Hi everyone! My name is Véronique.
I'm a makeup artist at Cirque since 8 years.
This year, I decided to take on
the creative Halloween makeup challenge
the Cirque way.
Today's character is Crystal Skull makeup.
I'll show you, step by step, how to achieve this look.
Check out the description below
to see the list of products and tools you'll need to complete the look.
So the first step is obviously the foundation.
You can use a liquid foundation, a cream base foundation,
whatever foundation you like.
I prefer to use a liquid foundation
just because I would like to have
something a little bit more sheer.
I like to apply it with a brush
starting in the centre of the face
so you can cover a little bit more the imperfection of the skin.
As usual, the imperfections are found in the center of the face.
We start in the center and we stretch softly
until the edge of the face.
Don't forget to blend down the neck and a little bit on your ears.
You can swirl, you can do stripes,
you can do whatever movement you like,
just spread it out.
Once you've applied the foundation
pretty much everywhere on your face with the brush,
you can use a little sponge, a wet sponge
to even out everything
just to make sure there is no lines
or weird clumps of foundation,
just make it all soft.
Once the foundation is done,
you can go on with your highlight.
I used a liquid highlight
just because I wanted something a little bit more sheer,
more fashion, less cakey than a cream highlight,
but between you and me,
you can obviously use a cream highlight if you want.
Just make sure that you use at least
three shades lighter than your skin tone
so it makes a contrast.
You can dab along your cheekbones,
the bridge of your nose,
the bottom of your forehead,
around the mouth, on your chin.
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
And of course with your sponge,
dab, dab, dab, dab, dab, dab, dab, dab, dab,
just to make sure everything is nice and blended.
You don't want to see any outlines
between your highlight and your foundation.
So once your foundation and highlights are done,
you need to set your makeup.
You'll need for this a powder puff and translucent powder,
setting powder actually.
You need to apply the powder with a powder puff
and fold it like a little taco
and then just press everywhere.
This will make the difference between
makeup that lasts for 5 minutes or 5 hours.
Make sure you powder under your eyes specifically
and on your forehead,
everywhere that creases the most.
Touch up with the egg
and powder puff;
egg, powder puff; egg, powder puff;
this way, you make sure there's no creases on your makeup.
Once you have powdered your face generously,
just use a big brush and remove the excess.
The makeup will take the powder it needs
and simply take off the rest.
So, once you've powdered your makeup,
then you're ready to go on for the contouring.
Yay!
For the contouring,
you'll need a big fluffy brush with a bit of firmness
and some copper powder.
Don't use something too orangey or too light,
you want to have something more brownish-copperish,
and shiny, why not?
So you want to go on your temples,
under your cheekbones,
on the side of your nose,
in the crease of your eye.
Where else?
I think that's pretty much it.
Well, you'll see.
So while you apply,
just do back-and-forth movements with your brush
so you can blend.
Oh yeah! Under the jawbone.
I forgot that part.
So, you apply and you blend, and you apply and you blend.
Just follow your bone structure so this will enhance your natural skull shape.
When you get to your smaller areas,
like the side of the nose and the crease of the eye,
use a smaller brush.
Just make sure you use something very fluffy,
so that the bristles are not too firm, otherwise it won't really blend,
it will just make lines.
You don't want lines, we want blending.
So, once you've done your contouring,
you can come back with more pigmented copper colour,
just a little bit under your cheekbone and on your temples.
Follow also your hairline.
This will just give a little bit more richness to the colour,
it will be less dull and flat.
After contouring, guess what?
Highlight!
Yeah, so I'll switch with a highlight powder,
something not too bright though, just really shimmery.
I'll go along my cheekbones
and the base of my forehead, the bridge of my nose,
around the mouth, on the chin.
Did you notice these are the exact same place
we applied the liquid highlight before?
Now, we're ready to work on the eyes.
I kind of start with the plum colour,
something more matte because I want to have a little bit more depth,
and you can use a round fluffy brush.
Yay, fluffy!
