Apply Corpse Paint

Beauty : Teens And Beauty

This is great for things like halloween parties!
"Corpsepaint" is a specific style of makeup, the purpose of which is to look like a corpse. It is a favorite among black metal bands such as Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth, as well as individuals who are part of the goth/punk scene.

It is fairly easy to apply and you probably have most of the requirements in your attic or bathroom drawer without even knowing it. This includes "white heat," red toned eyeshadow, black eyeliner, and black lipstick (optional).



Steps
Apply a thin layer of "white heat," or any other white-ish concealer, on your face. Make sure you use enough to make you seem at least two shades lighter than your natural skin tone.
Liberally apply either red or burgundy eyeshadow around your eyes. There should be enough to cover the entire space between your eyebrow and eyelash. Apply a reasonable amount beneath your eye.
Apply a thick layer of black eyeliner around your eyes. It helps to bring out the eyeshadow and your natural eyebrows.
Black lipstick is optional. If this is ignored, at least make an effort to mute the color of your lips.
Take care to dab your jaw line and neck with white heat, lighter as you go down your neck.
