The first tier is a DIY job, and the last two are where a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/services\/makeup\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">local makeup artist<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> earns the booking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown makeup is the rare look that works at a Halloween party, a festival, a circus-themed birthday and a very committed brunch, so people search for it all year and not only in October. Most clown galleries show one face and hope for the best, so every look below comes with what to change for lighter, medium and deeper skin tones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The base, color and coverage tips here come from makeup artists who take bookings on Blys. Nothing in this post is skin or health advice, so follow the instructions on your face paint, and ask your artist if you&#8217;re not sure about a product.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cute Clown Makeup and Easy Clown Makeup: The DIY Tier<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cute clown makeup and easy clown makeup are the friendly end of the scale: bright, small and hard to get badly wrong. Here&#8217;s the simple clown makeup routine, in order:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with a clean, moisturized face and a light base.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add a red or coral nose, either a full dot or a soft blush on the tip.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Draw one or two shapes on the cheeks, such as hearts, stars or little dots.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run a colored liner above the eye, either rainbow or a single bright shade.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finish with a bright lip and a few freckles for good measure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Easy_Clown_Makeup_The_Starter_Look\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy Clown Makeup: The Starter Look<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy clown makeup is a red nose, two bright cheek circles and a colored liner flick, and it&#8217;s the look to try if you&#8217;ve never painted your face before. The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/blog\/how-to-make-makeup-last-all-day\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all-day makeup routine<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> works as the prep under the paint, and it&#8217;s worth doing first. A red nose does a lot of heavy lifting, so save your effort for the eyes and the cheeks, and blend the cheek circles until the edges melt a little.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Simple_Clown_Makeup_Without_the_White_Base\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simple Clown Makeup Without the White Base<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simple clown makeup skips the full white face and works with your natural skin tone, adding color in small, clean shapes. Fewer shapes in sharper colors always look better than many shapes in muddy ones, so pick two or three and give them room.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cute_Clown_Makeup_Ideas_to_Copy\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cute Clown Makeup Ideas to Copy<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few cute clown makeup ideas that photograph well: a tiny heart under one eye, pastel rainbow liner, freckles that stretch into little stars, polka dots along the cheekbone and a single bow at the corner of the eye. Hearts on the cheeks are easier than flirting, and they work on every skin tone, with the color adjusted as described further down.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pretty_Clown_Makeup_The_Glam_Tier\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pretty Clown Makeup: The Glam Tier<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pretty clown makeup is clown makeup that went to art school: graphic liner, jewels, glitter and color blocking, with a base that lets the shapes stand out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pretty_Clown_Makeup_With_Graphic_Liner\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pretty Clown Makeup With Graphic Liner<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A bold graphic line over the eyelid, often in a bright shade like pink, blue or yellow, is the signature of the pretty tier. It needs a steady hand and a clean base, and it&#8217;s the part that goes wrong first in a mirror, since one wobbly line on one eye means doing the other one to match.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jewels_Glitter_and_Color_Blocking\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jewels, Glitter and Color Blocking<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Color blocking means filling a shape on the face with one flat shade, and it works best with clear edges and a lot of pigment. Add a few face jewels or fine glitter along the brow and the cheekbone, then stop, because a pretty clown who adds one more thing every ten minutes ends up looking like a disco ball.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hair_and_Makeup_Together\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hair and Makeup Together<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pretty clown look usually wants hair to match, whether that&#8217;s colorful braids, a high pigtail or a slicked-back bun, and a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/services\/hair-and-makeup\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hair and makeup<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> booking sorts both in the same visit.

