Halloween Look - Porcelain Doll (Pretty, Broken, and Hollow Eyed)

Hello everybody! It’s me again here.. back with my Halloween Look part II. 

This time, I try to recreate a porcelain doll from pretty one to hollow eyed doll. Porcelain doll sometimes gives me a creep with their big eyes and well their eyes basically. I was inspired by BJD dolls too. BJD stands for Ball Jointed Dolls. The dolls are very beautifully made with human like appearance. I was trying to achieve that kind of look, but of course the plan on my mind and my makeup ability is not synchronized. So, this is the best porcelain doll look that I can make so far. It’s my first time creating it too, so I don’t have any comparison actually hahaha..

Sooo gorgeous!! Pic from here

My hollow eyed look inspired by Lex from Madeyewlook. Check her youtube account, you can find other tutorials from creepy one to cute one such as emoji makeups. She’s awesome!  

Before all that makeup magic

I spent 3 hours for creating this look, a lot longer than the previous vampire makeup. Simply because at first, I don’t know what to do hahaha.. So after finished putting on my base makeup, I was like uhmmmm, what should I do next? I watched doll makeup tutorials but I was really nervous that I’m going to make a mistake and ruin my whole look, so I literally just stopped and stared at my reflections on the mirror. I tried to watch some makeup tutorials again to help me gain my confident back and started to work on the look.

Same as the previous post, I will not give a tutorial on the look because my makeup technique is down beyond par the others and still need a lot of improvement. But, I will give you some important notes that could help you create this look. I did photoshopped my face a little bit which is removing all my moles to achieve the porcelain skin. But the other parts are real makeup, no photoshopped or even beauty camera.

Sssshhh!! Don't tell anyone that I will come to play

 

• Primer before makeup. Porcelain doll has porcelain skin which is smooth and poreless. A pore perfecting primer to cover your pores will be an excellent choice for this look.

• Thin or natural eyebrows. A gentle stroke with your eyebrow pencil to define your eyebrows. A porcelain doll should look delicate not fierce.

• White eyeliner to make your eyes look bigger.

• Take out your fabulous lush falsies to play. This time, we go big. Upper lashes and lower lashes should have falsies to achieve that dolly eyes.

• Go crazy with your circle lens too. The bigger the better.

• Shading and highlighting is always on the game. Contour your nose, philtrum (upper lips area), and chin.

• A rosy lips and cheeks to complement the look

Now, some points for making the creepier porcelain doll look.

• Practice your crack drawing before hand to make sure your cracks look real. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, a cotton bud with makeup remover can always solve the problem. I use liquid eyeliner to create the cracks.

• Cover your lips with foundation and use black eyeshadow to make a dark gradient lips. If its not dark enough, add black eyeliner on your inner lips.

• To create sunken eyes, swipe black eyeshadow around the hollow of your eyes. Don’t forget to blend it well.

• To create hollow eyed, use your black eyeliner all over your eyelid and lower eyes with the guidance of that hollow part of your eyes. Blend it with black eyeshadow to create an illusion that your eyes are hollow.

• Took off your all your falsies when you take picture of the hollow eyed look because errr no eyes means no falsies, rite?

Products that I used:

Benefit The Porefessional Primer

Shu Uemura Lightbulb Foundation shade 764

PAC Creamy Foundation in White

Beauty Story Luminous Primer

Shu Uemura Eyebrow Pencil Hard Formula in Seal Brown

Etude House Color My Brow shade No. 4 Natural Brown

Make Up Forever Artist Plexi Gloss No.201
No brand falsies that I bought in Bangkok
Kawaii Angel Circle Lens in Gray (bought from Kawai Gankyu)
Kimiko Wig in Coffee Brown (bought from Pinokobeauty)

That’s all I guess. I had so much fun creating this look and my sister helped take pictures of me. I supposed it’s not that scary when it’s daytime but I don’t think I will do it on night time hahahaha..

