Costume And Makeup To Turn You Into A Convincing Vampiress
A realistic costume and makeup require special materials and some instructions. You won't have to waste time searching for the needed costume and makeup. It is all here for you with instructions.
You are going for an otherworldly look, a world or life that is beyond the conventional perception of reality.
A vampire is technically dead but still exists, moves and interacts with the living in a physical form.
Continue reading and you'll find a great costume and learn how to apply vampire makeup. Plus a vampire costume for your dog, if you have one.
The Vampire Look
You want to appear as if you just stepped out of a Gothic novel, a type of fiction characterized by gloom and darkness with a supernatural plot. You can be found in an eerie or lonely location such as a ruined castle.
Create the illusion that you really are pale not that you have a lot of white makeup on your face. Use a good base makeup and blend it well.
If you have a dark skin tone don't use too much white. Use a base that is two or three shades lighter than your normal base color with a light dusting of white power.
The Vampire Complexion
A vampire has a pale ashen complexion that is grayish in tone. To achieve this look you'll need to mix a small amount of gray and green into a large amount of white greasepaint.
You want a subtle look - so add very small amounts of color to the white and then test the shade.
Once you have a good base shade - apply it to all exposed areas of skin, face, ears, neck and hands. Blend the base in well, use a makeup sponge, you want a natural living dead look.
Getting That Gaunt Look
We want our vampire to have a slightly gaunt and sunken look, but not raw boned. So, lightly, apply gray greasepaint under the cheek bones and in the indented part of your temples.
Use a medium size blending brush to blend the gray into subtle shadows. Now you should have a nice sunken appearance.
I wasn't able to complete all the makeup instructions on this lens, so this is Part 1. This is where you will find Part 2, after looking at the vampire costumes.
