K so this post is gonna be super brief because:
- Paper-macheing the demogorgon brooch alone took me the first 4 episodes of Season 1 already,
- I’m not yet finished marathoning Season 2,
- I have 2 more Halloween makeup looks up my sleeve and I’m targeting to create another one tonight.
I was supposed to recreate Pigeon Pie’s look down to a tee (like I even looked forward to painting a vintage floral wallpaper pattern on my face), but then I realized that even I do not have the time (nor skills) for it sooo:
Demogorgonish brooch
- Mold an aluminum foil into a flower-like shape
- Cover with bits of tissue soaked in Elmer’s glue, air to dry
- Add colors using grey, pink & red acrylic paint
- Cry deep inside while you roll bits of white clay until they look like grains of rice because holy crap what have I gotten myself into, this is even more time-consuming than the White Walker look
- Hate yourself even more when you realize that you gotta paint a thin layer of Elmer’s glue on the Demogorgon mouth surface AND THEN attach the clay bits piece by freakin piece.
Face
- Cover your face with a layer of white Snazaroo clown paint (because yellow alone doesn’t show well on your Azn skintone)
- Apply a layer of yellow facepaint from your Flash palette
- Contour using a matte green eyeshadow from your Coastal Scents Creative Me palette
- Add drama to your eyegame by creating a smoky effect using the matte black eyeshadow from your Lorac Pro Palette
- Line your eyes and fill your brows and lips your lips with the black facepaint from your Flash palette
- Use extra girly falsies with Nichido eyelash glue
- Draw the letters and Christmas lights with a thin brush (still using the facepaint from your Flash palette)
- Soak a piece of cotton in Graftobian liquid latex and stick that to your neck
- Stick that demogorgon brooch to the cotton, add drops of fake blood, the end.
