20. The Gothic Victorian Doll
Combine sweet innocence with eerie gothic undertones in this stunning Victorian doll makeup look. The goal is to make your features appear unnaturally large and porcelain-smooth. Start with a full-coverage, matte foundation that is slightly lighter than your natural skin tone. Use a pink blush directly on the apples of your cheeks in a perfect, small circle rather than blending it outward, creating a classic doll-like flush.
To make your eyes look massive, line your lower waterline with a thick white pencil, and draw a new “lower lash line” slightly below your natural one using a brown eyeshadow. Apply dramatic, spiky false eyelashes to both your upper and lower lids. For the lips, apply a deep plum or blood-red lipstick only to the very center of your mouth, leaving the outer edges concealed to create a tiny, delicate doll pout. A lace collar and a velvet ribbon in your hair complete this beautifully haunting look.
