Full cosplay makeup list!

Since I had some questions after doing a makeup panel at CitrusCon, here is my FULL list of my personal non-character-specific cosplay makeup items, including what colors I use.

Warning: I am extremely pale and grey. Not all of these products have as wide a shade range as I wish they did. This is my own personal list only. Some of these would work great on a wide range of skin tones though! You might notice there’s tons of blushes and eyeshadow palettes here; that’s because I use different colors depending on the characters and their wig colors, but everything here is used for multiple characters.

I’ve linked to everything you can still buy online (since some of these were limited) and described the limited ones so you could get replacements. Yesstyle links are technically affiliate links? I don’t remember signing up for any affiliate code but the links have one so uhhh if you buy from there I might get some reward???

I’ve accumulated this kit over a long, long period of time so it’d be ridiculous to buy it all at once, but almost everything is under $30 and the vast majority is under $20. I love a bargain and I don’t have the cash to buy luxury makeup, no matter how much I might covet those Dior lip products at Sephora.

List and links go under the cut because this is REALLY LONG.

Base makeup

Elmer’s purple disappearing glue stick

Elf Power Grip primer

Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel

Tirtir Mask Fit Red Cushion in 10C Shell

The Saem Cover Perfection Triple Pot Concealer in 03 Correct Up Beige

KimChi Chic powder in Ivander

Club Suppin Powder (I use a limited variant lavender one purchased physically but here is a rose version you can get online)

Blush, contour, and highlight

Peripera V Shading in Grayish Cool

Canmake Shading Powder in 04 Ice Gray Brown

Rituel de Fille Intuition

Etude Lovely Cookie Blusher in PP052 Lavender Lemon Macaron

Etude Lovely Cookie Blusher in PK004 Peach Choux Wafers

Cheerflor Angel Embossed Blush in 1199

Cheerflor Angel Embossed Blush in 1196 (this is a blue color that is a full cheek highlighter. Do not buy this unless you’re extremely pale and either cool or grey.)

Canmake Cream Cheek in CL01 Clear Red Heart

LBCC Historical Apothecary 1745 French Powdered Rouge

Eyeshadow type stuff

Urban Decay Primer Potion

Blend Bunny Blends palette (this is my favorite rainbow palette ever! i can blend any eyebrow color or almost any weird character specific eyeshadow color from this palette)

ROM&ND Better Than Palette in Dusty Fog Garden (this is a must have if you’re light skinned and cool toned. the best nude palette. it even has a grey row useful for both contouring and for toning down too-bright colors!)

A Flortte palette that was limited edition 😭😭😭 but any of pink brown cool palette would work in its place. Think Urban Decay Naked 3 or ROM&ND Peony Nude Garden. This color scheme is currently very popular in K-Beauty and C-Beauty but not in the USA, so you’ll probably have to order online

Urban Decay Moondust in Space Cowboy that I got as a gift but you can easily get the same look and spend a lot less by buying…….

C-Beauty glitter singles. Mine were limited edition but I have literally never tried a C-Beauty glitter from Yesstyle that I didn’t like. You can’t go wrong here.

Too Cool For School Artclass Frottage Pencil (yes, seriously) in #11 Dew Beige

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk

KimChi Chic Juicy Nine Palette in Mango Tango

Flower Knows Swan Ballet Six-Color Makeup Palette in Black Swan

Eyeliners

Rozo Cat Print Liner in A13 Tea Grey

Rozo liner in black and dark brown (currently unavailable and I’m replacing with more extra fine tip Chinese liner. I love extra-fine Chinese eyeliners. You don’t need to be great at drawing eyeliner when your eyeliner is already so thin!)

