Steps

1. Apply a foundation a few shades lighter than your skin tone. Your skin should be almost white, but without looking fake.
2. Apply a lavender eyeshadow under your eyes for under-eye bruise.
3. Put on gold contacts if you are a "vegetarian" vampire. If you do not want to be vegetarian, put on burgundy contacts. This step is optional.
4. Use the lavender eyeshadow on your lids.
5. Wear blood red lipstick for a dramatic effect. For a simpler alternative, wear clear lip gloss or nude lipstick.
6. Know that darker clothing colors are preferred. Wear something simple, like a dark t-shirt or tank top and jeans. Or, you could go the Edward Cullen route and wear a cashmere sweater, jeans and nice shoes.
7. Dress more classic, as vampires have been around for a long time and seen trends come and go.
8. Don't go the fang route, as the Cullens do not have them (This is mentioned in Eclipse.)
9. Remember, Prom was the first time Bella saw Edward in black.

Tips

• To make your hair like a vampire:middle part that is a bit ruffled is perfect. For women, romantic waves or stick straight hair is perfect.
• If you want, use the foundation to apply to parts of your skin, such as your neck. You can also use baby powder.
• Wear lighter colors. It will mean you are less inconspicuous, as it means you pale skin tone will not clash as much with your clothes.
• If you are going as a non-vegetarian vampire, have a person who will be a victim, or someone changing into a vampire (half-vampire, half-human).
• If going out in the sun, wear long sleeves or pants, and be sure to apply shimmer make up to any skin showing.
• Black, silver, red and purple are commonly accepted as traditonal Vampiric attire, but Twilight vampires tend to stick to lighter tones in clothing, and wear plain (yet expensive) garments.
• Research your history and be honest.
• As any good artist knows, when you wear dark colors that makes your skin look lighter when you wear light colors it makes your skin look darker. Dont wear white and still expect to look super pale unless you really DO look super pale
• Make sure your skin is clear. Acne does NOT befit a vampire.

Warnings

• Do not wear fangs unless they are fake.
• Do not attempt to bite anyone, or else you will probably end up in a padded cell for life.
