How to Do An Easy Vampire Makeup for Halloween?

• Step 1: Create a Pale, Flawless Base: Apply primer, follow with one or two shades lighter foundation. Conceal and set with translucent powder.
• Step 2: Sculpt with Cool-Toned Contour: Contour jawline, temples, and cheekbones with greyish-brown shade.
• Step 3: Bold Smokey Eyes with a Touch of Red: Prime lids. Apply light brown, dark brown, then black shadow; blend. Add red to the outer edges. Apply liner and smudge. Finish with mascara.
• Step 4: Define the Brows: Create dark, arched brows using pencil or pomade.
• Step 5: Blood-Stained Lips and Teeth: Line with dark liner, fill with red lipstick. Add black shadow to the corners. Fangs & blood.
• Step 6: Finishing Touches: Set with spray.

Step 1: Create a Pale, Flawless Base

• Start your vampire face makeup with clean, moisturized skin. Prep the base with a matte primer for a long-lasting makeup finish. Let it absorb!
• Follow with a full-coverage foundation that is one or two shades lighter than your natural color and apply evenly across your face, neck, and ears. This is crucial to achieve the pale, lifeless vampire complexion.
• The next step in the vampire face makeup involves adding a brightening effect with a lighter shade of concealer. Apply it under the eyes, around your lips, chin, and a little bit on the forehead. Blend well.
• Set the base with lots of translucent powder for a smooth, matte finish.

Step 2: Sculpt with Cool-Toned Contour

To achieve that sharp, undead quality in this easy vampire makeup, contour with greyish-brown or ashy tones. Hollow out your jawline, temples, and cheekbones to get the          otherworldly appearance.

Pro Tip: Avoid using any warm bronzers.

Step 3: Bold Smokey Eyes with a Touch of Red

• Create a basic vampire makeup for eyes with a touch of black and red hues. Prep the eyelid with concealer.
• Create a smokey eye makeup look with shades like light brown (on the eyelid), dark brown (in the crease), and black eyeshadow. Blend everything in!
• Even for simple vampire makeup, the eyes need to be entrancing and captivating. Add subtle sweeps of deep red or burgundy on the outer edge for that blood-kissed appearance.
• Follow the same steps on your lower lash line. Lastly, smudge black eyeliner along the lash and waterline.
• Finish this Halloween eye makeup with generous coats of volumizing mascara.
  
  
  

Pro Tip: To create a haunting attraction, add false eyelashes. You can also wear contact lenses in the shades of classic reds, solid blacks, and whites for that ghostly appearance.

Step 4: Define the Brows

Evoke the eeriness of a classic vampire look with dark, pointed eyebrows. Draw arched yet thicker brows using an eyebrow pencil or pomade. This draws attention to your vampire face makeup, balancing the dramatic eye look.

Step 5: Blood-Stained Lips and Teeth

• Even the very basic vampire makeup looks are incomplete without red lips. Line with a dark shade of lip liner (preferably black lip liner).
• Fill with a deep red or burgundy lipstick.
• Apply black eyeshadow to the corners of your mouth for added dimension.
• To put the finishing touches on your vampire makeup, apply fake vampire fangs and dab fake blood drops in the corners of your mouth for that just-fed look.

Step 6: Finishing Touches

Finish your vampire makeup look with a makeup setting spray to ensure the look lasts through dancing and laughter.

Additional Facial Details

Dial up the drama with additional vampire face makeup details:

• Veins: Draw fake bluish-purple veins from the edges of eyes, temples, or jaw.
• Shading: Shade additional contour on neck, hollows, and collarbones to boost the vampire makeup look further.

Vampire Costume & Hair for Halloween

• Dress in Victorian or Gothic clothes. Look for a high-collared cloak, lace, dark velvet, ruffled shirt, or corset.
• Use accessories like a blood-red pendant or antique cameo jewellery.
• Style your hair smooth or untamed, with the odd stray ‘dead tendrils’.
• Lastly, paint your nails in a black hue or, for a realistic effect, wear pointed, long, artificial black colored nails.
