Summary: Use white makeup on the neck for a Joker like Heath Ledger's. Apply Joker neck makeup with a makeup artist in this free costume makeup video.
"Alright, next we're going to be extending the white makeup down in to the neck. And this is going to be applied very similar to the face and it's an easy step to overlook, but I don't want to stop the white makeup. See how it's a really strong line here? I don't want that, I want more blotch and happen stance. So basically we're going to extend it down here, again blotching. There's going to be areas of skin which are going to show through, that's totally fine. Now guys, not so much to the female Joker's out there, but guys, make sure that you're clean shaven for this. If you have a little bit of stubble, often times the makeup will get caught on that, it otherwise won't look good, it could get extra irritated. So we're going to basically extend the white makeup down on to the neck, and then very, very quickly, blotchy, have hazard fashion. If you find yourself getting a little bit low on the white makeup, no problem, go back and refill. What I, what you want to really avoid though is this really strong line, and see how hard this is to get rid of, because even with all the makeup we've put on there, it's still kind of there. You can still see, when, when the face goes from the top of the chin underneath the chin, this angle here is sometimes really hard to cover up. So you can see, I'm pulling out all, you know, taking out all the punches. I really want to have a thick couple areas of makeup here to make sure that it's like not that line. Again, that we're just having more of an organic, free flowing flow to our Joker's face."
