Pretty Gothic Makeup

MAKE UP TIPS FOR THE BLEAK:
Done badly, Gothic makeup and dress can look painfully stupid. The following are some suggestions for how to do it well.

1. Whiteface should create the illusion that you really are that pale, and not that you have a bunch of makeup from Wallgreen's caked all over your face. Use a good base: not even the most gifted makeup artist can get the necessary coverage from inferior makeup. If you have dark skin, don't try to do whiteface unless you're going for a very stylized harlequin look or are willing to put makeup on all exposed skin areas. Try using a base just one or two shades lighter than your own color, and then put white powder over it. This will give you an ethereal, almost grayish cast.

After spending money on a decent base, take the trouble to apply it evenly. It's appalling how many Goths overlook something so basic and vital to their entire aesthetic. Equally bad and unfortunately as common is the tendency to overpowder and to end one's pallor at the jawbone. Such mistakes are just inexcusably stupid. Don't make them.

2. On the subject of eyeliner, liquid is better, but if your hands shake, by all means use the most expensive pencil you can afford. Cheap pencils go on faint and will smudge after an hour. Do something original with your eye makeup: cobwebs or bat wings drawn across the cheek look silly on anyone over the age of fifteen. On those under fifteen, however, such adornments are sure to attract the lecherous attention of jaded Goths in their late twenties and early thirties who will probably give you free speed if you prove sufficiently pliable.

3. Find a shade of lipstick not everyone else is wearing. Theatrical supply stores are the best for really deep shades of congealed-blood red. Apply it with a lip brush for a more precise and severe effect.

4. Strive for originality in your costume. For those doing vintage looks, realize that both the eighteenth century and the Victorian era have been done to death. The Twenties, Thirties, and Forties are largely untapped by Goths and have great potential. One could dress as an emaciated, opium-addicted flapper from the Aleister Crowley set or pose as the Black Dahlia, a would-be actress from the Forties whose gimmick was that she dyed her hair black and would wear only black clothing; her ghastly mutilation and murder remain unsolved to this day. Also remember that black is not the only color. Deep blues, grays, and greens, as well as blood-red, purple, and ivory, can be equally striking.

5. If you have scars on your wrists from suicide attempts, by all means display them proudly. The same goes for bruises, cuts, and track marks. Abscesses, however, should always be coyly veiled in filmy black fabric.

Go sooty blacks and dark reds. You can get a really interesting look by using dark red for the eyes. Avoid using anything too shiny or shimmery, except for maybe some shine gloss for the lips. Keep blush really dramatic and don't be afraid to use it on the forehead to alter face shape.Don't use black lips if you are going for a pretty look. Too much black around the mouth looks dead, not pretty. Also, using black eyeliner to had filigree or swirls off of the corner of the eyes can look very gothic and pretty.

It IS possible to be pretty and goth, no matter what some stereotypical people say...mac has alot of dark colors in their makeup, and if you're in a hurry you can probably find dark lipstick in the makeup aisles at grocery stores...

Found a website for ya. I like how the girl in the first image looks. She's got some dark eyemakeup going on, nude lips, no blush. Her hair is a little bit piecey, and I like how she did her bangs.

I dont think anyone just makes a "Gothic" makeup. Just use blacks, greys, and dark purples, oh and reds too.

For the gothic part where dark black eyeshadow, black mascara, black eyeliner but for the pretty part where dark blush and dark red lipgloss or lipstick.
