A cute bee costume for carnival, a themed children's birthday party or perhaps the next summer festival is particularly popular with small children. However, carnival clothing would only be half as beautiful without the right make-up. Would your child like to transform into the clever, pretty Maya the Bee or her best friend Willi? Or perhaps you would like to act as the queen bee yourself and create an elegant and dramatic look? In our picture gallery we have put together great ideas for you on how you can make yourself or your child look like a bee. Instructions will show you how to apply make-up as a bee step by step.
Step-by-step makeup instructions
Materials required:
Schminkpinsel
Application sponge
Make-up color in white, black, yellow, orange and pink
black eyeshadow
pink lipstick
yellow mascara
damp cloths
optional: yellow contact lenses
1. First apply a black eye shadow to the lower lash line and above the crease. Just below, apply white face paint to the eyelid and the inner corner of the eye. Then apply black eyeliner and some mascara.
2. Apply white makeup paint to the face by layering the color well over the eyebrows and on the nose. Now paint yellow circles around the eyes. Then draw a white line above the eyebrows and a yellow line directly above them. Between the eyebrows, make a few vertical, short stripes of yellow and orange using orange makeup paint.
3. To add depth to the bees' eyes, highlight the outer edge of the yellow circles with orange.
4. Then apply a pink stripe below the yellow-orange rings on the cheekbones, which you pull slightly upwards towards the temple.
5. Paint the area around the mouth, above the lips and chin, with white. This will make your lips appear smaller.
6. Now make alternating horizontal yellow and black stripes on your cheeks.
7. To mimic the bee's tiny mouth, apply the pink lipstick to just the center of your mouth, leaving the corners of your mouth white.
8. Give your bee facewith yellow mascarathe finishing touches.
