Task 9 - Gemma, Connor, Julie and Cheryl

Female Freddy Krueger Costume

 

Outfit



  The costume from this URL includes the dress, hat and hand piece

 

  But as the dress is so short you may wish to wear shorts underneath it, black ripped denim shorts would be best from the URL below


 

  You will also need black boots to go with this costume


 

The costume costs £32.99, the shorts cost £20.00, the black boots cost £29.99

  So the whole outfit is £82.98

Makeup



All makeup in this list is from NYXcosmetics except two items


EBM - Eyebrow Marker - Colour Medium (http://www.nyxcosmetics.co.uk/eyes/eyebrows?product_id=83) £8.50

All the NYX cosmetics cost £66.50, the rest costs £5.24

  So the whole of the makeup comes to £71.74

Overall
