Glam Goth Makeup Experiment
A good friend of mine invited me to go to a Goth convention down in Mass next week! It’s not my usual esthetic, but I love makeup and cosplay, and I enjoy it, it’s just not an everyday me. I’m more like a book gremlin, but they don’t have conventions like that. I can shapeshift, don’t tell the church ! I morphed my hobbit into a steampunk look, I can do this too!
Anyway, I decided to adapt my Lore Olympus wrath Persephone cosplay (I’ll put a pic of that in the comments). I won’t be painting myself pink or wearing a wig and the makeup will be more dramatic. The only thing I’m adding is some black tights. I miss my old black buckle boots but those went away after having kids (my feet got bigger and never reverted back) the last time I did this, I used lip products, which my eyes hated. But I finally found this red stuff finally! (Do you know how hard it was to find red eye makeup outside of Halloween?!)
I think I want to get some false eyelashes… I always have a problem getting them to fit behind my glasses though.
I’m a spooky bitch, or maybe more of a spooky witch.
The glam goth makeup look can be an exciting and transformative experience for any makeup enthusiast. To create a striking aesthetic, consider the use of bold colors like deep reds and dark blacks, focusing on captivating elements such as dramatic winged eyeliner and false eyelashes. Products like Haus Labs are excellent for achieving vibrant hues that stand out and elevate your overall look. When preparing for a themed event, blending various techniques from different styles—like incorporating steampunk elements with goth principles—can lead to a unique and personal interpretation of the style. Remember, the best makeup experiments come from a place of creativity and self-expression, so don’t hesitate to explore and adapt different styles to suit your personality! For those who struggle with finding specific colors, especially in non-Halloween settings, it might be worth exploring niche makeup retailers or online shops that specialize in bold color palettes. Engaging in communities like forums can also offer support and inspiration from fellow makeup lovers who share tips and tricks to achieve similar looks. Whether you're attending a goth convention, a cosplay event, or just want to embrace the gothic aesthetic in daily life, the key is to enjoy the creative process and embrace the spooky vibes that makeup and cosplay provide!
