I put this combo together because I want to do a specific Halloween costume. It's
gonna be in my last minute Halloween costumes video. You can maybe take a stab
at it and guess in the comments below, but you'll just have to stay tuned for
that video! It's more of a joke costume but credit goes to @livmodern for the
rainbow contouring, and every other Pinterest inspo for the skull guidelines.
I went extra pale for this look to have
the colors pop more, while simultaneously looking more deathly. Didn't need it so
much at the tip of the nose and eyes since that's going to be black, but I
didn't think about that until it was too late.
Blend and buff with a flat top foundation brush or Beauty Blender. The
rainbow contour is a combination of this old eyeshadow palette but since there
was no red, I used a lip liner for the forehead. If you're using crayon or cream
products crosshatch the color for easier blending. I also didn't realize how weird
my hairline was until now so, the more you know! And added gradient with this
orange a coral lipstick. Using the same flat top brush, blend out the red into
the hairline. At this point I was already super feeling this contour and wish I
could do this every day. With the orange-y naked heat palette, I
used sauce as my orange. I didn't have any yellow, except my gold highlight so
went right for the green as cheek contour. Use a fresh brush for every
color to prevent muddying up the pigments. Start with a light green and
focus on the edges of your face, then gradually add darker greens as you blend.
With the blue, I used a fluffy blending brush and took it down to the jawline
in a 3 shape, then with an aqua color blend the green and blue together. Since
the jawline is a large area, I saved my only other clean blush brush for purple.
And the rainbow is complete! As shadows for the skull I wanted to blend it out
into the rainbow and used purple as my gradient color. Buff that into your eyes,
tip of your nose, and under your bottom lip.
I used NYX jumbo pencil for the skull. Start super small, you don't want to fix
your mistake and rather add more black if needed. And blend for the life of you
oh my god blend. It's tough, but take it slow. Don't forget your lash and
waterline. This is optional, but I wanted some finer detail in my skull and used
an eyeliner brush to finish the sharp lines. Luckily this jumbo pencil is easy
to wipe off, if I make a small mistake. You can use the eyeliner brush to fill
in towards the outlines as well. I also used a warm brown color to blend the
black but realize maybe I should have just stuck with dark purple but whatever
blend blend blend until you make it right? I'll just go back in with dark
purple. Extend your mouth line, we want a big creepy smile. Draw your teeth. I start
my line off-center because I think it looks strange with a middle line even
though usually your two front teeth are quite centered but maybe I was going for
a Tom Cruise look.
Fill in your inner lip and blend toward the center between the lines. Starting
with light purple shadow, give yourself six-pack abs on your neck...
I mean neck bones. I'm probably going to get a call from my sister saying that
this is not anatomically correct, but you know what Jocelyn, whatever! I also almost
forgot to do my eyebrows but I intentionally left out mascara or even
falsies because my eyes are black and sunken in, and really I don't think it
made that much of a difference. And there you have it! A deathly but also very
colorful skullish look. Be sure to subscribe to this channel for more
