"Now, that is our Goth look. Like I said, there's all different ways that you can do the eyes and all different colors you can use on the lips, but this is the basic Goth look. This is kind of like my inspired Goth look for my model. The basics again to go through are the lips. You need a dark, kind of blood red eggplant lipstick and lip liner. If you like the glossy look, which it looks great on her, you can add a little gloss to it to give a little bit of shine. Pale, pale skin. No blush, pale foundation and powder, but not something that doesn't match her skin tone either. It doesn't look like her face is that much paler than her body. Then the eyes, very important. Black, black eyeliner, black eye shadow, lots of mascara, and really extenuating the eyelashes with the mascara, and the liner inside the eye as well. It gives a really, really nice smokey look. That's basically it for us. My name is Jenny Karl and this is Expert Village. If you want to see my other how to's, you can go to expertvillage.com.
