To create a real ghost make up it is not enough just to slap on some white face paint and saying Boo! Look through a few make up techniques to look really scary.

It is not recommended to use rouge in creating this look.  Even if you're a ghost bride, you shouldn't be blushing at all. If you want to achieve a harsher look take a matte gray shadow and swipe it under your cheekbones, on the sides of your nose, around your jaw line and near your hairline. This technique is nearly the same as when applying bronzer but in this case you are cooling your face off to look ghostly.

Eyes
As you know ghosts stay up all night walking the halls and rattling chains, and never use facial and eye cream,so they will definitey have dark circles under their eyes. That's why for your eye make up use two shades of gray,  a navy blue and gray or gray and black as you wish.

Don't try to achieve precise application. Take an eye shadow brush and   put the darker color under your eye in the inner corner. Then blend that out and down. Apply the ligther color on the outer corner and blend in and down so that it could meet the dark color.

If you want to make your eyes bigger apply a black liner along the upper an lower lash line. If you don't tend to be a sexy ghost with cat eye liner try to thicken the line in the middle of the lid so that your eyes could appear more rounded. 

Lips
Black, blue, deep burgundy and the like are the colors which can suit perfectly for this look. However you can also use a nude lip color and then tone it down and cool it off further with a blue-tinged gloss or lipstick on top. But if you want to make your lips really invisible, apply a very light concealer.

To achieve the effect of cracked lips apply a concealer with a dry consistency or use a matte lipstick in a nude shade. If you don't apply chapstick or exfoliate your lips before that they will look dry an chapped without any other special effects and skills.

A Few Additional Recommendations
Here are a few extra tools which can make you look more creepy:
* Contacts with special effects

* A shroud of some kind (you could make your own).

* A pale silver wig which can complement the rest of your gray and white look.
