Hello guys, so I have this idea for a white makeup look, which I think can look very bright and subtle if done right, so I’m here to ask for products and advice about the look.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Appearance (Scroll for TLDR\/appearance overview):<\/h1>\n

Skin<\/strong>: Very dewy foundation. Just a simple foundation, no concealer. I have fair, cool-toned skin so I’ll use my normal foundation shade. No concealer because I want a little redness to show under my eyes, and give the look some contrast. I might also add a soft pink blush under my eyes to further highlight the color of the dark circles. Applying powder to oily areas (under the eyes, chin, forehead, upper lip).<\/p>\n

(Other)<\/em><\/strong> The foundation<\/strong>: No bronzer. A light, very cool-toned contour. I’m going to use my almost gray stick to sculpt the cheeks and nose. A light pink blush is included, but not overly so. I leave it in a slightly visible circular shape right on the apple of my cheek, not blending it into the cheeks or nose. A blinding white highlighter on the forehead and cheeks.<\/p>\n

Browsers<\/strong>: A \u201cfrosty\u201d white appearance. I want to achieve this with a highly pigmented white brow gel if possible, or mascara if not. I won’t define the brows like I usually do, I’ll just fix the hair and add color. My natural brows are very light and small so this should be easy.<\/p>\n

The eyes<\/strong>: White eyeliner wing. A white shadow all over the outer corner and spread across the temple. White stick liner on waterline and lash line. Bold white lashes over colored white mascara (false top and bottom). My natural lashes are long and curled up, but very light.<\/p>\n

Details\/voice:<\/strong> Star shape like this \u2747\ufe0f on the forehead. Not shaded in, I think I use a white stick to draw the outline of the shape, blend\/separate it nicely so it’s really soft but still holds its shape, then use a white liquid liner to trace the outline over the shape.<\/p>\n

The hair<\/strong>: Hidden explosion (1990s). I need help deciding if I should do a platinum blonde (almost white) wig, or leave my natural hair dark, reddish brown.<\/p>\n

Lips<\/strong>: There is no color, he may even put the concealer on top, except in the middle, where there will be a pale pink color. See: “douyin lips.”<\/p>\n

TLDR\/Look Overview:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Me: very light skin, lashes and brows. Dewy \u201cno-makeup\u201d foundation (light cool-toned contour, less blocking, exposed dark circles\/no under eye concealer). A lot of highlighter. Undefined “frosty” eyebrows – white gel or mascara. White on the waterline, sharp eyeliner with white wings over a large area of \u200b\u200bwhite shadow spread from the outer corner to the temple. White mascara + big falsies (top and bottom). Subtle pink douyin lips. Wide outline of star\/shiny (\u2747\ufe0f) on forehead, also white. A subtle burst of hair, deciding between a natural dark reddish brown color or a platinum wig.<\/p>\n

What I need from you guys…<\/h1>\n

First, product recommendations!<\/strong> I need really pigmented products for this because I’m pale you guys. I need makeup to be seen! Something waterproof would be preferred, I have really watery eyes, but waterproof is fine too as I won’t be wearing this for long anyway.<\/em><\/p>\n

Products I need:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • white mascara<\/li>\n
  • white liquid liner<\/li>\n
  • stick of white or cream eyeshadow (for waterline and forehead accent)<\/li>\n
  • A white PIGMENTED eyeshadow to set the cream and blend the edges!<\/li>\n
  • white brow gel (if this is not available I can use white mascara on my brow!)<\/li>\n
  • blinding white highlighter, preferably liquid or cream to keep things dewy! But those tend to be a bit shimmery \ud83d\ude41 so maybe powder is better for this, lmk your thoughts!<\/li>\n
  • loose or loosely packed white glitter! *Not* shimmer eyeshadow, I need glitter<\/li>\n
  • good glitter glue to keep my glitter in place!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Second, advice\/questions!<\/strong> Scroll down for the TLDR.<\/em><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Should I get a wig? Note: I can’t afford an expensive wig (no more than $50) and I’ve never worn wigs before so it will look pretty bad I think, although I’ll try my best and find one with curtains to hide the hairline. My problem here\u2014blonde hair will definitely suit a low-light look better and dark hair will stand out and distract from the look. However, is this worth having a bad wig and making the whole thing look like a costume instead of planning?<\/li>\n
    • Should I do the shading with light gray or pink? I need to look for a star and eyeliner to keep it from blending with a diffused shadow or even a pale foundation. I will use a small brush and I want to hide the shade in such a way that the tracking is not visible, and the makeup still looks like white. Would gray or pink be a better fit? The reason I’m thinking pink at all is because my fair skin is already pink so my thinking is that maybe a pink blush would look natural and not draw attention at all. But I could be wrong about that hahaha.<\/li>\n
    • Colored contacts??? My eyes are naturally green\/blue, but not too bright or frosty. They are almost dark grey, with green and blue undertones. I don’t want this to be a scary look though so I’m not sure about the white contacts, I’m worried that will give a “scary” effect. Maybe another color, like ice blue? Or even color meat? \ud83d\ude33 IDK!! Unlock anything!<\/li>\n
    • Where should I add glitter? My goal is to create a heavenly\/ethereal\/radiant look as stated, not like an albino rave look. Although that might be a good idea for another look hahah. So how should I tastefully apply and gloss to accentuate the look but not take away from it?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      TLDR for Questions\/Advice<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Leave the hair natural or get a platinum wig, remember I can buy a cheap wig and I won’t be able to fit it properly<\/li>\n
      • I want to add a subtle shading to keep everything from being completely disjointed, but I don’t want the shading itself to be visible: should I use pale pinks or grays for this?<\/li>\n
      • Use colored contacts (what color?) or leave the eyes natural (blue-black-gray)<\/li>\n
      • Where you can subtly add glitter to make it look heavenly rather than just a club look<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Guys thank you so much for any help or product suggestions you can give me!!!<\/h1>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
