Variant: Lab coat
Date: 2016
Made For: DragonCon 2016
Status: Active
Also Worn: Halloween 2017, DragonCon 2018

Updates: I’ve collected some screen-accurate items, so this will be a nice comfy costume to wear.

About the Costume: This one was pretty simple. I already had a lab coat (duh, scientist), and sourced some great alt pieces to work. Dark heather grey tee, maroon hoodie, and I ended up pairing it with skinny jeans and heeled combat-style boots. The wig was the palest white blonde wig I could find. Sadly, it was curly af, so I had to steam it to get it kind of straight. I also left some pieces wavy because Liv’s hair is pretty janky in the show. The makeup consists of a few layers. First, moisturize and prime, fam. The foundation is applied to the face, ears, neck, and chest. I use  Manic Panic Dreamtone, with a layer of Manic Panic Virgin powder to set it. I created contour using light grey eyeshadow as “blush” and various greys and reds around the eyes to create that dead look. The lips have a light foundation layer with a more nude eyeshadow to set it as well.

Blargh…
