thanks, you too! maleanon here. *tips boater*

one last selfpost because my friend just sent me this and i cannot delete old pics. this shows the outfit best and shows what happens when a cellphone backlit by summer sun hits a face covered in Manic Panic. (washout)

i used cheap but well-reviewed things and lurked skincare, makeup, and shironuri threads here before attempting goth makeup. (No. 69 is my hero, taking baby steps to get there)

tutorial:

>ELF mineral infused primer (applied evenly with fingers)
>ELF Flawless Finish porcelain foundation (ditto)
>some random pale Covergirl liquid concealer (over red or discolored spots, blended with foundation, using fingers)
>Manic Panic Virgin Pressed White powder (patted on with a kabuki brush, one side of face at a time to monitor coverage, going over again 3 or 4 times)
>blended all that shit into neck and ears as i went
>NYX Sex Bomb Femme Fatale eyeshadow pallette for color on face
>brushed the matte black over eyelids and into browline using applicator in package, blending using soft brush
>blended that down upper sides of nose
>dabbed--using applicator--matte red shadow along upper and lower lashline to maximize pigment, blended down using soft brush with a bit of black or brown for darker ghoulish undereyes
>cleaned up edges of eyeshadow with qtip or finger, can't remember, just remember swiping some off
>decided face looked like Michelin Man under all the makeup, contoured cheeks gently using the black shadow, blending with small brush (this is only noticeable in 1 pic so it was not effective)
>patted more white powder on top of everything
>spritzed with ELF makeup mist and setting spray (comes out unevenly, beware)
>asked roommates if it looked ok
>they said yeah sure
>spritzed one more time with ELF setting mist

i don't remember everything because i sort of made it up as i went, but i hope that is helpful.