The brief for this tier is creepy and not gory: a pale base, dark eyes and a face that looks a little too still.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Scary_Clown_Makeup_Where_the_Creepy_Comes_From\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scary Clown Makeup: Where the Creepy Comes From<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creepy comes from small details: eyes ringed in black and smudged, a smile that stretches past the lip line on one side, colors that look faded and not fresh, and brows tilted slightly too far. A cracked white base around the mouth and eyes adds age without a drop of anything red.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Halloween_Clown_Makeup_Without_the_Gore\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Halloween Clown Makeup Without the Gore<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Halloween clown makeup works best when the look does the scaring and the costume stays simple, such as a ruffled collar, a faded stripe or a wilted bow. If bones are more your style than bozos,<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/blog\/how-long-does-skeleton-makeup-take\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the skeleton makeup look<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> uses the same white-and-black contrast in a very different way, and if you&#8217;re leaning toward fangs, there&#8217;s a vampire look in the same hub.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_the_White_Base_Is_the_Hard_Part\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why the White Base Is the Hard Part<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A full white base is where most DIY scary clown looks fall over: patchy streaks, a hard line at the jaw and a neck that doesn&#8217;t match the face. It&#8217;s also the part that depends most on coverage and blending, so it&#8217;s the first thing to hand to a makeup artist who works with it regularly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clown_Makeup_for_Every_Skin_Tone\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown Makeup for Every Skin Tone<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most clown galleries show one face, but the same look changes with the base, the color and the coverage you need on different skin tones.<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lighter skin tones<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medium and olive tones<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deeper skin tones<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cute and simple<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pastels and soft pinks read clearly, so keep cheek color light<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Warm corals, bright reds and turquoise stand out well<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bold, saturated shades such as yellow, hot pink and electric blue show best<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pretty and glam<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sheer white or pastel base works, and jewels add sparkle<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cream-white or tinted base keeps graphic liner crisp<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Color-blocked or metallic bases look striking, and a full white base needs opaque coverage<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scary<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pale base with smudged black eyes looks creepy fast<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A touch of grey in the white can soften a chalky look<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opaque white, layered if needed, with black and a muted red smile<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lighter_Skin_Tones\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lighter Skin Tones<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On lighter skin tones, a pure white base can look flat, like paper, so a slightly warm white or a thin, blended layer often looks better. Bright reds and blues stand out strongly here, so go lightly with the cheek circles and let the eyes lead.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Medium_and_Olive_Skin_Tones\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medium and Olive Skin Tones<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On medium and olive skin tones, a white base can pick up a grey or greenish cast if it&#8217;s thin, so even coverage beats a thick layer. Warm corals, reds and turquoise often look vivid, and pastels may need a second pass to show up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deeper_Skin_Tones\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deeper Skin Tones<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On deeper skin tones, streaky white shows up quickly, so full coverage and an even hand matter, and many artists build the white in thin, opaque layers instead of one thick coat. Saturated shades such as yellow, hot pink and electric blue look striking, and a colored or metallic base can be a bold alternative to full white. Pastels usually need stronger application to read clearly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Undertones_and_the_Neck_Question\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Undertones and the Neck Question<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever your skin tone, check the face against the neck and ears in daylight before you leave, since the edge at the jaw is where a mismatch shows. Blend down to the collarbone if you can, and extend the base to the ears and hairline so there&#8217;s no pale mask floating in the mirror.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clown_Makeup_Men_Beards_Stubble_and_Bold_Faces\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown Makeup Men: Beards, Stubble and Bold Faces<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown makeup men can wear most of the looks above, and facial hair changes how you build them more than anything else.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clown_Makeup_Men_With_a_Beard\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown Makeup Men With a Beard<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a full beard, work around it: paint the forehead, eyes and cheekbones, keep the beard natural or lightly colored and avoid white paint on the whiskers, where it clumps and flakes. A red nose, strong brows and a bold eye do most of the work, and the beard becomes part of the character, whether it&#8217;s a grumpy clown or a very friendly one. If fangs sound more fun, the<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/blog\/vampire-makeup\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vampire makeup look for men<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> works with stubble, shadows and a very pale neck.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clean-Shaven_and_Stubble_Looks\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean-Shaven and Stubble Looks<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On a clean-shaven face, a full white base and a painted smile give the classic result, and a little stubble can add a creepy edge for a scary look when it shows through the paint. Keep the stubble short and let it peek out at the jaw, and use a lighter hand with the white there so it doesn&#8217;t look patchy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mens_Clown_Looks_Without_a_Full_White_Base\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Men&#8217;s Clown Looks Without a Full White Base<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not everyone wants a full white face, and the half-face, the sad clown with one tear and the red-nose-and-stripes look all work without one. Color-blocking one side of the face, or painting only the eyes and the mouth, is a quick way to get a strong look with less paint to blend.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keeping_Clown_Makeup_Fresh\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping Clown Makeup Fresh<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clown makeup gets a lot of use at parties and festivals, so it helps to plan for the parts that move, such as the white around the mouth, plus the liner and the nose.