Step-by-Step Witch Face Paint
Witch face painting for Halloween might seem tricky, but with the right tips and a bit of practice, you’ll create a spooky and stunning look in no time. In this guide, you’ll learn step by step how to paint a frightfully beautiful witch — perfect for beginner face painters who want to shine during the spookiest party of the year!
Step 1
We’ll start with purple face paint, applying it as eyeshadow to the outer part of the eyelid.
Step 2
Apply some orange along the inner corner of the eyelid. Add more orange on the cheekbones and above the eyebrow. Make sure it forms a half-circle shape.
Step 3
Use black to create the witch's hat. It should go over the orange as well.
Step 4
Now fill in the hat with black face paint. If you’re not happy with the shape at first, this is the perfect moment to adjust it.
Step 5
Using black, we now add some spiderweb lines: draw 5 lines from the outer corner of the eye toward the inner corner, and 3 lines above the eyebrow going toward the tip of the hat.
Step 6
Now connect the lines using black to complete the spiderweb.
Step 7
Use black to paint a spider on the cheek. Start with a round shape, then add a slightly smaller half-circle on top of it. Add two small lines to the top half-circle to create feelers. Then, paint 4 legs on each side of the spider. Make sure each leg starts from the small half-circle. Each leg consists of 3 short connected lines.
Step 8
Connect the spider to the web with a few small dots.
Step 9
Add some white highlights to the spider and the hat.
With this easy step-by-step guide, you can transform any face into a spooky yet beautiful witch in no time – perfect for Halloween!