Because you want to have something blended.
So, start applying your colour at the outer corner of the eye
and then push along your eye crease.
And the secret of blending is
back-and-forth, back-and-forth, back-and-forth.
Once you've worked on the top of your eyes,
you can switch with something,
a brush that's a little bit more tight and thin
to do under your eyes.
Same thing as on top,
you start at the outer corner of the eye
and then you push towards the inner corner.
Oh yeah, use your fluffy brush just to finish your blending.
After the plum colour, you can switch with a dark brown.
Use a brush that is a little bit more firm
so you can have something more defined.
I came back with a fluffy brush just to blend,
that was a mistake.
Yeah, there you go, back on track.
So, you add a little bit more dark at the outer corner of the eye,
just a little bit smaller than your plum,
so then you'll have again more deepness in your colour.
It's all about dimension here,
so the lighter color which was a copper was thicker,
then you switch with the plum like medium-thick
and then you switch with the dark brown like something a little bit smaller.
While you've done this,
you can also continue along your lash line.
Start defining your eyes.
Oh yeah! I was thinking,
with the plum colour,
wouldn't that be great to add some depth
under the cheekbones and on the temples?
Yeah!
You can use the same brush that you applied the copper,
just go in the centre of your copper
and blend, blend, blend, blend, blend, blend.
Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth…
Seriously, the secret of blending is a lot of movement and low pressure.
Oh yeah, you can add shadow under the tip of the nose.
That's really nice.
Oh, and the crease of the chin.
My God, so much little details.
Oh yeah, one last place,
at the inner corner of the eye.
Yeah, I kind of forgot,
but that really adds something.
Sometimes when you do your contouring,
you realize that your highlight really miss contrast,
so this is where I realized
I should use a white shimmery powder
just on top of my highlight zones
just to give more punch.
The same thing as the contouring.
The previous highlight is something wider and larger,
but this white pigment will go just on smaller zones.
So the same areas that you applied the highlight before,
but a little bit smaller.
So it's like the highlight of the highlight.
Yay! Now we're ready to work on the lips.
So, for the lips,
seriously you can use anything you'd like.
I personally prefer liquid lipsticks,
you know the one that dries,
you can wear it, you don't feel it,
you can drink, you can give kisses
and you don't have to worry about anything.
So, I like to apply it with a brush,
even though it comes with a little applicator
just because the brush is a little bit more precise.
So, use the tip to really do your outline.
Oh yeah, that was tough.
It's really hard to have an even lip
because naturally we do not have even lips.
So with the brush, it's easier to fill those little gaps
and trick a little bit your lip liner.
After that, yeah, just fill it in.
Alright! Now, we're ready to continue our eyes.
So for this, just use your liquid liner.
Nothing specific,
you can use a gel liner, you can use a liquid liner,
you can use like a pen liner,
you can even use like water-based facepaint makeup to do your liner.
Seriously, it doesn't really matter. Just use what you like.
Once you've done your black liner,
then you can use your dark brown powder,
you know the one that you used around your eyes previously?
So, just use a firm brush and blend the top of your black liner.
This way, you'll have like a mini smoky effect.
And then once you're there,
why not push it into your eye crease?
Not all the way, but just a little bit.
Oh yeah, I'm touching up my liner because I realized it was,
not so clean.
You're able to come back if needed.
So, once you've done the top of your eyes,
you can use the same eyeliner under your eyes.
Go as close as possible to your lash line.
If you feel comfortable,
you can even apply it in the water line zone.
Once you've done your black line,
you want to go back with your brown powder
and blend it.
This is very important to blend it before it dries,
because once the black line is dry,
forget it,
you're not going to be able to have a nice blending.
Alright, now that we're done with the dark side,
let's switch to the light.
Yep, so we're gonna use the white eyeliner.
You can use also a white water-based makeup,
this is actually what I use, with a mini, mini, mini brush,
just to get close as possible to the inner corner.
What I feel that is really nice is also to shift that white
just above your black liner, near the inner corner.
