Vampire Makeup How-to Guide & Video

Want to be a vampiress this Halloween? This gallery shows how easy it is to use special-effects costume makeup to take your vampire costume to a fang-tastic level! Note: some makeup products may cause an adverse reaction in people who have latex allergies.

Vampires are always pale since they avoid the sunlight. Start by using a Stipple Sponge or Makeup Sponge to apply a thin layer of white makeup from the Classic Vampire Makeup Kit over your entire face, neck and ears.

Follow up with gray makeup in the hollows of your cheeks, under your chin and along your neck to add contour.

Now draw on dramatic arched eyebrows with a Black Makeup Stick.

Making your eyes look sultry is key for a striking vampire look. Mix the red and black eye shadow from the Black, White and Red Eye Makeup Kit to make a deep red color, then apply it to your eyelids and under your eyes.

Outline your eyes with a Black Makeup Stick. Use the applicator from the Black, White and Red Eye Makeup Kit to extend the black eyeliner on your top lid out past the edge of your eye.

Line the edges of your lips with black lipstick, then fill the center with bright red.

Make your eyes extra-alluring by adding false eyelashes. Apply eyelash glue to the bottom of the false eyelash line, blow on it to make it sticky, then gently press the lashes onto your top lashes.

Now add some gleaming fangs like the Sexy Bites Fangs or the longer Theatrical Vampire Fangs so you look like a real vampire. Squeeze some adhesive into the openings on the fangs then press the fangs onto your eye teeth. Next add a trail of blood down your chin, like a vampire who’s just fed.

Finish your vampiress look with jet black locks like the Deadly Beauty Wig; just style the bangs as you like. Hang the Deluxe Vampire Necklace around your neck and you’re ready to run the town.
