is pretty common.
Most of the time, when you're wearing a heavy black liner, my advice is to smudge or blend a gray or a brown or more black under it. That way, when it smears, because it will always smear, it looks intentional. 😅
When I'm doing stuff like vampires or zombies (other dead things), I like to take a red blush on a fluffy eyeshadow brush and blend it on my lower lashline or line with a red eyeliner. To take this one step further, take an eyeshadow that matches close to what your natural eye circles are (for me, it's purple) and follow circle lightly building up the color until your happy with it. If you don't naturally have dark circles (lucky bastard), try to think of the colors your bruises usually are.
Another thing to do when you're a dead character is to use your usual base and set it with a white eyeshadow on a fluffy face brush instead of your regular powder. Or if you're not a base wearer like me, lotion/primer, then powder! Again, start slow, and a little can go a long way! Especially if you have a darker complexion.
Going off that, try contouring with grays and blues instead of warm skin tone colors. It'll give more of a sunken, dead look.
If you're not a big lipstick fan, a great thing to do for vampires is to use a blood-red color in the center of your lips like this. 🔻 I like to use lipstains for this since they're more sheer.
If you want to be a little grosser with it: take your regular concealer and add just a dab of a pale blue to it and mix. Apply your red to the inside of your lips, and let it dry. Then pucker, and blend the blue concealer on your puckered lips. When you let your lips relax, you'll have a disgustingly chapped, dead lipped look.
Also, drawing veins on is always fun! Use an eyeshadow or pencil for this. Look at the veins in your wrists for color reference. Draw some sick little squiggles and tap lightly with your finger to defuse or build the color if you prefer.
Thanks for the ask, and I hope I gave you some good inspo!!
Feel free to send me any more questions, and if you feel like it, tell me how your costume went.
Have fun, make sure you feed yourself, and drink some damn water!

Why are makeup artists always go like
“For blue eyes use copper it will bring out your eyes. Oh I forgot about grey eyes. You know what just treat them like blue eyes”
Bae I’m not colorblind, I’m pretty sure grey and blue are two different colors. Do better
And if you’d like to know
Use reddish and purple eyeshadows to turn grey eyes into slightly green eyes
Use copper, gold and brown to make your eyes more blue
And my personal favorite because I think grey’s eyes best friend is black and all shades of grey. This will make your eyes stay grey

TL/DR: 37 yr old female never taught about makeup. Need advice or super easy tutorials
Hi i know this is an odd question and probably outside of what the groups about..and delete if it is please.
I am 37 years old and I have never worn much makeup (gloss, some spot coverage) because honestly I never had anyone in my life to show me. I’m super uncoordinated and honestly don’t catch on well. I also have sensitive skin. I’d love some tips for beginners or tutorials you may know of.
I’m kinda embarrassed about this to be honest…I feel really stupid, silly, and embarrassed by the fact that I can’t do a simple task like this.

makeup tips from an 18 year old who has been doing her makeup for the last 6 years and basically only uses drugstore products :)
if you're just starting out with makeup and you want to buy foundation/concealer or any other facial products, start with drugstore products. chances are you are going to have to experiment a bit before finding something that works for you. once you figure out what formulas work on your skin, you can look for similar products in higher end stores if you want to.
understand your skin tone and what looks good on your skin. most things in the makeup industry are separated into warm, cool, or neutral, which is an oversimplification, but it still helps to know which one you are. once i knew i was neutral i was able to realize what shades would better fit my skin just by looking at the bottle.
look for people online that have similar skin tones to you. normally, i would say don't rely too much on influencers because what the regular person uses make up for and what they use makeup for are very different, but it can really help, especially if you are a person of color. something that looks good on lighter skin tones, could pull too light or too warm on a darker skin tone. even the color sample is how the color looks against a lighter background. so go to people with a similar skin tones for recommendations.
use less products. there are so many products that aren't necessary, so formulate your routine with your needs in mind, and only focus on the products you need. remember anything that is safe for the lips is safe for the cheeks (check to make sure its safe for the eyelids). a pink lipstick could be a cream blush, a red lipstick could be color corrector, bronzer could be eyeshadow, mascara could be an eyeliner. plus, using the same product in different parts of the face can help create a more cohesive look.
if you're new to eyeliner, don't start with liquid eyeliner. use black eyeshadow or a pencil and clean up the edge of wing with your nail. it'll be super sharp.
don't be afraid to use your hands. you can use your hands in lieu of so many make up tools. your hands warm up the product and help it blend more seamlessly, and they are very precise. just make sure to wash your hands before touching your face.
always have a darker neutral lipliner or lipstick (i like a good brown) that you can pair with other lip products to make them work for you .
i know its hard to get started with a makeup routine in this world of tiktok makeup influencers that make you feel like you need 50 products in order to start doing make up, but you don't need all that. start by figuring out why you want to start doing makeup. maybe it's because you want to feel more confident, and you think accentuating certain parts of your face will help you feel that way. maybe you want to be more creative, and use makeup as another accessory for your look. maybe you just want to take care of your face. whatever it is, make your routine work for you. take it one step at a time. this is something you have to build up to, so take it slow and figure it out as you go. trust yourself. you got this. ;)
#makeup influencers are not the reality guys#look at your mother she wears eyeliner and same shade of lipstick every day that is more realistic#makeup is meant to make you feel better not stress you out#makeup#lipstick#makeup advice#makeup of tumblr#makeup is art