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blend_Set_and_Check\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blend, Set and Check<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blend the edges before you set anything, then follow the pack for how to set your paint, since different paints behave differently. Check your face in the mirror once the paint has dried, and fix any streaks before you head out. If the look has to last a long festival day, a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/services\/makeup\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">local makeup artist<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can set it properly and leave you a touch-up plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Small_Touch-Up_Kit\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Small Touch-Up Kit<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A small kit with a cotton bud, a spare sponge and the colors you used helps with quick fixes, and a mirror in your bag beats guessing. Touch up away from the crowd, and keep the red for last, since it&#8217;s the shade that smudges most visibly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Removing_Clown_Makeup\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing Clown Makeup<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing clown makeup is a slow job, and rushing it only spreads color around.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Follow_the_Pack\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow the Pack<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use the remover or method recommended on your face paint, since different paints come off differently, and if you&#8217;re not sure, ask the artist who did your look. Work in small sections and take your time, because a slow, patient wipe beats a fast scrub and keeps the color from smearing into the next section.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Take_the_Color_Off_in_Stages\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take the Color Off in Stages<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with the biggest areas, such as the white base, then move on to the liner and the lips, wiping with a clean cloth each time instead of reusing a dirty one. A bright red or blue can leave a faint tint for a while, so don&#8217;t panic if there&#8217;s a pink shadow in the mirror.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_to_Hand_It_to_a_Makeup_Artist\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When to Hand It to a Makeup Artist<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cute and simple looks are a fine DIY job, and the full white base, the glam and the scary versions are where an artist makes the biggest difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_White_Base_Glam_and_Scary_Looks\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full White Base, Glam and Scary Looks<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These looks have the most to blend and the most that can go wrong, from streaky coverage to a hard jaw line, so they&#8217;re worth handing to someone who does it regularly. An artist builds the base evenly, picks the right shades for your skin tone and finishes the details, and<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/getblys.com\/us\/blog\/how-much-does-a-mobile-makeup-artist-cost\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mobile makeup artist costs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are easy to check before you decide.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_a_Local_Makeup_Artist_Booked_Through_Blys_Brings\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What a Local Makeup Artist Booked Through Blys Brings<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Local makeup artists on Blys work with every skin tone and bring professional, cosmetic-grade kits to your home or event, so there&#8217;s no need to squeeze into a booked-out studio in Halloween week. Blys is a booking platform: you pick the service, a local artist accepts the booking, and bookings run from 6 am to midnight, seven days a week. The artists are independent business owners who run their own work.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Put_in_the_Booking_Notes\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What to Put in the Booking Notes<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Say in the booking notes that it&#8217;s a Halloween clown look, and say whether it&#8217;s cute, pretty or scary, so the makeup artist brings the right base shades and cosmetic-grade face paint. Add your skin tone, any facial hair, the look you&#8217;ve seen and want to match, and the time the event starts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Booking_Clown_Makeup_Through_Blys\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Booking Clown Makeup Through Blys<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cute and simple looks are yours to do at home, and the full white base, the glam and the scary looks are the ones to book if you want the edges to blend all night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;ve picked your tier, send Blys the details: the look and the time, plus the address and the notes about your skin tone, so the artist turns up with the right shades.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/app.getblys.com\/new-booking\/?utm_source=website-blog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=clown-makeup-ideas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arrange Your Clown Makeup at Home \u2192<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These questions come up when the party is a few days away.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_far_ahead_should_I_book_clown_makeup\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How far ahead should I book clown makeup?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Same-day bookings are possible subject to availability, though earlier is easier, especially in Halloween week. Setting a time a few days ahead also gives you room to add the notes about your look and your skin tone, and it means you aren&#8217;t hunting for a free slot on the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_makeup_artist_come_to_a_festival_or_party\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can a makeup artist come to a festival or party?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, a local makeup artist can come to your home or your event, so you can have the look done where you&#8217;re getting ready.

They also take less paint to blend, which makes them a good middle ground between simple and scary.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_wear_glasses_with_clown_makeup\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can I wear glasses with clown makeup?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, and a bold frame can become part of the look. Paint around the frames and the nose pads and keep heavy liner away from the lenses, so nothing smudges against the glass. If you wear glasses all night, mention it in the booking notes so the artist can plan the eye shapes around the frames.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; bg_color=&#8221;#faf1eb&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;3%&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;3%&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_Your_Clown_Makeup_Done_at_Home_or_at_the_Party\"><\/span>Get Your Clown Makeup Done at Home or at the Party<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=&#8221;jumbo&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;regular&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Accent-Color&#8221; icon_family=&#8221;none&#8221; text=&#8221;Book Now&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/app.getblys.com\/new-booking\/?utm_source=website-blog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=clown-makeup-ideas&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text] Clown makeup ideas fall into three tiers: cute and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1920,"featured_media":94851,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"Clown Makeup Ideas for Every Skin Tone: Cute to Scary | Blys","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Clown makeup ideas in three tiers, with tips for every skin tone: cute and easy to DIY, pretty and glam, and scary.
