as someone who often does clown makeup i've found for white face makeup its best to use a dense brush and not a sponge since the sponge just makes everything really patchy. plus the white cream paints from kryolan, mehron or ben nye work wonders. hope this helps and i loved your eye makeup!
yeah unfortunately spirit halloween leaves a lot to be desired with white bases :( I recommend the LA Girl Pro Coverage foundation is a LIFESAVER! I use it with the Nyx powder that you used and I swear by it (the LA Girl foundation is also widely recommended). RECS: - glueing your eyebrows down call help do the eyebrow part - A fundamental of trad goth makeup is a DRAMATIC inner corner, so definitely don't be afraid to have blank space between the lines on the inner corners - Doing cheekbone contour is a goth saver (eye shadow works just fine, I literally put a flat thing or tape on my face so that one side of the contour is a SHARP line) - For trad goth makeup I highly recommend drawing a line down from the inner part of your eyebrows down onto your nose a bit - For eyelids I recommend going with matte black on the whole eyelid. I typically use eyeliner and then add eyeshadow on top to make it more matte and so I can blend it out These are all just my tips, and obviously pick and choose because a lot of it can come down to personal style, these are just my recs and tips for trad goth makeup!
I used the Sunset makeup for a white foundation and when i tell you it’s amazing! it’s so light feeling and so pigmented i usually only have to do one coat. I even used some cheap dollar store setting powder and it like didn’t come off or get rubbed off!
i used that spirit halloween white cream makeup one time and it BURNED when it was wet on my face and when it dried and started cracking off like a face mask 😂
I'm not from the states but I heard sunset makeup has a good white foundation, they recommend to remove it with oil based makeup remover or smth like that, I've also seen people use kryolan and mehron white face paint. I think those are for theater and clowns ? idk I've seen clowns recommend mehron so idk. That's what I know, although having a white face isn't like super necessary for trad goth looks (I don't do my makeup in a trad goth way btw I just like the music and the subculture lol)
la girl mixing foundation is what i use, also black cheek contour really boosts the goth look, a better foundation and base will fs allow blending on top of
I did my first goth look today and I totes felt u on like everything in thissssss my white foundation didn't spread evenly and was a lil cakey 2 :((( it was fun to try tho! we will get the goth look down eventually 🤞🤞
ben nye, mehron, snazaroo, and kyrolan are some brands that have been around awhile i know have been used and recommended by homestuck and steven universe cosplayers, and i can personally recommend snazaroo for face paint. it is water activated tho so i did have some trouble with it when i did a skull makeup look but its a lot more buildable
My grandmother got me white make up which was really white paint. She raised a goth and a punk so she’s supportive in such things. However it bled into my eyes and n covered them. Horrific times.
LA girl’s pro coverage white foundation and I’ve heard good things of Kryolan’s tv paint stick in white. Ben Nye’s or Airspun translucent powder to set it
i feel like if it didnt fuck with your lipstick, it could've given like an aged statue, ancient gothic painting look. almost like you're a brittle specter come to life slowly chipping away. ghoul core fr fr. but anyways spirit halloween wrong asl for this, they really wrote trad goth and made flashback merry instead. false advertising is the biggest sin of them all. they're all going straight to corporate hell ong.
I know Long Legs was terrible lol but have ya'll seen The Black Phone? It's not a particularly 'scary' horror film, but it's pretty dang good, I was pleasantly surprised
as a goth, you dont need white foundation really to be trad goth!! but for white foundation go for LA girls pro coverage
SUNSET MAKEUP!!! and they support palestine!!
still can’t get over how much the baby bangs & black hair combo EATSSSSSS

I hear great things about Sunset Makeup for colored foundations. Maybe you could try that for your next attempt
i REALLY like the sunset makeup white foundation! it's inexpensive and it lasted me a night of moshing 💪💪
i love the skill you're showing here! it's the products that are failing you. you got this!

This is honestly not bad at all, Spirit Halloween bases just SUCK (LA Girl Pro Coverage cannot recommend enough!!!)

i do clown makeup kinda often & i really like my mehron clown white makeup. it just needs to be set.
use elf no budge cream eyeshadow in white! its cheap and worls super well
you resemble samarie from fear and hunger termina in that makeup omg soooo good
la girl mixing foundation is what i use, also black cheek contour really boosts the goth look, a better foundation and base will fs allow blending on top of
the LA girl pro coverage is a good shout, stargazer also do white foundation which i like but it can look a bit cakey when u layer it
i love LA Girl Pro Coverage for my base!!

I think you need to get real makeup for this not anything from Spirt Halloween 😆 Black Moon cosmetics, NYX, LA Girl, Sunset….
try the white kryolan tv paint stick! i dont do goth makeup but i know thats like the goth/theater makeup staple
That paint would be perfect for a Peabody and Sherman cosplay 😣
SHE HAS PAWS!!!

I've been summoned
I have olive toned skin so I usually skip white foundation and just go over my base lightly with a white powder
I’ve had good results with the la girl pro coverage concealer, it also really affordable
My grandmother got me white make up which was really white paint. She raised a goth and a punk so she’s supportive in such things. However it bled into my eyes and n covered them. Horrific times.
My friend got a blue foundation from Sunset and it looked awesome, might wanna check them out
use LA Girl pro coverage foundation!!!
SUNSET MAKEUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~!!!~!~
LA girl’s pro coverage white foundation and I’ve heard good things of Kryolan’s tv paint stick in white. Ben Nye’s or Airspun translucent powder to set it

NOT ONCE! NOT TWICE! 🎵
ily!
i'm sorry i skipped through the video to see the progress and it went from no makeup to a full face of white makeup and it just cracked me up
it's not all that bad, though I don't think I would have it in me to paint my whole face, so kudos for that ^w^
haus labs white is great but comes in a small tube
