- Hello everybody welcome
back to Kids Cooking Crafts,
I'm Ava and today I'll be
showing you how to make
DIY mermaid hair and
accessories and makeup.
This will be great for your
Halloween costume this year.
So you're probably wondering
why my hair is wet.
Mermaids are always in the water
and water is wet so my hair is wet.
To keep my hair looking wet,
I'm gonna use some mousse
and put it in my hair.
Shake it real good, shake it shake it.
I love how it expands,
I call it Mr. Marshmallow.
It feels so weird.
So I got these fishnet tights.
This might seem a little weird
but we're gonna put it over
our head to do out makeup
'cause it will look like scales.
Don't worry we're not gonna rob a bank.
(laughing)
makeup in three, two, one.
(soft music)
You guys, now my face looks
like the scales on my shirt.
Now let's add some glitter.
I'm gonna use some green
glitter for the eyelids.
(upbeat music)
If you know me well,
you guys know that I'm terrible
at putting lipstick on.
Just go watch my candy
lipstick video after this one.
Oh then you'll know
what I'm talking about.
Now to stick some of
these pearls on my face.
Because there's pearls in the ocean
that's where pearls come from.
(soft music)
Time for some hair chalk.
I got pink, blue and purple.
Which one would you choose?
Comment down below.
Let's match my lipstick,
let's go for pink.
Now for our hair accessories.
So now you need to go to the
ocean and find a starfish
or you can just rent it at the store.
Let's cut this tag off.
There.
So what we are going to do
is attach this to a hair comb
just like that, and then
stick it in my hair.
So we're gonna use our hot glue gun
and just glue in the center.
Just like that,
and then get your hair comb,
glue it just like that.
Now you have a mermaid hair accessory.
(blowing)
Whoa guys isn't this so cool?
Okay time for the earrings.
So the pearls that we used for our head
we're gonna use as earrings.
So I'm just gonna grab the biggest pearls.
Hey I got it on straight.
My ears are actually pierced,
it's just this is a lot easier.
Comment down below if
your ears are pierced.
There.
Time for the finishing touch,
look at this amazing necklace that I got!
I actually borrowed it from my mom.
Okay just gonna,
lots of pearls going on here.
Voila.
This is actually my swim shirt.
I'm ready for my Halloween party.
Are you guys ready for some closeups?
Thank you guys so much for
helping me turn into a magical,
beautiful mermaid, and
hopefully this inspires you
to be a mermaid for Halloween.
