If you have ever wondered how to look cute as a zombie, here is a simple tutorial:
1: ?Mix a small amount of MAC’s Chromacake in White with Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer in Porcelain. ?Apply over the entire face including eyebrows, eyelids and lips. ?Blend into the hairline but stop just under the jaw. Dust lightly with a translucent powder.
2: ?Use a taupe eyeshadow or MAC’s Sculpting Powder under the cheekbones, on the temples of the forehead, down the sides of the nose and under the jaw to create a more skull like face structure.
3: ?Choose an eyeshadow in a fun color like seafoam green, eggshell blue or NARS Daphne (a matte violet). ?Using a large fluff brush, apply liberally around the entire eye socket. ?Blend in all directions.
4: ?Brighten up your undead look by smudging MAC’s Eye Khol in Fascinating (bright white) around the inner corners of your eyes. ?Using the same pencil, fill in your lower waterline.
5: ?You definitely need fake eyelashes, the more exaggerated the better and don’t forget a few coats of Eyeko’s Black Magic Mascara?for added drama.
6: ?For the finishing touch, draw a thin black line with?Dior’s Art Pen?across the upper lashline.
7: ?I like Make Up Forever’s Flash Color in peach for the lips but any pale, girly shade will work. ?Use your finger to create the top of a heart on your upper lip. ?Then fill in your bottom lip just to the edges of the shape on top. ?Leave the corners of the lips white.
