How To Wear Beautiful Fairy Tips
Let’s face it, this isn’t for everyone but if you love fantasy makeup looks then these tips will get you started on a makeup look that’s sure to mesmerize onlookers. The key here is to use a set of elf ears, also called fairy tips, and then combine it with eyeshadow and eyeliner pens. The steps are simple so dig into your makeup kit and grab your cosmetics.
List of items you will need:
- White Face Paint
- Blue Eyeshadow
- Purple Eyeshadow
- Blue Eyeliner Pen or Pencil
- White Eyeliner Pen or Pencil
- Shimmer Cream and Blush
- Foundation and Primer
- Elf or Fairy Tips
Tip: You can use cosmetics or face paint. A thin layer of face paint works better but you can substitute with opaque cream eyeshadow.
Prepare by applying foundation primer to any area that will receive make up application. The reason is that it makes it a whole lot easier for removing makeup afterward.
Notice: On the photo above the blue and purple colors are very sheer. The blue at the top of the model’s own ear blends into the fairy tip.
How To Apply Elf Ears Makeup
1 Apply foundation or use an airbrush foundation to your face and ears.
2 Coat each ear with foundation by sponging or brushing on or airbrushing.
3 Take white face paint and cover your eyebrow area with a thin layer.
4 Use shimmer cream under the eyes and on top of your cheeks. Add blush.
5 Take the purple eyeshadow and brush it on above the white eyebrows.
6 Brush it down the sides of your nose. It will make the dots stand out.
7 Blue eyeshadow goes on and under eyes. Wing it out like cat eyeliner.
8 Apply the tips and brush the shadow colors on.
9 Take the eyeliner pens and and create a pattern of dots.
10 Apply your favorite shimmer lipgloss or lip balm.
Tip: If you plan on taking a photo then you can use a white eyeliner to do tightlining on your eyes. Otherwise, skip it because it will cake on the inner tear ducts. It really is for photos only.
Make sure to take a photo when you are finished because you might just want to put together a photobook for future reference.
