Time for Halloween Tutorial #3! I am really trying to get these up in advanced up of Halloween so you have time to gather your materials and practice. Oh, and did I mention that I will be in the Dominican Republic the week of Halloween for vacay? Today I decided to recreate a character from a very favorite childhood cartoon - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! On top of that, they came out with the new movie this year so a whole new generation is getting in on it. Check it out!

Check out the video!
I must say, I think I preferred the more cartoon-ish version of the old TMNT versus the steroid-pumped new guys. With that said, I am still a girl so I will make this makeup as cute as possible. I decide to do a mask face paint instead of an entire green look - much more wearable i'd say. To accomplish this, I used my Graftobian Pro Paints which are water activated body makeups that are super opaque and in a variety of shades. I absolutely love this product for any kind of face or body painting - the color impact is amazing and it's easy to wipe away and start over since it's water based.

I chose to Raphael since he had the color red and I figured I could bust out some red lipstick! I used a new lipstick I picked up from Wet N Wild called StopLight Red which was just $1.99.
I scored this awesome TMNT dress from Amazon. I love that it flares out and is super flattering. Throw on some heels, green if you have them, and you're good to go!