Merry Monde Super Twim in 03 Earl Grey Latte

Urban Decay 24/7 pencil in Perversion

Colourpop liquid white eyeliner (not happy with the performance of this and I want to replace it with not-Colourpop due to wizard collaborations but it’s the best I have found so far 😭)

Focallure Glittering Liquid Eyeshadow in S01 Gray Lily

A pencil the color of my skin meant for my waterline but idk what it is because the lettering rubbed off nearly instantly

Mascara

Heroine Make Long & Curl Super Waterproof (or advanced film) in Black

Assorted colors of Heroine Make Mascara that I’ve only seen at physical stores that carry Asian makeup (sorry!!) (find a dark grey mascara for white or silver hair characters though, it’s so worth)

Heroine Make Mascara Remover (this works in every mascara!!! get this if you hate mascara on your lashes at the end of the day. 11/10 this is an incredible product)

I don’t currently use it but I also really like Judydoll mascara

Fake lashes

Literally whatever I bought at the beauty section in my local Asian market or off Aliexpress. I’m cheap lol. Don’t buy lashes off Amazon because if the package doesn’t look fucked up, the company sends returned lashes back out as new. Yuck yuck no thank you. Do not want this.

Lips

A second (and marked so it goes nowhere near the eyes! Don’t let the same liquid item go on your eyes and lips!) Merry Monde Super Twim in Earl Grey Latte

A cheap black lip liner. Literally get one at the dollar store or Daiso or wherever and it’ll be fine.

Dolly Cosme Lip Base (beige) (only get this if you’re already proxy ordering from Classe)

Peripera Ink Velvet in 26 Well-made Nude (I need a better nude. This one sucks on me but it’s still the closest I’ve found.)

Lilybyred Glassy Layer Fixing Tint in 12 Muscat Shower

Lilybyred Glassy Layer Fixing Tint in 06 Rosy Rose

Lilybyred Smiley Lip Blending Stick in 06 Chuckle With Me

Flortte 2 in 1 Lip Pencil in 04 Bean Paste

Clear lip gloss

Literally just whatever lip balm I have around

Setting sprays I like

Urban Decay All Nighter

Ben Nye Final Seal

Other

ASSIST FACE COVER GLUE AS!!!!!!!!! BUY THIS ASAP IT IS MY FAVORITE COSPLAY SPECIFIC ITEM even if you have to do a group order to justify Assist shipping. You roll this on your face and then lightly stick the wig to it and the wig hair will stay in place. Perfect for face framing pieces or that one bang piece that needs to stay somewhere or lace front gluing for just a day. Comes off with a makeup wipe. You need this.

Banila Co Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm won’t spill in your bag but will delete cosplay makeup

Cheap sheet mask after you take off all your cosplay will help your skin feel less angry!

If you choose to use face tape, I like Classe’s best and Assist’s next-best

Eyebrows are typically drawn on with colors from my Blend Bunny palette, with shadow and highlight strokes done with my grey and white eyeliners. I also have some character specific items that aren’t on this list (weird lipstick colors lol) and I’m not fully happy with most of my options contour and lip color, so I’m actively looking for something I might like better. I often skip colored lip product in favor of clear products because I have extremely pigmented lips.

Also if you’re wondering why my kit is almost entirely Asian makeup… it’s because I’m extremely grey, which is an undertone America does not cater to, and also I’m cheap and C and K beauty are more affordable. I wish more of this stuff were more inclusive! seriously! but this isn’t a list of products and colors for everyone, it’s a list of what specifically works for me. (Canmake Clear Red Heart though. That’s one of the most inclusive blush colors I’ve ever seen. It’s nothing but red pigment suspended in clear. Even if you think you’re too pale for red blush or you think a Japanese blush would make you look ashy, you should try it! If I could only have one blush in a kit where I were doing makeup for the entire spectrum of human skin, I’d pick that.)

I haven’t posted updates in a while but just letting you all know: I am doing GREAT. My oncologists are very happy with the results of my most recent scans (and obviously so am I!), I’m responding well to treatment, and I feel better enough post surgery that it almost feels fucked up when I can’t actually do some things yet cause lmao I had spine surgery

I’m really, really lucky.
