Day of the Dead Female Makeup

Description

When it comes to remembering the dead around the world, there’s only one place that we want to be. Most places decide to don black, carry around a few drab flowers, and maybe have a dull meal to honor their ancestor and loved ones who have passed on to the other side, but in Mexico things are a little different. They throw a giant party more full of colors than a rainbow. The main flower they use? Marigolds! They put them on shrines, in the streets, by graves, and even paint them on their faces! That’s the other thing. Have you ever been to a party that was lame AND had face painting involved? We didn’t think so.

We also love it because it’s right around the time of our favorite holiday too, Halloween! That’s why even if you don’t have any heritage to celebrate, it’s still a fantastic twist on our own classic celebration. A black and white facemask for your skeleton costume can get a little old and…er…dry as bone; but paint it with the bright colors in this kit and you’ll be sure to win the next costume party. You’ll also be sure to have tons of fun doing it too!
