How To Do Deer Costume Makeup

I'll be the first to admit that Halloween makeup tutorials have always intimidated me on an extreme level, mostly because the thought of having to essentially create "art" on myself sounded impossible.

I scout in awe at how talented these YouTubers are at creating beautiful work, using their own face as the canvass. Then, I decided to face my fears and attempt a fairly like shooting fish in a barrel Halloween costume idea this year: a deer costume. The best part is that it looks intricate and complicated, but I promise information technology's very like shooting fish in a barrel. Anyone can try information technology (with a piddling patience)!

I teamed upwardly with the ever-then-talented Caroline Hernandez, senior creative person for MAC Cosmetics, for a step-by-footstep Halloween tutorial on how to turn myself into a deer. Here goes nothing!

ane. Fill up in your brows so that they're thick, defined and drawn toward your olfactory organ.

Make certain to choose a shade similar to your natural brow.

2. Apply mascara but on the top lashes and try an exaggerated cat eye with black liquid liner.

Draw the liner so that it comes outward and really opens upwardly your eyes.

three. Y'all want your eyes to await as big and open every bit possible, so also draw a black line underneath your natural eye.

If y'all're afraid of messing upward the line, draw a tester line first with a lighter shade then become over information technology with the blackness cream liner.

4. For the perfectly sweet deer nose, commencement by using brown eye shadow and a brush to depict a line down your olfactory organ, starting at your eyebrows.

So draw a brown line underneath your cheekbones for added definition. It'south sort of like an exaggerated contour that y'all won't fully blend in.

5. For deer cheeks (so cute), you desire a potent peach blush.

Don't be afraid to cover the apples of your cheeks and sweep information technology upward toward your ears.

6. Adjacent step, add faux lashes — even on the bottom!

In one case the lesser lashes were added on, I felt instantly more like a deer.

7. Finish off the nose.

Apply a blackness eyeliner pencil to draw around the nasal tip and down the center line to the lips.

viii. My deer freckles were next, maybe one of the cutest components of this await.

A pale beige pencil liner is the perfect color for the freckles, followed by white centre shadow directly on top of each dot, applied with a cotton swab.
