How do I do a last minute dead ballerina costume. And how do I make it creepy?! I am only 13 so I cannot drive

I have ripped up tights, black leotard and old ballet shoes. How should I fix my hair and should I paint my nails black? I don%26#039;t want to make it too gory I just want people to see me and know that I am a dead ballerina!

I think I would look to makeup to create the %26quot;dead%26quot; effect. Really pale to white foundation, dark to black rings around your eyes and your eyelids to make your eyes look sunken. Hollow out your cheek bones with grey or black as well so you get a gaunt appearance. You could paint your nails black, but you don%26#039;t want them to look perfect. I%26#039;d suggest kind of scraping off some of the nailpolish after it dries to make it look like maybe you were clawing your way out of a coffin or something. Make sure your hair is mega messy. Hair spray it and tease it to be wild. Oh yes, black lipstick and don%26#039;t forget to put the lighter foundation on your neck too.
Reply:Do you have any nylon netting? That could be shredded for a scary dead tutu skirt....
Reply:make your face pale, put dark makeup around eyes, blood trickleing down your eyes, put your hair on top your head make it a messy bun or ponytail.nails could be black or darkred.
Reply:If youcan get some gray and black powders and lightly pat it all over your exposed skin. Rub the outside of the costume in some dirt to give it that old look.





A little gray and white powder in the hair( don%26#039;t it should wash out). Black eye shadow around the eyes makes them look sunken it.





That%26#039;s enough for now





Have fun
Reply:Like the 1st answerer said, I%26#039;d make your face look very pale, with darkened eyes...





Make your hair all rustled up, and look tangly, matted... (Bed head.. but really bad) Just a huge mess...





Put some baby powder/flour in your hands and work it through your hair to make it dirty and dusty looking (Make sure to get as much of it out as you can before washing it)





Have fun!
Reply:You could paint your nails black, but I would also powder your skin down so you look really white, and then smudge dark grey shadow around your eyes to make them look sunken in and dead. You may also want to add fake blood coming from your lip %26amp; powder down your hair so you look %26quot;dusty%26quot; like you%26#039;ve been rotting for a while.





Have fun!
