The Joker: Steps to Follow to achieve scary makeup
Paint your face with the white paste
The first, after cleaning our face, is to apply the white paste all over the face except for the scar (the mouth area) and the one around the eyes. Spread well with the brush and help yourself with your fingers to apply the makeup well in the most difficult areas, such as expression lines.
We create the smile in red
Here you have two possibilities, draw the smile with the special wax for costumes or paint it with the color red. If this second option is going to be yours, put a thin black line that goes in the middle of the smile and that contrasts with the red to give more realism.
We paint the eyes well-marked in black
It is time to apply their black color and apply it well around the eye area and dark circles, it is about being scary so spread it as if you were coloring a drawing. Then we blend it downwards so that it blends with the white that we have put on the face, this little trick will help you to be scarier. If you look closely, the Joker’s character has blurred eyes, which gives him a most peculiar expression.
Final touches
- If you want more realism, you can put a little red paint on the nose and in the middle of the forehead as if they were false eyebrows. In the most modern version of this phantasmagorical character, we see that he also has some vertical blue brushstrokes in the middle of his eyes. If you prefer, all you have to do is apply a little makeup in this hue, or mix a bit of the white and black that you already had prepared, it will give you a greyish color with which you can achieve the same effect.
- Once we have everything ready, we remove, if necessary, the excess paint with a cotton ball. We check that everything is well extended and that the colors are in harmony, we let it dry for a few moments and finally, we seal it with a good layer of translucent powder to last intact all night of October 31.
