The Joker is a character from the infamous Batman comics. Since the Batman movies were created, more and more people are dressing up as the Joker. It is a simple task to do. All you need is some Halloween makeup, green hair dye or a wig and an old suit.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Black makeup
  • Red makeup
  • White makeup
  1. Step 1

    Apply black Halloween makeup on the eyelids up to the eyebrow.

  2. Step 2

    Apply black makeup underneath the eye, in the slightly hollow space up to the bottom eyelashes. This will create heavy, dark under-eye circles.

  3. Step 3

    Use red makeup to create an outline for the joker smile. Smile and draw a line up the side of either smile line. Fill in with red color.

  4. Step 4

    Fill in your lips with red makeup. Fall a little below the bottom lip and a little above the top lip.

  5. Step 5

    Fill in all other areas of the face with white makeup.

Tips & Warnings
  • A red pencil is the best choice to outline the joker smile, because you have more control and a thinner line to wipe off if you mess up a bit. For added effect, use a black pencil to mark and slightly smudge to make lines in the forehead and creases in the smile and face.
  • Use only non-toxic face makeup.
