    How to do witch makeup (green that does not go patchy)

    Witch makeup kit from BODYFX with green stick, blender, translucent powder, treat palette, black magic eyeliner, vamp lippy, shader brush, lashes and black glitter

    Green witch makeup fails in one specific way: it goes patchy. Blotchy green is the difference between a witch and someone who has been unwell. The fix is the product, not the technique.

    1. Use a stick, not a liquid

    A cream stick gives you an opaque, even green in one pass. Thin liquid greens streak over the nose and around the nostrils, which is exactly where people look. Press it in with a blender sponge rather than rubbing.

    Take it past the jaw and onto the neck and ears. A green face on a pink neck is the single most common mistake.

    2. Powder immediately

    Translucent powder while the cream is still fresh. Unset cream green transfers onto a costume collar, onto a broomstick, onto everything.

    3. Build the bones

    Witches are gaunt. Deeper green or a plum tone from the treat palette, pushed into the cheek hollow, the temple and down the sides of the nose, blended up. You are carving a face, not colouring it.

    4. Eyes and lip

    Dark shadow into the socket and dragged outwards and up towards the temple. The Black Magic Eyeliner doubles as lash glue and glitter glue, so the same product does the liner, sticks the lashes and holds the black glitter on the lid. Finish with the dark lip.

    Questions

    Why does my green face paint go patchy?

    Almost always because it is a thin liquid or watered-down water-based green. A cream stick pressed in with a sponge covers evenly in one pass and does not streak around the nose.

    Do I need to paint my neck and ears?

    Yes. A green face above unpainted skin is the thing that gives it away in photos. Take the colour past the jawline and cover the ears.

    Will green stain my skin?

    Green and blue pigments can leave a faint tint on dry or freshly shaved skin for an hour or two. Moisturise beforehand and remove with a cleansing balm rather than scrubbing.

    Can I reuse the lashes?

    Yes, several times, if you peel the old glue off the band gently and store them back in the tray rather than loose.

    Can I get it before Halloween?

    Order before 2pm on a business day and it ships the same day. Auckland is usually next business day, the rest of New Zealand 2 to 4 working days. Free shipping over $80.
