                                           AND THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE :)

 

My second sugar skull is something I came up with it is kind of like an Sparkle Skull.
 The interesting thing about this skull is that it was completely made out of eye shadow expect for
the white face paint around the chin and mouth and the bling of course! And it transitions between 3 colors.

What you will need
2 glitter shades of eye shadow
2  normal shades of eye shadows the same colors as your two glitter shades
Black eye shadow pigment
1 normal eye shadow of any color of your choosing
white face paint
Dusting powder
Some bling !
2 brushes of your choice

Lets begin!!!!
Step 1 Begin putting the white face paint from under your chin all the way up to the tip of your nose. Blend it out as much as you can.

Step 2 Take one of your glitter shades and  one of your solid shade and being to dip your brush in one then the other  I used blue tones for this !

Step 3 Begin to blend this right  where you stopped your white  face paint Blend about a 1/2 inch into the white. This will make a natural transition and not a harsh one.

Step 4 Continue to blend these to colors until you hit the top of your cheeks .

Tip * The whole section where your blending these colors should turn that color and it should be very noticeable so keep going if it is not quite there

Step 5 Repeat Step 2 with your second set of colors ! I used purple tones for this !

Step 6  Repeat Step 3 only this time your will be blending the color at your temples to make the transition to your next color!

Hint *  leave your eye socket and eyebrow areas open we will fill them in later !

Step 7 Blend these colors all the way up to your hair line avoiding your eye and eyebrow areas

Step 8  Take your two set of colors and begin blending them all the way down your nose until you get a color your happy with.

Step 9 Fill in the tip of your nose with black  eye shadow pigment.

Step 10  Use an eyeliner stick in any color. If you have black it could make the next couple steps easier. Make a big circle around your eyes starting at your eyebrow and ending underneath your eyes .

Step 11 Fill in this circle with any color you want. You can mix colors if you want. I did a deep but bright pink. Then dusted a sparkly sliver over it. !

Tip ****This is wear having a black eyeliner stick would make your life much easier so you can do these following steps with that if you would like !!!!!

Step 12 Begin to outline your circle with your black eye shadow pigment you can do this very easily with a Qtip. Then being to make tiny lines coming off  the circle you have just outlined. Using a Qtip to do this will make your lines thinker thus giving it a cooler appearance.

Step 13 Fill your lips in with black. Then begin to make a line form the corner of your lips to the middle of your checks with your black eye shadow pigment. Make a bunch of evenly spaced lines going through the line you just made. This is you mouth!

Step 14 Add bling wherever you want!

Step 15 If you have it dust your whole face with dusting powder. If you don't know what dusting powder is. It is a fine powder made completely of sparkles !!

                                             HERE IS THE FINISHED PRODUCT !!!
