Cosplayer's Guide to Flawless Skin With Make Up

A tutorial made by me to help out all those cosplayers on how to achieve that flawless photoshopped looking skin by just using make up. This was originally made to help out guys who are pretty new to make up but need to learn it for photo or cosplaying purposes (specifically for one of my friends who is getting into cosplay and doesn't know where to begin with makeup). More cosplay make up help can be found at the forums of Cosplay(dot)com. Please ignore the fact that the video is squished, it was the only way I know of to upload the video in higher quality...

If you have any comments or questions about this tutorial feel free to post it here, and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. At some point I'll be posting up some video wig tutorials also, such as sharpie wig dyeing, and cutting or styling tutorials depending on how many people are interested. Once again thank you for watching and I hope this video helps you!

Make Up I Used -
- CoverBlend Multi-Fuction Concealer with SPF 15 in Beige by Exuviance
- Pore Putty Concealer by SANA
- Pore Putty Face Powder with SPF 30 by SANA
- Kryolan Anti-Shine Powder

I am cosplaying a character that is a lighter skin tone than me, do you recommend that i do this but with all lighter shades or do this, then apply lighter on top, and also do you recommend making any shown skin pale or just leaving it to my face? thank you

[TsunenTsusho]

@ChatoicGoddess How much lighter are we talking about? Like from a NC30 to NC25? Or more like NC30 to NC10? General rule is only to go two shades of foundation lighter, any lighter and it will longer too unnatural. If you are only going alittle lighter, before doing all the steps use a lavender based foundation primer to color correct your skin tone to be whiter, then proceed with rest of tutorial. Lastly use lighter color foundation powder on top after doing all steps.

Where did you buy the kryolan powder? Online? I need a good, strong, nearly industrial setter for my newest character so that even rubbing doesn't take the makeup off. XD

Awesome tutorials, girl! You've definitely helped a LOT of people.

[TsunenTsusho]

I bought it from ebay but honestly the ABSOLUTE BEST setter I used ever was Ben Nye Final Seal. It's a spray seal that makes even creme make up stay for days until you rub it off in a hot shower with lots of soap.

There's a place called Make up store, but I don't know if it exists outside sweden... :/ they have good pale makup

This tutorial is amazing! However, I have a question. >= My acne is extremely annoying and peppers itself on my neck and chest. How would I go about covering that up? Would I use the same exact thing, or perhaps change the color of the concealer a bit? I'm also worrying a lot about the amount I would have to use. This stuff tends to get expensive to use if I end up using it on my neck and chest as well every time I cosplay. >=

OMG i'm going to sakuracon too!

I'll be going fri&sat for sure, but im not completely sure 'bout sunday. I'll be the midget edward elric(wearing REAL leather pants) or a midget Soubi Agatsuma. Look for me?

[MzLenaLove]

Great Tutorial! Do you have one on how to get the white vampire anime skin for the face! NOT bright white but a suttle white? I don't know what products to use and how to apply correctly. =( I have SAKURA-CON coming up and I'm a character from Angel Sanctuary so I need white fair looking skin but my skin is your color. Help please??? Sakura Con is April! Can you do a tutorial for me as a request?

[GothicZakuro]

If you wear translucent powder over your make-up and reapply it occasionally, then the make-up wont be washed off by your sweat. I wear a crap load of it whenever I am in a play, because being in some of those costumes and under those stage lights is like the inferno of hell has been contained in one room.

[Ariehuisje]

Cool hair! Btw, I do children's shows from time to time and when on stage, my skin has to be flawless too. If you really wanna go easy, you can buy stage make-up. It's applied with a wet spunge, and not really good for your skin. But guaranteed, you see nothing. No wrinkles, freckles, acne.. Gotta practice with it a bit though. You should find your matching colour. And afterwards apply a bit of reflecting powder and blush to look more natural.

Thnx for uploading!:)
