This skull makeup tutorial walks you through four simple steps to transform into a skeleton. Start with a white base, then add black eye sockets, a nose cavity, and tooth outlines for a complete look.

Directions

  1. Cover your entire face with a layer of white face paint to create the skull base.
  2. Use black face paint to darken the areas around your eyes, shaping them into hollow eye sockets.
  3. Paint the area where your nose is with black to form the skull's nasal cavity.
  4. Draw the outline of teeth along your mouth and extend lines down your jawline using black paint.
