Step 1: Set Up

 To start off I had a clean primed face, then I took a glue stick and put that on my brows to make sure they were flat and ready to paint over, I also had on a wig cap. After that I took a white eyeliner pencil and outlined the 'crack' of the skin to the skull and also the shape of the skull.

Step 2: Skull Base

 I then took this lavender colored body paint from Mehron and I put it on where the skull is going to be.

Step 3: Black

 Using a black body paint from Mehron I put that in the hollows of my face. That would be my temple, eye, and nose. I also used a detail brush to add any fine lines and cracks.

Step 4: Shadow

 I need to shadow around the skull and to do this I used two darker purple shadows to start off. I also made sure to shadow where the skin and the skull meet to make sure it looked like the skull was sitting under the skin. I then took a tad bit of black eyeshadow to deepen up the shadows even more.

Step 5: Teeth

 Taking a white body paint I used it to make the teeth for the skull.

Step 6: Fill In

 Taking that black body paint I filled in the cheek hole

Step 7: Teeth Detail

 I used black eyeshadow to shadow around the teeth, and I took purple and black eyeshadow to deepen up the gum section.

Step 8: Pink

 to add a little more color I added some pink shadow around the skull.

Step 9: Other Side

 I took a foundation and put it on then set it with translucent powder.

Step 10: Outline

 I used the white eyeliner to outline the eye look witch it going to be a butterfly wing. I used a reference photo to help me.

Step 11: Base

 For the base of the wing I used dark purple and light purple body paint.

Step 12: Base of Lid

 For the base of the lid I used a white jumbo pencil from NYX.

Step 13: Detail

 I put some pink on the lid then used a black liner to make a wing and added some dots on my inner corner .

Step 15: White Body Paint

 I used the white body paint to add dots on the wings and some other little details

Step 16: Lips

 I put on some nice pink lipstick.

Step 17: Random Face Stuff

 I contoured my cheeks and added blush.

Step 18: Drips

 To make it look even more like the skin was pooping up I added a shadow around the crack.

Step 20: Body Start

 I used the white eyeliner to map out the crack on my neck.

Step 21: Fill It In

 I used the purple to fill in the bones, and black to fill in the rest.

Step 22: Shadow

 Using the same to purple shadows and black shadow I shadowed around that neck hole.

Step 23: Hole

 I filled in a black hole on my chest where the butterflies are coming from then I used brown shadow to create the lifted skin look

Step 24: Butterfly
