@NikkiiMoody 2. Mix your black and white to the shade of grey on your skin on the screen. apply it like a foundation. It should look no different than your skin on the screen of your mac. basically like your applying nothing.
@NikkiiMoody 3. use shades of grey and black shadow and black eye line to do you lipstick(liner) eye make up(liner and shadow) and rouge (shadow). use black and white images of 50's make up as an example of what shades to use. Theres tutorials on how to do vintage make up on youtube for application help. You may want to skip the rouge since it is a red hue and is not necessarily darker than your skin color. I did, however, rouge my cheeks.
@k2r08 get black and white face paint to mix to different shades of grey. then use shades of grey and black shadow and black eye line to do you lipstick(liner) eye make up(liner and shadow) and rouge (shadow). you may want to skip the rouge since rouge adds red hue but is not necessarily darker than your skin and wouldn't always show up in black and white pictures. I did, however, rouge my cheeks with a light grey shadow. I used temporary spray in white hair color and then some silver over it.
@MattTheRipper88 thanks! the make up took a while to wash off but the hair was harder. it was so stiff with tons of hair spray. I remember feeling like a really needed to take a bath after making this costume.
This is what Im doing for halloween! But I can't get the makeup right, any suggestions?

I think it's awesome! I wasn't expecting finding this when I looked up scenes from Pleasentville. It's one of my favorite movies :)
