[DeLa Doll] Wednesday Addams Cosplay & Makeup Tutorial (Dolloween Look #1)

If you read my last post, you probably saw me mention my personal cosplay and makeup challenge that I have dubbed “Dolloween” because, you know, “DeLa Doll” is my name and I just like Halloween-based puns.  Dolloween lasts from October 14 – October 31st, and is basically just me trying out a new cosplay or makeup look every day! Yesterday was Dolloween Day 1, and I decided to kick things off with an OG Spooky Girl: Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family!

The Cosplay

The process for creating this cosplay was fairly simple! Finding a dress that was similar to Wednesday’s iconic black dress with the white collar proved to be pretty easy. Next, I styled a black wig that I already had on hand by carefully combing it into two pigtails and braiding it. Finally, I contoured the fuck out of my face to create more gaunt and semi-dead looking features. I also did an eye makeup look using the “Beautiful Nightmare” Milani eyeshadow palette that I bought despite saying I wasn’t buying any more eyeshadow this year. My excuse is that it’s a limited edition Halloween themed palette, and it was very worth it. This brings me to…
