If You're Dressing Like a Greek Goddess For Halloween, You Need This Makeup Tutorial

I've always been huge fan of Halloween and have a blast putting together costume ideas - the more unique, the better! Although, I have done the whole "toga" look while in college, I thought I'd revisit the look in full costume form and leave the twisted bed sheet out. To achieve this makeup look, you'll need a few key products:

  • Gold or bronze eye shadow (with high pigment)
  • Liquid eyeliner
  • Neutral lip shade
  • Bronzer
  • Highlighter

Face:

Start with clean washed skin. Prep, prime, and thoroughly conceal with your foundation of choice. Lately, I've been loving Dior's Diorskin Star Studio Foundation; it goes on incredibly smooth, and the coverage is fantastic!

Eyes:

This look is just as much about the eyes as it is the hair. Start by priming the eyes with a neutral primer. I used Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin (any neutral with do!). Next, I added my base color to the lid, since this is going over the entire eye, opt for a matte shade in a golden hue, I used MAC's Butterscotch eye shadow, which is unfortunately no longer available. Bobbi Brown's Banana is a good alternative.

Your next shade will create definition and accentuate the wing of the eye. Choose a satin medium dark brown with golden undertones. I used Espresso from MAC. Using a tapered eye shadow brush, really buff the color into the outer crease, working your way in toward the center of the lid.

To add lightness and shimmer to the center of the eye, use a shimmer/glitter golden eye shadow. I used Trick from the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette. Using a stiff shadow brush, apply color to the center of the lid, working your way toward the inner corner. Using a smudge brush, apply under the lower lashes, and line.

Once both eyes are complete, use a liquid liner to apply a cat eye. You can also apply a pencil liner to the waterline to add more drama to the look.

Curl lashes, and add one or two coats of black mascara.

Cheeks:

Using a angled bronzer brush, apply a matte bronzer along the cheek bones and around the perimeter of the face and bend. Once skin has been contoured, use a highlighter or illuminator along the top of the cheekbones, ridge of nose, and Cupid's bow. I used Nars "The Multiple" Stick in South Beach.
