Halloween coloring page for boys

If you've been invited to a Halloween party, it's time to think about your look. If you have already decided on a character, then you need to choose the appropriate costume, accessories and paraphernalia, and also take care of the hairstyle. But in order for the image to be complete and realistic, special attention should be paid to makeup or make-up. If you have no idea how to paint your face for Halloween, then a few valuable tips and ideas will help you make your choice.

Preparing the face

Makeup for a man, woman or child should always be applied only to a previously prepared face. Otherwise, you risk damaging your skin or even getting chemical burns. It is necessary to thoroughly degrease the upper layers of the skin; to do this, wash with regular soap, and then use any toner containing alcohol. Then apply a thin layer of cream or makeup base, this will protect your face from the harmful and drying effects of cosmetics.

Makeup options for women

How to paint a woman's or girl's face for Halloween? Everything will depend on the image and complexity of the costume; we will consider the most popular options.

Gothic makeup

Classic gothic style makeup is suitable for the image of a witch, demoness, mistress of shadows or black widow. This Halloween face painting doesn't take much time and doesn't require any special skills.

1. To begin with, the skin must be whitened using light powder, theatrical makeup or white shadows. You can use watercolors or gouache, but then the result will not be as realistic. You can make whitewash yourself; to do this, you need to mix a rich cream with white clay or loose dye and apply it to the skin with a wide brush.

Skeleton image

It is very difficult to make such an unusual face makeup for Halloween, but the result is worth the effort and time spent.

1. First you need to draw the contours of the main bones of the skull. The places where the bones are supposed to be located are painted over with white, the voids are highlighted in black. The main elements of drawing are the eyes, nose, cheekbones and jaw. If your costume does not cover the neck and décolleté, you need to draw the cervical spine and upper chest.
2. Start painting with the “voids”; for this use black and dark gray shadows. The intensity of the shade should decrease from the center to the edges.
3. Paint the rest of the face white. Cover your lips completely. Using silver and light gray shadows, highlight the cheekbones and temporal lobes.
4. The finishing touches. The lines of teeth and protruding bones need to be made very sharp and clear, for this you will use liquid eyeliner or a pencil.

Artistic images

It is not at all necessary to make a scary and frightening face with makeup for Halloween: the photos presented below are a clear confirmation of this. Your image can be mysterious, fatal and even romantic. With the help of theatrical makeup, you can turn your face into a real work of art.

When applying makeup, it is worth remembering that it must be in the same color scheme as the costume. Too rich a palette of colors can spoil the image and turn it into a carnival one.

Makeup options for men

If everything is clear with the fair sex, then how can the male half of the population paint their faces for Halloween? The stronger sex is much luckier in this regard, because their image can be truly terrifying, while girls still want to preserve a little femininity and beauty.

the walking Dead

Perhaps the most popular characters among guys are skeletons and zombies. However, the variations are very different; it could be a stylish skeleton guy or a real Horseman of Death. But the general essence of the makeup does not change, usually it is a white face and dark accents on some parts of the skull.

If you want to emphasize individuality and stand out from the gray mass, then for the makeup idea you can use the image of a character from your favorite movie or comic book. Particularly popular are heroes such as Edward Scissorhands or the Mad Hatter. Fans of the Batman films can use Joker or Harley-Joker makeup. But fans of Marvel comics are the luckiest, as they have hundreds of thousands of characters to choose from, from the Hulk to Spider-Man.

Don't forget about the youngest family members. Although children prefer to wear scary masks on their faces, you can choose a look for Halloween that doesn't require them at all. Therefore, interesting makeup will help complement the costume.

Makeup for girls

How to paint a girl's face for Halloween? This primarily depends on her age and costume. For a baby, for example, the image of Pumpkin will be very suitable.

1. Take paint or theatrical makeup and draw the outline of a pumpkin on the child's face. It should cover the eyebrows, cheeks and top of the chin. Using different shades, create a smooth gradient from light yellow to bright orange. The color intensity intensifies from the center to the edges.
2. Using brown paint, draw longitudinal curved lines. They will imitate pumpkin sectors.
3. Using black eyeliner or gouache, apply triangular eyes and a carved mouth for the future holiday pumpkin.
4. Complete the makeup with the stem and green leaves.

An older girl can dress up as a witch; for this she will need bright and beautiful makeup. Use different sparkles and rich colors. And to give the image a holiday spirit, draw a cobweb, bat wings or an imp’s tail. Well, if your daughter is not afraid to be funny, she will like the image of a real witch with a creepy green face.

Boys can choose many options for holiday makeup. Various animal characters are very popular. For example, a puppy, kitten or tiger cub. They are very easy to draw and look quite cute. For a more specific look, it is worth choosing individual makeup. If your son decided to be Count Dracula, then you should apply vampire makeup; if he chose a superhero costume, then the symbolism of Batman or Spider-Man will come in handy. And for the living dead, zombie or skeleton there are detailed photo instructions.

After the holiday, you need to properly remove makeup from your face. For this, it is better to use special milk, but if you don’t have it, you can get by with water and soap. To do this, wet your face with warm water and apply a little liquid soap to a cotton pad or sponge. Wait until the paint becomes soft and fluid, and remove it layer by layer with gentle movements. Do not rub your skin or smear makeup all over your face; harmful substances may get into your eyes. After washing, wipe your skin with an alcohol-containing toner and moisturize with a rich cream.

