Helena-inspired makeup

Watch the video on Instagram and Tiktok

I made this look a few weeks ago and I just finished editing the video for the process. I think I'm getting a bit faster with editing now (and filming too) now that I'm getting the hang of it and learning what the most efficient way to do it is.

If you are aware of My Chemical Romance's song "Helena", it was the song I heard from them that instantly made me become a fan. :D

I have this Romand cushion foundation that's way lighter than my shade so I don't use it in regular days but I have expected to just use this in certain makeup looks. It's such a shame that I can't use this outside though because it makes my skin glow and has an awesome coverage, but yeah hopefully at some point they will have the shade for me.

After applying the pale foundation for a "dead" look, I applied some concealer as well. This concealer shade is also too light on me but paired with this foundation is alright.

Then I used the Kaleidos contour palette to give my face a sculpted look especially the cheeks, to have a skull-looking face I guess. XD

Next is the Girlcult eyeshadow palette in Fire. I used the brown color to give depth on my eyes, just thinking where the deep parts of the skull would be.

Then used this red shade around my eyes as well, concentrating them most on the center of the lids.

Then I grabbed the Cheeryep palette and used the black eyeshadow for a smokey look.

Then this red shimmer on the crease, just to give it a bit of a glam lol.

For the lips, I used Kaleidos lip clay in Dahlia and Girlcult lip stain in M62 (black). After applying the black on the center, I drew some spider-looking legs on my mouth. Making it look like a black metal band logo. :D

Lastly, I used Kaleidos highlighter in Mars Melter.

And here's the result. :D I like the lips tbh, it gives the dead feel without being too much. I also though the highlights would somehow just make this look like a red smokey glam but luckily it just went well with the whole look. :D
