EasyMeWorld: Halloween Crying Ghost Face Painting Tutorial

Our silly family decided to paint our faces to share with you some ideas on how to paint your face for Halloween. I know that as a mom I always wanted to find inexpensive costumes for my kids and we always liked to get creative. We found it very costly to buy costumes in the stores and they weren't very original. This is an inexpensive way to make your Halloween costume original and fun for kids AND adults. hehe

YES!! THAT IS A REAL TEAR!! Hahaha

I am not the best face painting subject for sure. This is the

first time I ever had my face painted. I am not sure how

much I will encourage others to paint their faces but it sure

was a HOOT to give it a try. I have very sensitive eyes and almost everything makes them water. The odd feeling of the paint on my face and eye lids REALLY made me cry.

Kymberly's original plan was to paint something really cool

but since I couldn't stop my eyes from watering... I became a crying ghost. hahaha Very fitting. The video is kinda funny.

HOW TO PAINT A CRYING GHOST FACE

This is one of the easiest face paintings ever. The best part... You can cry about it and nobody will notice. LOL This is me right before we started to paint.

I never saw what was coming. Haha

The first thing you do is paint your face, forehead and neck with white acrylic paint. NOTE: We used acrylic paint but I have since learned that face paint is a better choice because acrylic paint can cause serious reactions to your skin even though the bottle says it is non toxic. Here are some face painting tips to follow: http://painting.about.com/od/faceandbodypainting/a/FacePaintCindy.htm

Yikes! As if that is not scary enough!! (The tears started to pour down my face as soon as I opened my eyes)

The next thing you do is paint black circles on and around your eyes. You take the paint brush and pull the black down to give it the look of black tears running down your face.
