Witch Makeup Ideas to Conjure Up a Spellbinding Look

Transform into a mischievous witch with a green-and-brown mottled base, exaggerated wrinkles, and dramatic black eyeliner. Add heavy brows, purple face paint brackets, dark red lipstick with black outline, and finishing moles for a spellbinding effect.

Directions

  1. Use a facial sponge to apply green base makeup, dabbing it on your cheekbones, brow bone, and chin for concentrated color.
  2. With a clean sponge, dab light brown makeup over the green to add dimension and create a slightly mottled effect.
  3. Using a black eye pencil, draw deep wrinkle lines: extend a line from the inner corner of each eye downward and outward, then add a branch to form an upside-down Y on each cheekbone.
  4. Apply heavy black eyeliner to both upper and lower lash lines, extending the upper line about half an inch beyond the outer corner of the eye.
  5. Darken your lashes with a coat of black mascara to intensify the eye look.
  6. Use the eyeliner to draw a thick black line over each eyebrow to darken them.
  7. Draw short lines upward from the top edges of the eyebrows to simulate heavy, hairy brows.
  8. With purple face paint, draw lines on either side of the mouth, running from the nose down to the chin.
  9. Put on a layer of dark red lipstick.
  10. Trace the outline of your lips in black.
  11. Add small black lines radiating from the lips to create wrinkle effects around the mouth.
  12. Finally, dot a few black moles on your chin and nose.
