Dark Avatar Make-Up Tutorial

My camera decided to go on strike and didn't record half of my tutorial so I had to re-record it today so if you're wondering that's why it looks slightly different. And yes I know this dose not look totally like tha Na'vi. Unfortunately I dont have the cosmetics to create a totally realistic Na'vi so i had to use what I had to create more of a Human-like Na'vi. An in case you wanted to know this took me an hour and a half do do:) Not a short look to do by any standards:-) What I used: Palmers Cocoa Butter Elf Eyeshadow Primer- 120 Pro Pallet ( was bought and is sold on E-Bay) elf blush brush elf contour brush elf angled foundation brush w7 gel eyeliner glam crystals gel eyeliner Disclaimer: All elf products were sent to me for free. EVERYTHING else was bought with my own money and I am in no way shape or form being paid to use, show or mention them. I use it because I like it, end of story. Music is by Kevin MacLeod

Avatar Movie Costumes - Full Costume and Makeup Choices

With Avatar costumes you can dress up like Jake Sully or Neytiri in the distinctive look of navi blue and aqua blue. You definitely won't be mistaken for any other movie heroes.

There are costumes from the movie Avatar for boys and girls, men and women. This is also a unique costume as you have your choice of going full makeup route, or go easy and buy a ready to go Avatar costume with mask and clothing.

The Jake Sully costume comes with shirt, coat and pants with attached tail and full mask for the men's version and half mask for boy's version. Sexy Neytiri Costume comes with a tight striped body suit with attached tail, front apron, arm gauntlet and beads. It comes in sizes for girls and women. These costumes do not come with masks so they will need makeup to really complete the Navi look. For those men and boys who want to make their own costume but not want to put on makeup there is a beautiful full size Jake Sully latex mask with wig. Those guys who are willing to do their own makeup there is a Jake Sully wig available. There is also a Neytiri wig for those ladies who will make their own costumes.

No Avatar warrior costume is complete without weapons like Navi spears, knifes and bow and arrows.

These costumes are great for Halloween trick or treating and Halloween party's, going to your favorite event like Avatar viewing party or conventions like Comic-Con.

How Can I Do My Own Avatar Makeup?

No Avatar costume is complete without a great makeup and that is why most people has been asking "how can I do my own Avatar makeup?" Here is a few simple steps to do your own Avatar makeup.

1. Braid your hair:
This can be done on your own or get some helping hands. You may also substitutes for wigs. Hair is actually the most versatile part of Avatar makeup since you can style it to your desired look. It doesn't have to be exactly like the movie characters. Just have fun and it will give variations to the actual characters.

2. Put yellow contact lenses:
This is optional since colored contact lenses could cost you more than the whole costume itself. Your dark eyes would do just fine.

3. Foundation:
This is a good base for the blue color and also help degrease your skin so that you will have a smoother color application afterward.

4. Paint your face:
Now you can start painting your face including your ears using blue color face paint. It will be great to apply at least 2 layers of color for better results. If you plan to use elf ear tips, you might as well color those ear tips using blue acrylic paint. Let it dry.

5. Draw your eyebrows:
Using eyebrow pencil start shaping your eyebrows.

6. Re-create your eyes:
Using black eyeshadow you can give a dark tone around your eyes. This is optional, however for girls eyes will absolutely look sexier.

7. Put your stripes on:
After your base color which is the light blue has dried, you can start paint the stripes using dark blue facial paint. Draw these stripes starting from the outer side of your face moving inwards with the tip of the stripes all pointing to your nose.

8. Cat's eye:
Use eyeliner to create the cat's eye look. This will give you a staring-like eyes.

9. Put white dots:
Following the stripes pattern, draw the white dots onto you forehead.

10. Finishing touch:
You can finish your makeup with elf ears and fangs to give your makeup a real Avatar look.

Avatar Makeup Tutorial With Airbrush Makeup

The Avatar movie was an absolute sensation, the graphics were incredible, and the world they created simply magical. This is no doubt going to translate into a lot of merchandising but the most fun thing will be all the Na'Vi inspired looks that come out at costume parties, and especially Halloween. This Avatar makeup tutorial should give you the basics of how to get a great Na'Vi look for the next fancy dress party, or just for fun.

The very first thing to do is to get some great images to inspire you, facial close ups are essential. All Avatar makeup tutorials will tell you that the underlying look for the Na'Vi is actually cat. So this means big eyes, broad nose at the eyes, and that pussy-cat nose (fangs are an option too, as they had them in the movie).

So to start the Avatar makeup tutorial, you'll need to get a nice white base going on your face, especially if you have a darker skin tone as the white will really make the blue stand out as a true color. The base color of the Na'Vi is actually quite a baby blue, so using a baby blue color cover your whole face over the white (don't forget to blend down to the neck and ears - any place that will be showing). Next you need to contour your nose to make it appear wider up the top. This is simply done by taking a darker shade of blue and shading a line outwards from the corner of the eye down to the nostrils.

Every Avatar makeup tutorial will use different products for coloring, so it's up to you whether you want to use a cream color, powders or even have fun airbrushing (this will definitely be the quickest option). Using home airbrushing kits like those from Dinair can really let you get creative with your Na'Vi look, as they have a great range of colors available, and will provide the most authentic skintone.

The next step in this Avatar makeup tutorial is to put in the darker markings. Now each Na'Vi person has individual markings, so you can make them up - but the key is to make each side of the face symmetrical - thinking along the lines of a tiger won't hurt either.

In this Avatar makeup tutorial I will recommend using an angled brush with a powder in a dark blue to draw in the outlines, then to fill them in when you are happy - using the Dinair airbrush would be great for this step. Once this is done, then use a blue color with a hint of plum in it for the lips, and a more purple color to contour your nose (cat style) to give the illusion of a smaller tip. Big eyes are essential, so lining the bottom water line with white will help give the illusion of bigger eyes. If you have yellow contact lenses this will complete to look well.

The last step in this Avatar makeup tutorial is to apply the luminescent dots that the Na'Vi all have. These are relatively random in placement, so take a white pigment and give yourself a smattering of these luminous dots.

For the whole thing to work perfectly, a long black wig in a Native American style hairdo will be the finishing touch to recreate an authentic Na'Vi look.
