It has been quite a bit of time since we last updated with a gothic makeup tutorial, today I bring to you a cyber Goth makeup tutorial, something that we didn’t talked about since almost the start of the Website.
The good part of this makeup tutorial is that I have the feeling that changing the yellow for a red tone we should be able to make it suit perfectly any Goth ambient (not only cyber), let’s see if someone tries it so we can see how it shows with that change of tone. (Please send a photo so we all can see it).
This video is a little bit long, as always we start with the video and then I try to explain the better I can with words what it’s going on, and intercalating some photos so you are able to print it.
Let’s start by applying a yellow (or gold) tone of eye shadow all over the upper lid, that it the tone that will give the cyber Goth style and it’s the one that I commented that changing with red we should be able to change the overall view of the makeup to something more “standard” Goth.
Then we apply a purple eye shadow over the external side of the eye (starting there where the yellow eye shadow ends) and extending it slightly to the outside.
We will change the brush to an angle brush that works perfectly for creating lines with eye shadows and then apply the same purple tone over the yellow eye shadow, note how she also blurs the purple tone with the yellow so the transition isn’t too rude.
If all goes well, the makeup at this point should look something like this:
Next steep consist in giving the overall look a more cyber look by applying with the angled brush a silver grey line from the interior of the eye to the upper side just below the eyebrows (just a short line, don’t extend it too much).
Then she uses a cream base spray over the back of her hand and mix it with green eye shadow, then she apply the mix just below the lower eyelashes and below the purple tone that be applied previously to the external side of the eye.
This is the first time that I see the trick of mixing a base with a eye shadow but I think it will add bright to the eye shadow and therefore is perfectly suitable for a cyber Goth makeup.
Next steep it’s easier: just pick a black pencil and delineate the water line of the lower lid, then apply a bit of black eye shadow.
In the following photo you should be able to see the result of the green eye shadow and the lower lid delineation:
Personally I think that if you want to remove the “cyber” tone, you should change the green with maybe a bloody red or something like that.
We have arrive to the final touches, for doing them we will use the black liquid eyeliner and with it we will paint some fake spots over the eyebrow, then we delineate the upper lid just over the eyelashes and between the purple and the green colors that we applied to the external side of the eye.
With a angles brush apply some touches of silver grey in the interior side of the eye and then a black line just below the green tone on the external side of the eye, add a few fake spots with the black liquid eyeliner just below the black line you just added.
Finally just apply black mascara over the eyelashes, then add a fake dramatic eyelashes of your choice, delineate the lips with a black pencil and fill it with a purple lipstick.
If you want it not to be cyber Goth, just change the purple lipstick with a red tone or a black one.
And that’s it!
Final result should look something like this:
Hope you liked it ;).
