Halloween doesn’t have to be about gory and scary stuff. If you want a more elegant and sophisticated vibe, then you’ll love this masquerade mask makeup idea! In this lace mask makeup tutorial, I’ll show you how to transform your face into a beautiful lace mask, perfect for a masquerade ball!
Tools and materials:
- Cream brown eyeshadow
- Brown matte eyeshadow
- Various sized brushes
- Black eye pencil
- Black eyeshadow
- Liquid eyeliner with a fine tip
- Bronzer
- Red lipstick
- Foundation
- Concealer
- False lashes
1. Apply foundation
Before we hop into the fun part of creating lace eye mask makeup, it’s always good to start with a clean canvas. So go ahead and put foundation and concealer on your face.
2. Apply eye makeup
Start by applying eyeshadow on your mobile eyelids, from the lashline to where your eyes naturally crease. I’m using a warm brown with a metallic finish. The eyeshadow is cream-based. But you can use anything you have on hand.
Now, blend the eyeshadow through the crease so it blends upwards.
Go in with a second layer to build the pigment.
Take a brown matte eyeshadow, and with a fluffy crease brush, work it into the socket of the eye.
Now, add some eyeshadow underneath the lower lashline.
Line the waterline of the eyes.
Add some matte black right on the upper lashline, and apply it around the mobile eyelid.
3. Create the masquerade mask outline
With a soft but sharp black eye pencil, start creating the shape of your Halloween masquerade ball makeup mask.
Work your way around your face. Sure, this is an intricate part of the process, so it can take a lot of time to trace. If you make a mistake, it’s no big deal. You can easily erase the pencil and start again.
Now that you have the basic shape go in with your eyeliner. I’m using eyeliner with a very fine tip.
Go over the pencil lines, as shown.
Add the details within the parameters of the mask. Be sure to work from the top of the mask and then all the way down. If you start at the bottom, your hand may rub off on the makeup and cause it to blotch.
First, add different types of lines to the top curves. Also, add some dots for extra dimension.
4. Fill in the lace mask
Then, add diagonal cross-over lines around the center of the mask.
Now, trace the bottom and work your magic on the bottom half of the lace eye mask makeup.
Allow your brush to do its own thing- let it follow the natural curves of your face. The point is to make it look natural.
5. Add shadow
If you feel like your eyes need to be darker, go ahead and apply more eyeshadow.
Once your lace mask makeup has dried, gently add some contour color to the sides of your nose; this will add a little shading and give your mask some depth.
6. Finish off the makeup
Next, apply some lovely false lashes.
Add some vibrant bronzer to the cheeks’ hollows, which will create a bit more structure to your cheekbones.
Top off the look with a deep red lipstick!
