How to Do Cute Punk Makeup (Girls)

Bold and daring girls often do the punk makeup to highlight their strong personality. It also adds variety to the everyday look of a girl. Punk makeup typically consists of more than just your regular lip gloss and eyeshadow. A cute punk makeup is more daring and it’s often characterized by a dark makeup. However, this doesn’t mean you can’t be pretty with it. Avril Lavigne and the singer from Paramore often sport this kind of makeup, which complements the music hey play.

Here is how you can achieve that rocker look:

1.         Choose an outfit first and think about how you are going to match your outfit’s colors.

2.         Choose which one to use – the LIQUID or KOHL eyeliner. Deciding which one to use could change your entire look. Kohl, which is more commonly in the form of a pencil, has a more dull and softened look while the liquid, which can be found in tubes and is applied with a brush, can give you a much more dramatic effect.

3.         Choose your colors – pink, bright purple, teal, etc. Don’t choose brown, beige and other neutral colors because they don’t go well with the punk look as they don’t stand out from conventional colors of makeup.

4.         Always begin with a clean canvas and wash your face. Practice good hygiene all the time no matter what makeup style you choose because if you don’t, your face could break out. Wear foundation with some SPF to protect your face while under the sun. Use a concealer to hide blemishes.

5.         Go crazy with the eyes. Layer some bright colors along the lid with another darker shade that is blended along the crease. You can create a smokey effect on your eyes by going with black and gray eyeshadow. You can also include one daring swoop of liquid eyeliner to the outer corners and sweep them up.

6.         You can make your lips look bold as well or you can make them simple with just a dab of gloss. A chic punk look for your lips would be with lavender on top and bright pink or fuchsia on the bottom. If you choose to focus on your eyes, you can just go simple with your lips.

7.         You may choose to draw shapes on your face (heart, star, sun) just like what punks do. No matter how crazy you get, don’t forget to set your makeup with powder to make it stay.
