How do to make-up like Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd?

Question

I watched the movie Sweeney Todd and I fell in love with,

I'm having a birthday party where you come as something dead.

I'm going as a dead ballerina and I am needing the make-up which Mrs Lovett wears in the early stages of Sweeney Todd.

It would be great if you included step by step instructions?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Hi there! I've tried to improvise her face when I didn't have much make up, so here's what I did.

You'll need some Baby Powder(Yup! =3)

And black eyeliner/makeup. (The only thing I had)

Spread your BP on your face+neck. Avoid the area around the eyes. That's where the eyeliner/makeup will go.

As said above- put the eyeliner messily and freely around your eyes.

As for hair- if you have black hair- Great!!! Sleep with your hair- use hair gel to mess it up, etc..

If you DON'T have black hair, buy a wig! =)

I have no other options. =/ Sorry!

Hoped it helped, and happy Bday! *squee*

EDIT: And if you want some pale lips too- rub a brown smarties against them til' they look pale enough. =) If you think it's too dark colored- use yellow smarties... And etc...