How to Avoid Cakey Foundation 💁🏻♀️
1. Use a makeup setting spray
A setting spray is an ultimate secret to a flawless makeup look. It eliminates all the residue and gives you a natural finish
2. Blend the foundation well
If your foundation looks white and chalky after application, then you’ve not blended it well. Use a damp makeup sponge to eliminate all the fine lines and streaks to give yourself even-looking skin
3. Hydrate Under-Eye Area
Does your under-eye look cakey even after following the entire base routine properly? That means it requires some hydration. A simple hack to hydrate your under-eye area is to use a face spray or a toner that contains squalane. Spritz it on your makeup sponge, dab off the excess, and gently press it under your eyes.
4. Use a face oil
One of the preliminary causes of cakey makeup is dry skin. No matter how much you prepare your skin before your makeup routine, your skin ends up looking patchy. The quick fix for this is to take a few drops of face oil at the back of your hand. Dab a makeup sponge into the oil and press it very lightly on your face, especially on the patchy areas.
5. Avoid Creased Areas!
While applying makeup, we often try to cover our fine lines with more makeup. But, you should consider doing the opposite because less is more. Avoid the areas where you have lines and creases. After you’re done applying foundation on the rest of your face, use whatever little product is left on the sponge and dab it gently on those areas.
6. Mix right Foundation w/ right primer
Not all primers work well for all foundations. So choose the right products! According to professionals, silicone-based primers work well for silicone-based foundations. Water-based primers are much more flexible and work well for both water- and silicone-based foundations.

So this might be kinda a weird question but I’m in a show and the costumer/makeup person just told us we’re required to wear false eyelashes. I’ve never worn them before and the thought of putting glue on my eyes just really freaks me out so what do I do?
You’ve got a couple options here:
1. Magnetic lashes don’t use glue! These lash strips have magnets on them, and there are two different kinds. One kind has just one strip of lashes and comes with magnetic liquid eyeliner that the magnets will stick to after the eyeliner dries. The other kind of magnetic lashes have two strips of lashes with magnets that stick to each other, and you put one strip on top of your real lashes and the other below, so your lashes are sandwiched between the magnets.
2. Eyeliner/glue hybrids! There are several eyeliners out there that double as lash glues, so you just do your liner as you normally would, place your lashes before the eyeliner dries, and it’ll hold them just like lash glue.
3. Practice with your lash glue! I promise it’s not as scary as it sounds, and I used to hate it too. The easiest way is to apply the glue along the base of the false lash strip, let it sit for a minute or two until it gets tacky, and then place it as close to your natural lash line as you feel comfortable (you can always fill the negative space with eyeliner), holding it in place until it’s dry enough to stick. Some people do have allergies to certain types of lash glue, so I’d recommend doing a bit of research to find the right glue if you have any cosmetic allergies/sensitivities.
4. Tubing mascaras! Many mascaras out there are able to create a visual effect similar to falsies, such as tubing mascaras that essentially coat your lashes in a tube of fibers, making them significantly longer and fuller. Any mascaras that mention tubing, fibers, lash-extension effects, or the like would probably be good options.

