Midari Ikishima Kakegurui

Risk and Radiance: Midari Cosplay Makeup Mastery

Hey there, lovely makeup enthusiasts! I'm Simi, your trusty makeup artist and fellow lover of all things Japanese culture. Welcome to EyeBreakfast, the ultimate destination for makeup magic! Today, I've got a special treat for you. A customer just strolled into my store with a burning desire to look like the one and only Midari Ikishima from the electrifying anime Kakegurui. So, let's dive into the world of makeup and cosplay, shall we?
Midari Ikishima - Kakegurui

Now, for those who don't know, Kakegurui is a thrilling anime series set in a prestigious academy where students engage in high-stakes gambling battles. Midari Ikishima is one of its standout characters, known for her striking appearance and intense personality. She's an excellent choice for cosplay because her makeup is bold, eye-catching, and full of character.

Tips

Now, let's delve a bit deeper into the captivating allure of Midari Ikishima's look. This daring character boasts an edgy and rebellious style that's impossible to ignore. Her eyes, framed by a blend of sultry reds and intense browns, are like windows into her unpredictable nature. The eyeshadow palette I've chosen mimics the intensity of her gaze, capturing that fierce determination that defines Midari.

But it doesn't stop there - Midari's eyes are further accentuated by a sharp and precisely drawn cat-eye (like me) created with jet-black eyeliner. It's a look that demands attention, just like Midari herself. And if you're feeling particularly bold, those false lashes we mentioned earlier will add a touch of drama to your eyes, making them the undeniable focal point of your Midari-inspired visage.

Moving down to the cheeks, Midari's flushed complexion suggests a fiery temperament. The chosen deep red blush not only adds a touch of warmth but also enhances the overall intensity of her character. Picture a confident smirk paired with those rosy cheeks - that's the Midari Ikishima charm we're aiming for.

And finally, let's not forget about the lips. Midari's lips, painted in a bold shade of red, are a statement in themselves. The lipstick I've selected perfectly captures the fiery essence of Midari's personality. It's the finishing touch that completes the look, leaving you with a powerful and striking resemblance to this unforgettable Kakegurui character.

So, as you embark on your transformation into Midari Ikishima, remember to embrace the intensity, the boldness, and the unapologetic fierceness that defines her look.

How to Apply

1.

Foundation and Concealer:

- Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply your chosen foundation evenly, ensuring a seamless blend across your skin. Use a makeup sponge or brush for a flawless finish.

- Next, grab your concealer and work its magic on any blemishes, dark circles, or imperfections. Remember, Midari's complexion is flawless, so take your time perfecting that base.

2.

Blush:

- Midari's rosy cheeks are a key part of her look. To achieve this, smile and apply the deep red blush to the apples of your cheeks using a fluffy brush. Blend it gently outward for a natural flush that radiates confidence.

3.

Eyeshadow Palette:

- Begin with a neutral, light brown shade as your base. Apply it across your lids up to the brow bone.

- Now, let's intensify those eyes. Use the dark red shade on your lids, blending it into the crease for depth. Take the dark brown and define the outer corners to add that smoldering allure.

- Blend, blend, blend! A seamless transition between shades is the key to achieving Midari's captivating gaze.

4.

Eyeliner:

- Grab your trusty black eyeliner. Midari's eyes are all about that fierce cat-eye. Start from the inner corner and work your way to a slightly extended wing. Feel free to exaggerate - the bolder, the better!

5.

Mascara:

- Apply a generous coat of black mascara to your upper and lower lashes. Midari's eyes are meant to be expressive, so don't hold back. Wiggle the wand from root to tip for maximum impact.

6.

False Lashes (Optional):

- If you're feeling a bit extra (and who wouldn't want to be when channeling Midari?), go for those false lashes. Carefully apply them as close to your natural lash line as possible, using tweezers for precision. Blend them with mascara for a seamless look.

7.

Lipstick:

- Finally, those bold, red lips. Outline your lips with a lip liner for definition, then fill in with the striking red lipstick. Midari's lips are a statement, so go ahead and flaunt them!

Now, stand back, admire your Midari Ikishima-inspired masterpiece in the mirror, and get ready to turn heads. You've just unlocked the secrets to capturing the essence of this dynamic character through makeup. Bravo, my makeup maestro!
