The shoe is an important choice when improvising the witch costume.

- Wiccan and goth-style accessories (especially chokers, long necklaces and bracelets) make all the difference!
- Corsets or corsets can be worn over the dress, in case it’s petite and you think something is missing.

❤ makeup
Witch’s makeup is one of the most important points of the costume, after all, it is what brings the dark side of the character.
Basic make up
- To do witch makeup at home, use dark smoky eyeshadow (brown, black, purple or red), and not eyeliner.
- It is worth using false eyelashes, which are present in the lives of practically all women today.
- Lipstick to make the mouth well-marked can be purple or black, depending on your skin tone and personal taste.
- The eyebrows can be well defined and arched, for a naughty look.
Details
- With strong, waterproof eyeliner, draw an inverted moon on your forehead.
- To enhance your mouth makeup, make an ombré lip using black and shades like wine and burgundy.
- If the idea is a very dark look, you can simulate that smudged mascara running down your eyes.
- For a cadaverous look, abuse the contour with foundation or powder, highlighting the cheekbones and creating deep dark circles.
- You can also create a crackle under the eyes if you wish.
Tip: do you want to rock with an amazing artistic makeup? So consider looking for a professional makeup artist. It can be quite exhausting and frustrating trying to make a super elaborate makeup at home, without having the technique or the proper materials for it.
❤ Decorated nails
Nails are very important in the witch costume!
- In a traditional costume, to make your nails beautiful and horrifying, opt for a black or dark nail polish (burgundy, wine, among others)
- Those who do not have long natural nails can use ready-to-use black fake nails. With less than R$ 10 reais you can find several different options!
- Now, for greater impact, make a nail stretch beforehand (acrylic, fiber, etc.) in the stiletto format.
