The Ethereal Victorian Countess
Step back in time with a look that embodies tragic, antique beauty. This style merges soft, romantic pastel hues with the haunting undertones of the undead. Start with a dewy, pale base and apply a soft, dusty rose blush high on the cheekbones, sweeping it up toward the temples for a Victorian draping effect. The eyes should feature a soft wash of mauve and taupe, with a touch of gold shimmer right in the center of the lids to catch the candlelight. Instead of a harsh liquid liner, opt for a smudged brown kohl pencil. Complete the look with a stained, bitten lip effect, concentrating a deep berry lipstick in the center of the mouth and fading it outward with a finger or cotton swab.
