Wednesday Addams Makeup Tutorial & Costume Ideas

Wednesday Addams Makeup Tutorial & Costume Ideas

Wednesday Addams began as a character in a comic book, followed by the first on-screen appearance in 1964. Since then there have been many adaptations of The Addams Family including the iconic Addams Family Values, the mediocre animated movie and the Wednesday series. Pairing The Addams Family with Tim Burton was simply meant to be and we can’t wait to see how many series’ Wednesday will get.

The first Wednesday series followed Wednesday as she headed off to boarding school after one misdemeanor too many. We met all the misfits that attended Nevermore and got to see Jenna Ortega truly becoming Wednesday Addams, alongside a star-studded Addams family cast including Catherine Zeta-Jones. What followed from this series was a trend for copying Wednesday’s outfits and trying Wednesday makeup. This took on two different styles. Firstly, those who took inspiration for their Gothic and alternative looks from this new fashion icon version of Wednesday Addams and those who created SFX makeup, often including Thing. The super fun trends that came out on TikTok and Instagram feature Wednesday’s incredible dance and Thing making an appearance.

@mulan_mtz has recreated the scene from The Addams Family Values using the audio from the film where Wednesday attempts to smile. She absolutely smashed this Wednesday Cosplay and the skeletal features and Blind Colored Contact Lenses add to the creepy effect of Wednesday smiling.

If you look closer at @mulan_mtz’s Wednesday Addams costume makeup you will see that every detail is created with body paint. From the white collar to the skeleton bones, this skillful body art is the perfect representation of Wednesday Addams as a character. 

Our final Wednesday Addams makeup is created by @fancymay_makeup featuring Thing. This super fun reel features iconic hand choreography from Wednesday and Thing. @fancymay_makeup keeps it simple with this perfect DIY Halloween costume by wearing a white collared shirt with a black top over it paired with a necklace and braided hair. Her Wednesday makeup is on point with a smoky black eye. To enhance the look of the eye makeup, she has added Black Mini Sclera Colored Contact Lenses.

If you are opting for the Halloween theme, then Addams family makeup is the perfect way to have fun with the whole family. Whether you are cosplaying as Morticia, Gomez, Wednesday, Pugsley, and Uncle Fester or are inventing your own Addams family relations, this theme can involve everyone.

Black Colored Contact Lenses are a popular choice for completing Wednesday costumes but there are so many ways you could add extra spookiness to your Addams Family characters. This unusual family deserves unusual eye colors to complement their amazing Gothic aesthetic and unique personalities.