So call me a softy, I wanna make sure no one dies from halloween costume related problems this year so here are...
5 MORE ways to not kill yourself while doing your makeup for Halloween!!!!
1.) There are some pretty cool masks and prosthetics out there, especially ones that will warp you features into something else, including your mouth and nose. If you didn't know this already, you need both these things to be able to breathe! So it's not always a great idea to cover both. If you're using/wearing anything that is covering your face, QUADRUPLE CHECK THAT IT WILL NOT HINDER YOUR ABILITY TO BREATHE.
● Check to see if it has holes. If it does, that doesn't mean you're in the clear! Put it on without glue, and make sure you can breathe. Can't breathe? Poke some more holes and check again until you feel like you can take multiple deep breaths comfortably.
2.) There are also a lot of cool products out there that can do the same for your eyes! But know what you're using, and check your eye products before you get yourself in trouble.
●Are your contacts expired, ripped, scratched, dirty, infested, or cursed? Double check that they aren't.
Also, make sure your contacts source is reputable and that you trust them.
● Can you see through them? Are they comfortable? Double check that, too!
DO NOT WALK IN HEAVILY CROWDED AREAS OR DRIVE, PERIOD. IF YOU CAN NOT SEE OUT OF YOUR CONTACTS TO ANY DEGREE WHATSOEVER!!!!
● Using colored eye drops? Great! Here are a few things to know about those.
If it's your first time using them, do a patch test on your wrist, if you have no reaction try them before you plan on using them.
Make sure your eye drops are up to date and not expired.
Do not use them if they smell AT ALL! They most definitely shouldn't smell like alcohol!
Most colored eye drops are not contact friendly, so check the product you're using. If it doesn't say explicitly that you can use them with contacts, assume you can't.
Have sensitive eyes? You should probably avoid these.
Know that the specific Krylon brand of colored eye drops are extremely realistic! So be prepared to be asked if you're okay a lot! 😅
Also, for the love of everything earthly, PLEASE DON'T INJECT STUFF INTO YOUR EYEBALLS!!!!
3.) KNOW WHAT YOU ARE USING!!!!!!!
I know this was in the last post, but I forgot about this part of it! A lot of dollar store or halloween store products may contain stuff like BHA & BHT, Parfum – aka fragrance, Coal Tar Dyes, Petroleum, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, DEA & related chemicals, Dibutyl Phthalate, Parabens, Siloxanes, PEG Compounds and their contaminants, Triclosan, Formaldehyde releasing preservatives. Some of which can cause irritation while some have been declared toxic by the American CDC, so ALWAYS CHECK YOUR LABELS!!!!!
4.) Craft products (paints, markers, etc.) ARE NOT MAKEUP!!!!!!!
There are absolutely no craft products that double as makeup products! I don't care if it says nontoxic, washable, or anything else. IT IS NOT FOR YOUR SKIN!
5.) Just 'cause it says "syrup" doesn't mean you can eat it.
● So if you've ever been to a party store, chances are you've seen "mouth safe" fake blood, "edible" fake blood, and regular fake blood. Like a lot of people, you've probably assumed there was no difference, but I am here to tell you there's a BIG difference!
Please, please do not put regular fake blood in your mouth!!!!! Let's just say there's a good reason it doesn't have a "mouth safe" or "edible" lable, okay? Not for mouth!!!
● And mouth safe blood doesn't necessarily mean it's "edible", it's fine to be in your mouth for a short amount of time but it's not meant to be ingested, keep that in mind. Sometimes, mouth safe bloods are edible, so just check the label.
● Edible fake blood is totally cool to ingest. Just be aware that most of these are made with sugars and syrups, so if you are diabetic or have any other food sensitivities, as always check the label!
If you have any questions about anything, feel free to reach out through asks or comments! Once again, this is a secondary blog, so responding comments will come from my main (@morgynemberisagenderfluiddaddy )
Other than that, please have a fun and SAFE halloween!

I am a lipgloss/lip product girly. The only makeup I wear is mascara and lipgloss and I like trying out new products. A few weeks ago at Target I saw this Mac Cosmetics lipgloss and it was so pretty (fun fact, I have wanted a Mac lipgloss since I was 12!) Anyways, my mom suggested getting it for my birthday in April, and I am curious if anyone who follows me has tried their lipgloss and what their thoughts on it are. It’s a pricy lip product so I want it to be worth it. I don’t typically use higher end makeup. Thank you in advance!

Makeup Help
Hey folks!
So i am just starting out learning about makeup, i know next to nothing. Ive always gravitated towards the alternative/goth lifestyle and wanted to give a go at trying out different looks in that area of makeup.
Anyway, i wanted to know what everyone would recommend when starting out? I already have foundation (Mayballine Fit Me, Light ivory) and some eyeliner, thats about it. I dont have any brushes or anything to even apply it aside from my hands.
Any help you could give would be amazing!
