Can you give me some gothic Makeup tips?
Before I start, I just want to say I don’t smear black all over my eyes. That looks trashy, not gothic.
Anyway, I like to do my makeup very vintage and pinup, but still keep it gothic. Can you give me some more tips, please?
Hahaha! I LOVE Dita Von Teese. I get a lot of tips from her.
First things first- liquid eyeliner is your friend. Actually, if you like pinup style makeup, you probably know that already 
But it’s still true.
I’d suggest trying a slightly darker, plummy kind of red on your lips as opposed to the bright red Dita von Teese tends to use or the black people expect goth girls to wear. It looks a little bit classy and works as part of a goth look as well as other styles.
You could also try the traditional smoky eye but with purple or dark green. Purple is nicer than black, and it’s a lot more unusual. Try other dark colours, see what you like.
And not dark eyes and dark lips at the same time 
Taking my makeup tips from Dita again, haha.
Something else that might work with a gothic look could be a pale nude lip colour- you know that really 60s look where you need to put foundation/Concealer over your lips to make them pale? Try it out, see how it looks.
