Any suggestions? And where can I get that kind of makeup?

Answer 1

You will need a good, light-reflective foundation for that translucent pale skin - the base is very important here to set off the colours and not look 'busy'. You will need to make your skin flawless!! Don't get a colour lighter than your skin-tone though, you will look very painted and possible gothic if you do.
Pale lip gloss for the lips - MAC do some great ones.
While talking of MAC they do some really great strong eyeshadow colours, and fake eyelashes and a cracking range of very good mascaras. Their gel eyeliner in Blacktrack is by far and away the best eyeliner out there - easy to apply with intense colour and it can be blended, and it stays all day with no running or smudging.

Don't be tempted to mix your eyeshadow with water, moisturiser or vaseline. It makes it impossible to get that smooth blend and vaseline will only make it 'wet-look'. To get that intensity build up the colour with a sponge-tip applicator. Long handled ones are much easier to use. Blend the edge away to nothing with a firm, soft brush. Be very aware of the shape of the shadow as you apply it - follow the picture rather than putting it where you normally would!
Apply the eyeliner with a synthetic angled eyeliner brush - cotton buds will not get a smooth finish or a sharp shape. You can soften the edge a little with the cotton bud but apply with a brush - its easier and more accurate. Make sure you take the colour right down to the inner corner of your eye for that super-sharp shape.

best of luck!

Hi

First of all start with the eye shadow. In both they use very strong bright colours. These sorts of colours you can get from make up makers like urban decay and barry m. If you dont have anywhere selling these makes near you look for them online, on ebay or go into your nearest make up selling store and just see if any have bright colours.

You can make eyeshadows appears darker and more stricking if you mix them with a bit of vaseline or moisteriser.

Apply lots to your eyelid, then apply the eyeliner as shown in the pic. Use a black eye liner.

Her eye lashes are fake ones. You can buy these in the same shops that sell makeup. They come with a guide telling you how too attach them and come in different lengths - her are pretty long ones.

Good luck :)

Answer 4

liquid eyeliner is the best to use but its like painting on your face. get a good brand even if it means spending more - clinique is the best for eye makeup - its hyperallergenic which just means its less likely to irritate your eyes. and the eye shadows are a bit harder to find and very expensive for good ones - chanel has a great yellow. but try everything in the store before spending the money, in case your skin reacts.

Answer 5

black eyeshadow, black liquid eyeliner and false eyelashes. Use the black eyeshadow as a thick eyeliner and also put liquid black eyeliner over it. Go to Ulta or gloss.com for makeup online