I don't know if you follow me.
And before it dries, once again,
you want to use your white pigment,
you know the one that we've done the highlight of the highlight before?
So, simply dab over the inner corner of the eye before the white dries.
This will give a little shimmer
and it will blend also the ending of the white.
It just makes it more soft.
Yay! The party begins!
The skull shape.
Alright, so for this, you need water-based makeup.
Mix it with water, of course,
and use a brush that has the shape of a drop.
You want it more round and thick at the base,
going like really pointy at the ending.
So, simply follow your natural bone structure.
So, oh yeah, a trick:
when you press on the brush, it will make thicker lines,
but if you go just very gentle, it will make mini lines.
This way, you can have a line that goes from thick to thin.
Ah, look at this! Wooo!
Once you're done with the white lines,
you can now switch with black eyeliner,
just to add a bit more contrast,
especially under the cheekbones.
Yes, contrast!
Alright, now we're ready for the teeth.
You can use the same drop-shaped brush type,
but a little bit smaller,
so you can have lines that go from thick to thin
in only one brush stroke.
So, press and release,
press and release…
There you go.
After that, you can go around the skull shape
just to add lines,
just to give a bit more funkiness.
Go crazy.
Just follow your instinct.
After a while, just have a look at your makeup.
Just check if you need more contrast, if you need more blending.
Like here, I felt that the black lines were a bit like,
ugh, too sharp, too harsh,
so I used a little bit of black powder, just to soften it up
and after look around,
you can add brown powder next to the white lines
just to give more contrast.
I realize I put also black lines under my jawbone
just so it kind of separates the head from the neck.
But go crazy, just have a look, turn your head,
just see if something needs to be more contrasted.
Ah, my favorite part: the crystals!
Alright, so I don't know if you ever glued crystals before,
but a few tips here. Use eyelash glue.
You can use a normal latex one,
but if you want more durability, just use a latex-free lash glue.
This way, it will last a little bit longer,
especially if you're going to a party or a parade.
So, the big ones I just use my fingers,
but when you get to smaller stones,
what I recommend you is use the back of a brush,
like the back tip of a brush.
Put the glue on your face,
then with a tweezer, grab your crystal
and just glue it over the glue.
This will save you so much time
and so much crystals rolling on the floor.
When the stones are glued, then you have an overall view.
I felt it was a little bit dull,
so I wanted to add a bit more bling.
Yeah right, more bling.
So, I added dots.
You can add swirls, lines, flowers…
I'm just kidding, do whatever you like
and have a look of what you want to be more detailed.
So, since this makeup is all about contrast,
I realized that my eyes were missing a little bit of contrast,
so what's the opposite of the dark is the light, right?
So, I use a little bit of the white pigment over the eyes
just to give more punch,
so it really makes a contrast between white and black.
And after that, same thing on the lips,
a little bit of white pigment,
just so it shines and give more volume.
Now, guess what? The lashes!
Seriously, this really makes a difference
when you're doing a makeup just to complete the look.
Check this out.
Oh, I'm having a little bit of trouble here.
Use of course lash glue,
use the tip of the brush,
not the bristles but the opposite of the brush
and brush it along the edge of the lash.
So, the left one was a little bit better. Actually, much better.
So, the trick is hold your lash between your fingers like in a sandwich,
start applying near the inner corner following our lash line and then
boop-boop-boop-boop-boop until the outer corner.
There you go. You can brush them upward,
just make sure they're even.
There we go.
Ah, much better!
So, we're pretty much at the end of the makeup for now.
So, you can have an overall view.
Just check if you're missing contrast anywhere.
I realized that I was definitely missing contrast,
so I used the same black eyeliner
and I just went around my white lines,
just so they really pop.
Check if you need brown shadow,
just make sure everything is like super contrasted.
Alright, now that the makeup is done, what do you need?
Accessories!
Ta-dam!!
To complete the look, simply use a wig
and craft yourself a crown with stuff you have at home.
Be creative.
