Masquerade Ball Costume

I wore this costume as I wanted to do something atypical of what every other girl would do for Halloween. It was a fun experience as no one knew who I was and I couldn't smile with the silicon mask, so I was able to keep a terrifying character going all night. I had grown adults run away from me at the bar.

It all started when I asked my friend to make me scary. I had an old ballgown dress I wore for Halloween as a vampire so that was the start. Curled my fine hair in tight ringlets and let cool down. Then teased like crazy and applied hairspray!!! From there we sprayed my face white then applied a silicone mask. Glued pieces of paper towel and tissue to the edges to give the pealing affect. Let dry then got fake blood makeup and applied to outer edges. Make sure to blacken the eyes first. Added a doll mask to hide behind for effect. A little acting and sense of humor, it turned into a ball!
