Instructions

    • 1

      Pull your hair away from your face. Take the sponge and dip it in the green face paint. Cover your entire face, leaving some space around your eyes, hairline and lips.

    • 2

      Fill in the space around your eyes with your black pencil eyeliner. You can extend the lines from your eyes down toward your cheeks to give the appearance of droopy eyes. Also draw in your natural lines, such as the lines around your mouth and the horizontal lines on your forehead. Blend the lines with your fingers so they're not too harsh. Create a jagged hairline by drawing a zigzag at the top of your forehead and filling in the space above the line.

    • 3

      Shade the area under your eyes with black eye shadow to give you a gaunt or deadly look. Hollow out your cheeks by sucking them in and shading the center of your cheeks with the black eye shadow.

    • 4

      Draw a cut with stitches by drawing a line anywhere on your face with your black eyeliner. Draw short lines across the long line to resemble stitches.

Tips & Warnings

  • Once your face is painted, use a sealing powder over the paint to keep the look fresh throughout the day or evening.
