Hello.I'm Misako Aoki.
Today I want to show you how to do Gothic Lolita makeup and hair.
Are you ready? Here we go.
At first, let's do base makeup.
For a Gothic Lolita look, to make a pale skin.
We're going to start out with the concealer.
Choose the lightest shade of concealer and apply it to your entire face.
You might think it is a little bit too bright.
But for a Gothic Lolita look, this will be just perfect,
just lighten your skin.
To highlight your cheeks where you receive the strongest light.
Put concealer around your cheekbones.
Next is this highlighter.
Also for pale skin.
Apply highlighter on the cheek bones.
Normally, we use highlighter to highlight our eyes or T-zones.
But here, we are using highlighter to make our skin pale.
Apply all over your face.
After that, the foundation.
Using a foundation that is slightly lighter.
Apply it all over your face.
We want a doll's face look.
Slather on foundation to make it look pale.
To cover up dark circles under your eyes. Apply a little heavier foundation underneath your eyes.
And the last step of base makeup, we'll use a highlighter with glitter.
There are several colors here, but this time we will choose white.
A little will be just enough this will help you to look brighter and make your face shape clear.
Also it keeps your make-up stay longer.
That is all for base make-up.
Now, it's time to apply eye makeup.
Take a brown shadow and apply it to the outer corners of the eyes.
This brown color.
Make sure you get a good coverage of your double eyelids
Put it just behind your upper lashes gently stretch the lid by using this color.
To accentuate your eyes and make your eyes look bigger by doing this.
Since it's much easier to defeat liquid eyeliner mistakes, we will use the black thin liquid eyeliner.
Create a clear eye line from the inner corners of your eyes to the outer corners.
As we want a heavy makeup.
We draw an upward eye line this time.
Just like this and blend out with your fingertips.
Make sure your eye line won't be that thin,
the width of the eye line between 2mm to 3mm would be nice.
If you want your eyes to look even more bigger.
line the inside of your eyes carefully and tightly.
If you want a droopy eye look,
line your upper lash line downward; it will be cute too.
You can choose the type of eye makeup to match your outfit.
Now apply grey eye shadow around your eyes and blend outward.
This eye shadow has gotten glitter in it.
Apply it all over the eyelids.
And also underneath the eyes.
Apply the same brown eye shadow again.
Blend into the crease apply it thickly over the eyelids once again.
And then use the liquid eyeliner again.
This time, use the brown to draw a shadow underneath.
Another key to Gothic Lolita makeup is.
Make the eyes darker with dramatic eyes,
Start from the inner corner, connect the eyeliner line your inner water line, trace the inner rim on your lower and upper lash lines.
Go for an exaggerated cat eye.
Do the same way as the other side ,follow the bottom lash line.
If you want to make it even more dramatic and Gothic here, you can line your upper lash line more heavily, and make it more thicker.
If the look is a little too much for you,a brown liquid eyeliner would also be a nice choice.
If the color of your hair is brown, a brown eyeliner will also give you a lovely look.
Blur those lines with your fingertips.
With the completion of your eyeliner,use the brown eye shadow for a smoky eye effect.
Brown eye shadow.Get that color going and just go start sweeping it up.
Brown is much easier to blend with, that's why I chose brown this time.
Now it's time for false eyelashes.
I'm going to use these lashes, longer wispy bundles with an even edge, giving it a retro, wide-eyed cutie look.
I will apply it without cutting this time.
They usually fall off from the inner or outer corners, so apply glue directly onto the lashes and each corners.
Using a damp Q-tip you can push them into place to make them stay longer.
Use liquid eyeliner to blend in the lines.
