Tiger Make-up: Materials

You need:

  • Make-up in white, black, orange and yellow
  • Make-up sponge
  • Brushes in different sizes

Here we have an instruction for you, how you can easily make up children’s make-up yourself – and that without questionable ingredients.

Tiger Make-up: Instructions

  1. Before you apply the make-up, you should put some cream on your face: It protects the skin and makes make-up stick better. A moisturizer serves its purpose here. Also, tie back longer hairs so that they do not interfere with the make-up.
  2. Now the primer is applied: The area above the eyes and between the upper lip and nose is primed white with a sponge. The area above the eyebrows runs diagonally to the hairline. The nose area running out towards the cheeks and between the eyebrows is primed yellow, while the remaining area is painted orange. Make sure that the colours blend well – separated areas look unnatural.
  3. Paint on black pattern:

Now only the typical black pattern and the black tiger snout are missing. Make up the tip of the nose black and let a line run from the nose to the upper lip. To frame the white tiger’s snout, follow two lines running along the smile lines in the mouth area. Crossing these lines, paint lines towards the middle. Now only the remaining lines are missing on the cheeks, forehead and eye area. If you like, you can add points for whiskers in the area between upper lip and nose.

Tips for girls: If you would rather become a sweet tiger cat, tint your eyes black and paint a black eyelid line with Kajal, which runs out swinging. A little golden glitter makes the face shine additionally.

The mouth area can be loosened up with a few white whiskers. The black stripe pattern was painted around the face here.
