Gothic Makeup

Sunday, 19 July 2009

gothic makeupThe gothic look won the popularity among young people in the nineties, and has held its popularity for years, becoming a fully fledged subculture.  The look of the Goth is dark and mystifying. By the mid to late 1980s, the Goth movement was waning. In the late eighties and early nineties, a new, second generation of gothic bands emerged to breathe new life into the scene.

The Goths were primarily inspired by the Middle Age history, Celtic culture and vampire stories.  Goths are in favor of some elegance and extravagance to some extent in their attires and cold stagy makeup. And the Goth culture requires for special makeup.

Strong and straight symmetry is not typical to gothic style. The makeup techniques involve subtle to dramatic paleness as the foundation. The best way to apply white cream foundation is to approach the face as a blank canvas to work with. The Gothic makeup is strong enough thanks to contrast of pale face, artificial eyelash and dark shade of lipstick. Whiteface makeup is applied to create the illusion that you really are that pale, and not look like you have just plastered your face with white paint. Goths use white powder or regular cosmetic powder that is several shades lighter than the regular skin color to pull off the pale look. When you are applying the base, try to make sure that you do it evenly, and don't overdo it! Also try to smooth it into the entire face, don't just end it at the jaw line, Goth makeup is great stuff, so try to use it responsibly! Black or purple lipstick is popular with Goths, on the top of it black or dark-purple nail polish will be appropriate to look like a real representative of Goth subculture. To underline your eyes you'd better get soft eye pencil of black color. Yet, you may use it to line your lips as well. They should be very expressive also.

Make sure you have Subtle Black or Deep-Purple Lipstick if you want your makeup Gothic and elegant at the same time. You should be going for one of two types of look with lipstick. Either subtle, or a high contrast. You may use blood-red colors since if done properly your lips will look good enough for real Goth. Trying dark colors and distinguishing against the crowd, Goths want to look splendid but not horrible like Halloween figures.

Considering eye-shadows, apply some white shadows on the upper lid as the base and dark-grey or black shadows to make your eyes more expressive. Compact, powder or liquid shadows are good enough to use. Liquid eyeliner is also good for Gothic makeup since it does not run and you can wear your makeup all the day long.

False eyelashes help your eyes look more open and deep. Non-black eyelash but of various colors may look impressive unless you find it uncomfortable for everyday use. Otherwise, use classic mascara of good quality. Currently they are marketed in a plenty of types and colors and differ from mascara to mascara, for sensitive eyes, thin eyelash and exclusive types of mascara to make your natural eyelash look thicker and longer. Black color of hair so typical for Goths should not contrast with the color of your mascara, so blacks are the best solution. Blue or Violet color mascara will look very attractive and eye-catching. There are loads of gothic hair dyes out there, and the ways in which you use them may vary a lot depending on your own hair color. If you have very dark hair naturally then you may need to lighten or bleach it slightly in order for lighter colors such as reds, greens or blues to show through.

Many men, many minds. And there are several Goths who again prefer using professional theater makeup. Though regular use of such heavy makeup is harmful for the skin, even if it is Goth's skin. Apart from makeup, Goths observe other attributes typical and binding to them, in particular specific behavioral philosophy, special trends and face piercing. Though, not all Goths, particularly girls, are ready to have faces pierced. They opt for other ways to decorate faces, as with special on-glue stresses or spangles. You know Gothic makeup is not only for female Goths. Male Goths also like wearing this makeup for everyday use and for various functions and events. Though, guys, bear in mind that «less is better than more» in regards to cosmetics.
