Suicide Squad Harley Quinn Tutorial
Materials: makeup kit from Spirit Halloween, NYX full throttle 12 lipstick, red and black face paint
Clothing: "Daddy's Little Monster" Harley Quinn shirt, red and blue shorts, Harley Quinn tights with tattoos, "Puddin" choker. All of the clothing I have for this costume I purchased from Spirit Halloween for anyone wondering. *Disclamer* I am not promoting nor am I sponsored by Spirit Halloween. I simply work there so I purchase a lot of costumes and makeup from Spirit. I only name them so anyone who wishes to use the same items know where to find them. Anyway, now onto the tutorial.
Step 1:
Use either a clean makeup brush or your finger (whichever works better) to apply the white face powder from the makeup kit. I don't have a picture for this one because it didn't make too much of a difference.
Step 2:
Paint on her tattoos using black face paint or if you have temporary tattoos those will work too. If you use temporary tattoos apply them before the face powder so they stick better.
Step 3:
Apply the blue and pink eye-shadow from the kit extending it a little past your eye and smudge it down with your finger. I applied it to the outer corner of my eyelid and blended it across my eyelid so it wasn't solid.
Step 4:
Apply either liquid or gel eyeliner with a small wing along the upper lash line. Apply pencil or gel eyeliner along the bottom lash line and smudge a little with your finger or brush. I suggest gel eyeliner because it's much easier to smudge and create that worn in look.
Step 5:
Add black eye-shadow to darken and muddy the pink and blue. I had better success dabbing it on and blending it that way rather than brushing it on.
Step 6:
Apply the cut on your forehead using red and black face paint. See my previous tutorial on cuts and bruises to achieve a more realistic cut.
Step 7:
Apply red lipstick and smear. I used red lipstick that I already had by NYX but you could use the one in the kit. Whichever floats your boat.
Step 8:
Fill in your eyebrows a medium to dark brown color
Step 9:
Add some grey eye-shadow from the kit under your eyes for more of a smudged makeup look. You can also use this to "dirty" up your face as if you just fought a witch to save the world.
