FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS

	1) Draw two white circles
	Use white grease paint, on a sponge or brush, to draw two large circles around your eyes. You're about to become muy bone-ita!

 

	2) Apply white makeup
	Use a sponge or brush to apply white makeup. We've found "grease" makeup works best for this look!

	3) Fill in the eyes
	Using a fresh sponge or brush, color the eye area with marigold yellow. Leave the skin on your eyelids and a small area below your eyes bare for the next step.

 

	4) Add eye detail
	Time to get drop-dead gorgeous! Use pink crayon, or makeup on a brush, to draw lines from your mouth to your ears. Use black crayon to layer black on the pink lines. Frame your eyes with pink spots. Apply pink to eyelids.

	5) Add black details
	Using black eyeliner or black crayon, it's time to get creative! Create flower shapes around your eyes and add lines around your mouth to mimic a skeleton. Just one more step!

 

	6) Finish the look!
	Add eyelashes and teal makeup on the space under your lower lash line and set the face with colorless setting powder (it will help the grease makeup stay all night long!). You're ready for your wig. Put on all of your accessories and touch up any makeup once that's done. What lovely bones!
