Halloween is one of the holidays that came to us from Europe. Today, almost everywhere it is celebrated with themed parties in bars, clubs and cafes. Even shops sometimes change their design to gloomy and creepy. To celebrate with customers, employees dress up as witches, mummies, vampires, etc. But all these characters have long become boring, and today a new look is in fashion, which is not difficult to decorate even at home, because the clown makeup is very simple!
Most popular clowns
You must have been to the circus as a child and remember those strange people in uncomfortable bright costumes, with wigs on their heads and a huge red nose. Perhaps someone will be surprised, but most children do not see anything funny in clowns, rather, on the contrary, they scare. Let's get acquainted with the five scariest characters that have conquered the whole world. You can use this clown makeup for Halloween or just to amuse your friends.
- Captain Spaulding is a creepy clown, probably familiar to you from the mystical film House of 1000 Corpses. As the owner of a horror store, Spalding told various legends about maniac murderers to hiscustomers and lured them to certain death.
- Gene the Clown is a very original character from the movie When Evil Tempts. It just comes out of your closet and makes dreams come true. But, as they say, be careful with your desires, because they can come true! No one knows what horror an innocent request can turn into. Nobody but him.
- Edwin (movie "Massacre at the Clown Camp") - a completely ordinary guy who wanted to become a clown and make kids laugh. But, alas, the study did not work out, the exams failed, and classmates simply laughed at him. Resentment and anger drove Edwin crazy and pushed him to massacre in the camp. He killed everyone and drowned the remains in the lake, after which he disappeared for 15 years. When the camp was reopened after this incident, Edwin also returned…
- The Joker is a well-known opponent of Batman from the film series. It is his Halloween clown makeup that is used most often. A strange, mysterious, slightly deranged character that no one knows the truth about. What made him like this?
- IT or Pennywise is a creepy clown from the American horror film of the same name, the culprit of strange events, bloody murders and the disappearance of children in the town of Derry. He returns every 30 years to drive the world crazy again.
What do you need to make a clown makeup
For a full-fledged image, you always need a suit and a little imagination. Well, making an evil clown makeup on your own is not at all difficult. It is enough to choose the character you want to be like, and transfer his image to yourself. So what do you needto do the clown makeup:
- A photo or picture of good quality, which fully shows all the nuances of the make-up.
- Correct makeup, powder, etc. for your look
- Paint tools.
- Combs, hair fixatives.
Apply white makeup to clean skin. It will serve as a base. Apply the base lines according to the photo (outline, thin, barely visible). If everything worked out, you can do the direct filling of the lines. The main thing is not to rush, otherwise your clown makeup will have to be redone. And this is a waste of time, effort and a spoiled mood.
How to make up
Professional paints are not always found in the city, but do you still want to impress everyone with unusual makeup? No problem! You can make the same bold theatrical makeup yourself. And all you need for this is children's paints (not gouache!) And real pork fat, you can melt it yourself from lard or buy it in cooking. Mix both components well in a transparent container so that you can see how uniform the paint is. Let the resulting mass stand a little, and your theatrical makeup is ready. Another quick option: replace the lard with plain vaseline or lamp oil. The rest of the algorithm is similar.
Tips
- Apply makeup, gradually building up layers.
- Remove it with special products, not soap.
- On the skin after makeupyou need to apply a good cream.
- Don't use expired products or bad brushes.
- The easiest way to blend transitions in makeup is with your fingers.
- Don't forget to lightly powder your face so that the makeup lasts longer and doesn't run.
Well, now, fully armed, choose which image you like! Maybe a kind clown will come in handy even at such a party?
