Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial
Hello friends! I created my Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial for an online magazine in July of 2010. I had so much fun putting this look together that I wanted to share it here too.

Here are the Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial products that I used:
Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial
Step 1
Start with a clean eye & apply eye shadow primer. I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance, but your favorite clear eyeshadow primer will work! I also recommend Concrete Minerals Glitter eye primer.
Step 2
With a small detail brush, apply Bubble Bath to the inner v.
Step 3
With a lid brush, apply Chick Flick to the lid, blending with the inner v.
Step 4
With a small detail brush, apply Bird Song to the inner crease.
Step 5
With a fiber optic pointed crease brush, apply Cuddles to the outer crease and outer v, blending with Bird Song in the inner crease.
Step 6
With a highlighter brush, apply In the Buff on the browbone. You can also do this step before you do the crease colors when trying the Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial at home.
Step 7
Brush your brows into place. Apply brow wax or pomade to your brows. Apply Dollipop with an angled brow brush. Try Sugarpill Tokyo as Dollipop has been discontinued.
Step 8
Apply Black Out Gel Liner with a pointed eyeliner brush. Start at about the middle of the lid and line the eye going inward. This is how I prevent getting too thick a line at the inner corner in this Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial.
Step 9
Apply Black Out Gel Liner with a pointed eyeliner brush. Start from the middle of the lid and work outward, extending the liner for a cat eye.
Step 10
Apply Black Out Gel Liner with a pointed eyeliner brush.
Add a second flick underneath the first, mimicking lashes.
Step 11
Apply Black Out Gel Liner with a pointed eyeliner brush. Along the lower lash line, draw a line from the outer corner to about halfway inside the lower lash line.
Step 12
Apply Sweat Pants to inner lower lash line with a smudge brush.
Step 13
Apply Urban Decay eye lash primer.
Step 14
Apply Flirt! It Curl mascara in Bombshell Black.
Step 15
Apply Yeyo to lower water line.
Step 16
Apply a pale foundation with a kabuki brush. I used Meow’s Pampered Puss foundation in Inquisitive Siamese.
Step 17
Apply Vellum under eyebrows with a detail brush.
Step 18
Apply Charm blush to cheeks with an angled fiber optic blush brush.
Step 19
Apply Pink Provacateur matte side to contour with a large fluffy eye shadow brush.
Step 20
Apply Metamorphosis finishing powder with a fiber optic face brush. Fiber optic brushes are a must with loose mineral indie makeup!
Step 21
Apply Borderline Lipliner to lips.
Step 22
Apply Lollipop-pop lip lustre.

Final Thoughts on the Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial
I love wearing circle lenses, hair falls, and putting together a fun Candy Gothic Lolita Tutorial. There are so many different flavors of goth! You have traditional, punk, perky, cyber goth, romantic, witch / strega, and more! There’s a type of goth to suit everyone’s taste, even cottagecore.
What’s your favorite flavor of gothic makeup and fashion?
wow! You look really really pretty! It really suits you with that hair! <3
This is a very cool signature look for you. It’s rockin’!!!
Thanks Kimberly!
Sofreakingamazing! OMG!
Glad you like it Wendi 🙂
OMG I think you are completely fabulous and awesome!
Aww thanks Bemistified!
Gorgeous look…so many products though. Wow! I know you always list them but it looks like so much more when you lay it out like that.
The contacts are especially gorgeous for this look.
Thanks! I did use a lot for this look, but it was fun 🙂
I love this look! It has a very cool Japanese anime feel to it. Awesome!
I’m going to try using shadow insurance as my base to see if I can get my mineral shadows to apply with more opacity. I always marvel at how you get your mineral shadows to look pigmented. When I apply them they always look sheer and don’t stay on.
Aww thanks Amy!
You can try using TFSI, or an eye shadow primer you like, plus Pixie Epoxy. You can also pat the color on, as opposed to brush the color on if you’re just using primer. If you’re using primer + PE, be sure to brush.
This look is so cute!
Thank you Kate!
Holy shit nice hair
Hah! Thanks Daniel! Hey, why weren’t you at DragonCon?
hahaha i think you might have the wrong daniel, I’m the kid who found your blog a year or so ago from the wikipedia page lol.
I think I’ve used different names because when I clear my history it goes all weird, but I also go by gottogog or irongator.
So anyway…nice hair!
No, I recognize who you are 😛 Just surprised you didn’t go. We did have several Daniels there though!
oh! In that case, cool! Yeah, I didn’t go, not really old enough to just drive off by myself atm. I’m only 17 atm. I do want to go one day. Maybe when I graduate high school I’ll take a bus down, kind of like a passing into adulthood ceremony. That would be really cool, especially since I have a bunch of friends, both online and irl who go there(I’ve always had older friends LOL).
But anyways…yeah. =)
Ahh that makes sense!
Gorgeous and cute!! 🙂 Nice tutorial !!
Thanks Stav!
