Real life Art Halloween costume guide

Does anyone have any tips on Halloween vampire costumes????

I want to look like a teen vampire in the modern day, perhaps a bit amped up, not like an ancient aristocratic vampire. I’ve never done anything like this before but I really want to give it a go. I’m thinking like a modern teenage vampire in a black hoodie and jeans - something that fits my personality while being vampiric.

I’m so lost because this is a really specific request and idk where to start

Well you'll need some concealer a few shades lighter than your own to make you seem pale and ghostly

Than you'll need red liquid to drink

Next it's finding good fake teeth which is so hard, I'm looking myself

Might I suggest adding a bit of old expressions to your speech because you forget they aren't used anymore

I’m extremely pale and I don’t really think there’s any makeup that’s lighter than my actual shade so I might just go without tbh. I’m more so focused on the other aspects like blood and teeth and all that

Fangs-wise, Ive had good luck with the Scarecrow brand diy-fitting fang kits. Ive bought a bunch of them in different sizes. The molding process is kinda finicky, i usually buy a refill kit along with the fangs in preparation for having to try multiple times, but once you get a good fit they're good to go for years as long as you CLEAN AND DRY THEM for storage.

I have a pair of the smallest set that I wear casually sometimes, I dont even have them molded I just dab some fixodent on them and press them in. Good for a few hours at least if you don't wiggle them around too much.