Creepy Dolls can have fun too ;)

Halloween Makeup - Vampire Look

Helloooo again gorgeous!
As you all know, October is Halloween month anddd Halloween is an event where once in a year all the makeup artist go full throttle and all out in squeezing their each drop of creativity to look spooky, scary, or even magnificent. I love browsing through Instagram; using #halloweenmakeup #halloweenmakeupideas #halloweenmakeupinspiration #halloweenmakeuplook and looking at all those amazing makeup.  

This Halloween, I finally collect my courage to do a Halloween makeup look. I never dare to make one before because I thought that I will never be able to do those things (especially the ones with special effects and all). But then I really wanted to do something different on my blog other than just reviewing products, so I took the chance and just do it. 

The look I created is a vampire look. I chose this because it's the infamous Halloween look that has been done by many people in the world, so I could get as many references aka tutorials as I could. I love watching those tutorials because it amazes me how those makeup artists or makeup gurus able to transform their faces into something totally different by just using makeup. You should’ve seen my face reaction when I watched those Halloween tutorials. I was like woowww.. ooohhh… aahhhh.. being awed by their skills painting their faces :D 

One tutorial that particularly inspired me is from Michelle Phan's. It's an old video from 6 years ago where she did a tutorial about a seductive vampire look. Click here for the video link
I will not giving you a Halloween makeup tutorial in this post, but only going to describe what I did when I did my makeup, so it’s more into the basics that you need to remember if you wanted to make similar look. Ok, let’s start now.

• Prep your skin with your usual skincare routine. Make sure that your skin is toned and moisturized before you put any makeup on.

• Vampire skin is pale and smooth. Remember to use a primer (a pore perfecting primer) before you apply foundation to achieve that poreless and smooth vampire look. As for the pale shade, use a foundation that is 2-3 times lighter than your usual shade. I mixed my foundation with a white foundation cream to get a lighter shade. Apply the foundation onto your neck too to avoid looking like you’re wearing a mask.

• Don’t forget to shade and highlight your face. Vampires usually have defined cheekbones, jaws, and nose bridges.

• No blush needed. Have you ever saw Edward Cullen cheeks flushed??

• Black eyeliner is a must. Period.

• No false lashes unless you are trying to be a vampire doll or vampire Barbie.

• Fangs are optional. With or without you will still look pretty *smooch* 

 

Products that I used are the following:

Benefit The Porefessional Primer
Shu Uemura Lightbulb Foundation shade 764
PAC Creamy Foundation in White
Urban Decay Book of Shadows Vol III shade Rockstar and Last Call
Urban Decay Naked On The Run Palette shade Fix (to contour) and Dare (for the eyes)
Stila Chocolate Palette (using the dark brown color for the eyes)
Shu Uemura Eyebrow Pencil Hard Formula 9 in Seal Brown
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner in Zero
Dior Diorshow Waterproof Mascara
IOPE Colorfit Lipstick No.18 Classic Red (I mixed it with the black eyeliner to achieve a darker red on the lips)
Kawaii Angel Circle Lens in Gray

As this is my first attempt on doing a Halloween makeup, so please forgive me if there are a lot of flaws here and there. I should’ve worn a lighter shade of lens to really give a good contrast on the eyes makeup because that’s actually is all about for this look. But I supposed this lens will do too. I did not contour my face bolder and as a result, my face is not defined and chiseled enough. But nevertheless, I had a great time creating this look and having fun with it. 

This vampire look is pretty easy to make and I think is very versatile too. You can tone it down a notch and it can become your going-on-a-party smokey eye kind of look. 

I’m actually preparing another Halloween look for this year and hopefully I can post it on time here on my blog. The clue? It involved a wig and another circle lens. I hope you enjoy reading this post and get inspired to do Halloween makeup too. What is your Halloween makeup this year? Who is your favorite makeup artist or your favorite Halloween makeup look this year? If you did a Halloween makeup, please say Hi to me on my IG and I will check on yours.

Cheers,

Stef
