How to Create a Creepy Demon Costume for Halloween

Today, we’re doing a last-minute demon costume. I’m going to show you how to create this female demon makeup look using things you already have or things that are really easy to come by. Let’s get started!
Tools and materials:
- Foundation
- Concealer
- Eyeshadow
- Eyeshadow primer
- Highlighter
- Liquid eyeliner
- Eyeliner pencil
- False lashes
- Hair spray paint
- White contacts
- Nail polish
1. Apply foundation and concealer
Cover your face with foundation and some concealer to create a flawless base.
2. Fill in your brows
When everything is blended in, fill in your eyebrows and make them quite thick and angular since we’re going for a glam look all around the eyes so don’t be afraid to make them really sharp and prominent.
3. Apply eyeshadow primer
Apply a little bit of eyeshadow primer on and underneath your eyelids.
4. Apply highlighter
Apply highlighter right underneath your eyebrow, using a color slightly lighter than your skin tone.
5. Apply white eyeshadow
Apply a white cream eyeshadow all over the moving parts of your eyelid. Use a white eyeshadow powder afterward to set it and make it an even brighter white color.
6. Cut your crease
Make a cut crease using black eyeshadow and an angled eyeliner brush.
Blend the back upwards to create a smoky look. After, use a clean, fluffy eyeshadow brush to just blend everything out.
7. Apply black eyeshadow
Apply a lot of black eyeshadow to the bottom of your eyelid and blend it out. Connect the eyeshadow to the top cut crease to create a triangular shape on the outside.
Don’t be afraid to make this demon eye makeup quite prominent.
8. Apply shimmery white eyeshadow
Apply shimmery white eyeshadow to the inner corner of your eyes and underneath your eyebrows.
9. Apply liquid eyeliner
Using liquid eyeliner, draw a line along your lash line and connect it to the other triangle. This is to prepare for the false eyelashes that are going on later.
10. Outline the mouth
The real feature of this demon Halloween makeup is the demonic mouth, so let’s move on to that. Start by outlining the basic shape of where you want the mouth to go in.
11. Draw the mouth shapes
Go in with black eyeshadow on an angled brush and draw random, swirly shapes on the mouth, making sure to make it a little bit wider towards the center where the lips are to make it look like a smiling mouth.
You can dip the brush into the water now and then to make the eye shadow sharp.
12. Apply false lashes
Apply large, false eyelashes that are really glam to the top lash line.
13. Line your waterline
Use a black eyeliner pencil to line your waterline and deepen the look so it’s more intense.
14. Apply cream paint to your eyelashes
Touch the tips of your eyelashes with cream paint to create a gradient effect.
15. Paint your hair
Let’s add the finishing touches to the demon Halloween costume. Use white hair spray paint to color two strands of your hair at the front and then put your hair up into two high ponytails. This enhances the mad look.
16. Apply white contacts
Pop in some white contacts.
17. Paint your nails
For the finishing touch, you can also do your nails and hands kind of demonically. Start by painting your nails black. You can be sloppy with it since you’re going for a scary look anyway.
18. Apply black eyeshadow to your hands
Take a black eyeshadow and create a gradient going down your hand from your fingers.
