Instructions

Scary Witch

1. Dip a makeup sponge in green greasepaint and dab it all over your face.

2. Screw up your face and use a thin-tipped makeup brush to trace wrinkles, creases and fine lines with brown greasepaint. This will create the look of a haggard old woman.

3. Draw a brown wart on your nose.

4. Brush brown greasepaint over and around your eyebrows to create unkempt, bushy eyebrows.

5. Apply black lipstick or brown greasepaint over your mouth.

Glamorous Witch

1. Dip a makeup sponge in green greasepaint and dab it all over your face. Apply cosmetic glitter over the paint for a shimmery appearance.

2. Draw over your natural eyebrows with black eyebrow pencil to make spooky yet attractive arched eyebrows.

3. Line your eyes with black eyeliner to make Egyptian-style cat eyes. Trace over the top of the eyeliner with white greasepaint to make your eyes stand out.

4. Apply black lipstick to your mouth.
