Skincare Prep for Your Glam Skeleton Makeup

How you do your skin care prep on the morning before applying your glam skeleton makeup for Halloween is going to be crucial for its longevity. Look at it this way, if you are using oil-based makeup products, you should opt for oil-based skin care. And for water-based makeup, use water-based skin care. Start the day with a deep cleanse with an exfoliating product. This will remove any debris that might interfere with your makeup. Next, apply a hydrating primer so that your makeup can better grip to your skin.

Start the tutorial by applying your preferred makeup base as usual. You can block out your eyebrows with the help of a simple glue stick that is used for makeup. Also, apply powder to your brows to protect them, as we will be applying lash glue later on.

Now for the tricky part – sketching out the skull shape! The key to succeeding with this step is allowing for your facial anatomy to guide you. It would be easier for you if you used a lip liner for this. Shade in the darker areas of the skull by using the shades Fade, Wreck and Forbidden from your Secret Treasure Palette. Thanks to the shading makeup technique, the embellishments we will apply later will stand out even more.

Applying the Gems & Using a Dark Nude Lipstick

How to apply the sparkly gems to your face? Do it in the shape of a skull with the help of eyelash glue. Make sure that the gems you are using are based on the tones from the eyeshadow palette. Here, different shades of gold and black are placed. Finish off your glam skeleton makeup with a glam lip. A dark nude would work perfectly here. You can try the Rust Nude Lip Kit.
