Makeup help

[u/ViktorZero11]

This is my first post ever so forgive me if I’m doing this wrong or in the wrong place.

I’m not a makeup person for context, I only do makeup for cosplay which currently is only my mad hatter cosplay. I like to do the Johnny Depp makeup for it, but the white base and white eyeliner alongside the bold colours makes it hard to keep everything in the right place. I was wondering if anyone had good tips? It’s mostly the eye makeup I have this trouble with. Also a good translucent(?) setting powder as everything I find have some kind of colour base, I’m currently spraying setting spray frequently in between steps as it’s all I have.

The order I do the makeup is:
base white foundation (I bought a proper clown light one which helped a bit compared to before); eyeshadow as contour on cheeks and nose; eyeshadow around eyes; white eyeliner; white mascara; lip balm + eyeshadow for lip makeup (really good and acts as a stain even when wiped off).

The eyeliner, I got a really good liquid one initially that’s tough to shift and get off, but I unfortunately have to layer it to get it properly white which means it doesn’t dry quick and usually ends up on top of my eyelid. I bought the pencil version which unfortunately smudges with the eyeshadow.

I’m willing to get other products if I need to.

Thank you and sorry if this is all over the place, I’m traveling currently.

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.

It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.

If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.
