13 Cosplays of Halloween - L (Death Note)

Day 5! ^^ Today, we'll be returning to 'Death Note' because the character of the day is L. This one's pretty easy in both materials and makeup, a 'T shirt-and-jeans' affair if you will.

Here's L and Light!

Here's another picture of L.

Since this one involves clothes found in a closet or dresser, it's extremely easy! Here's what's needed:
  • White long-sleeved shirt
  • Black or blue pants
  • Black and white face paint
  • Temporary black hairspray
  • Paper plates
  • Foundation brush (both wide and narrow)
  • Cosmetic sponge (Optional if you don't have a foundation brush)
  • Face paint crayons (Found at Spirit or Party City)
 How to do it:
  1. Get dressed. Grab a smock or a plain shirt for the makeup.
  2. Squirt some black and white face paint onto a paper plate. Mix the paints with the tip of the foundation brush's handle until it becomes gray, then brush away! Once you're done, throw out the plate, rinse off the bristles and handle and dry it off. Like I said in the Marceline costume recipe, it's better to get the face paint in tubes than palettes because the tubes give you whatever amount needed.
  3. When the paint on you is dry, take a black face paint crayon and trace the sockets at the bottom of your eyes. You can either use black face paint with a narrow foundation brush or continue using the crayon for the bags under L's eyes.
  4. Take off the smock or shirt and you're done!
Hope you enjoyed~ <3