Catwoman

The black cat costume is the most popular for Halloween, because this look is very feminine and seductive. All you need to do is put on high heels, get a festive manicure, add flirty ears and a long ponytail. And you can even do your makeup in five minutes: use a black pencil or liquid eyeliner to draw large arrows, emphasize a neat nose and don’t forget about a long mustache.

1. Clue: using the same scheme, you can draw the makeup of a cunning fox or Bambi the deer.

Mad Witch

October 31 is the only day of the year when makeup should not decorate us, but make us as scary as possible. Take this chance and turn into a crazy witch: outline your eyes boldly with a black pencil, and then draw a terrifying web all over your face. It couldn’t be simpler - the lines don’t have to be straight.

1. Clue: don’t forget to draw or glue a figurine of a fat spider that has thrown its predatory web over your face.

Black Swan

Intellectual girls will choose the sinister makeup of the ballerina from the movie “Black Swan”. It’s very simple to repeat: using eyeliner or a black pencil, draw a mask in the shape of open wings on your face.

1. Clue: For added drama, add shimmery silver eyeshadow and finish with your favorite lipstick.

Glamorous skeleton

How to get ready for a party at the last minute? Wear a black skinny dress or leggings with a blouse, add fingerless gloves and a leather biker jacket. You can apply makeup right in the taxi: whiten your face as much as possible with the lightest foundation and powder. Then, using a black pencil and liquid eyeliner, draw a skull on the face: darken the eye sockets, “deepen” the nose and shade the toothy jaw.

1. Clue: wear hypersexual things and don’t be afraid to provoke others.

Pin-up beauty

For those who see the world in color rather than black and white, this simple but very effective makeup in the style of pin-up comics is suitable. The main tool will again be black eyeliner: use it to draw thin curved eyebrows, huge doll-like eyes with eyelashes, outline the lips and emphasize the back of the nose. Now use a white pencil to fill in the entire lower eyelid, making your eyes look as big as possible, apply red lipstick to your lips and a little to your cheeks - instead of blush.

1. Clue: any wig will enhance the cartoon effect.

Best Face Painting Ideas for Guys

As a rule, men at this holiday usually wear costumes of negative heroes. The most popular types of Halloween makeup among guys are:

Let's first look at simple options for beginners. If you are new to drawing, but still want to create a drawing on your face with your own hands, then the following options will suit you:

1. Joker. This makeup is performed in stages, first you should make your face white. You can buy white paint in the store, or you can make it yourself from starch and baby cream in a ratio of 3 to 1. Paint the entire face completely white, then outline the area around the eyes with a black pencil and paint it with shadows of the same color. Take red paint or lipstick and draw the famous joker smile. You can complete the look by coloring your hair green with hair chalk.

1. Another simple image that you won’t have to mess around with for a long time is a vampire. All you have to do is shade brown or dark gray shadows around the eyes and draw the flowing blood using lipstick or dye. To make your face pale, you can use white paint or powder a couple of shades lighter than your skin.

1. Like this scary skull Almost anyone can do it, just have the necessary paints, cosmetics and a little patience in your arsenal.

1. white makeup;
2. black pencil;
3. black eye shadow

We paint the entire face white, outline the area around the eyes approximately 1 cm with a pencil and paint over it with black shadows or the same pencil. Half of the nose should also be painted black. Now we proceed to the lips, first we draw a straight line, then we make markings for each tooth and gradually draw the teeth. The gaps from the ears to the mouth are highlighted in black.

Now let's move on to more cool and original types of drawings on the face:

1. Lock. If you do everything right, you will definitely take first place in the costume competition.

1. Foundation;
2. 30 g gelatin;
3. lightning;
4. scissors;
5. stirring stick and dilution container;
6. 4 different brushes;
7. powder;
8. napkins;
9. paint (black and red).

Pour gelatin into a mug and pour boiling water over it. Stir and add foundation, let the liquid cool. We tear the napkins into pieces and put them aside.

We put on a hat and fasten a towel to our chest so as not to stain our clothes. Take the zipper and cut the fabric on the sides on top. Dip the brush into gelatin and apply it to the bridge of the nose. Apply the zipper and wait until it sticks (about 5 minutes).

Now we apply gelatin along the entire perimeter where the zipper will go and glue it. We smear gelatin on the zippered fabric in the cheek area, glue napkins to it and spread the gelatin mixture on top of them. Take foundation and cover your entire face.

Break the powder into powder and apply a thick layer over the foundation. Now moisten a cotton pad with alcohol and remove the excess from under the zipper. Apply red and black paint to the desired area, carefully shade it and wait until it dries.

1. As they say, scars decorate a man. I bring to your attention various scar ideas that will be a great addition to a scary costume. It’s a little difficult to draw them yourself, but you can try.

1. Wounds, abrasions, burns and cuts – this is the best thing you can come up with as a face painting for All Saints’ Day. You can draw anything from small cuts in the skin to large wounds, without skin, where muscles and blood are visible. Usually they paint all this beauty with paints; if you want quality work done, contact a professional, because... It’s quite difficult to do this yourself without experience and prior preparation.
