  4. Apply a red toned eye shadow just under your lower lash line as well as the outer corner of your eye. Top off with some dark brown eyeshadow.

  5. Apply black eyeliner to the waterline, along with mascara (or false eyelashes for a more dramatic effect.)

  6. Fill out your eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil.

  7. Use a black liquid lipstick to outline your lips.

  8. Then fill your lips out using a dark brown or red lipstick.

  9. Throw on a pair of fangs and add some fake blood in the corners of your mouth and you're good to go!
