If you have time to order off the web, Mehron.com sells awesome Halloween makeup. It's good quality and not super expensive.

A good place to get dark makeup, clothing etc for Halloween.

Hii, I love doing Halloween makeup! I use the creme Face Paint, from Party City, you can get a 1 oz. tube for like, $1.99- $2.99.
Also, you could really use any eyeshadow. If I had more money, I would use Ben Nye, or Kryolan. They have really good special Effects products! 

Wet n Wild always comes out with a dirt-cheap halloween collection called Fantasy Makers.... I know I saw it at ULTA and maybe Rite Aid.....

I am not sure where you are located but in NYC there is a great place called Ricky's that is almost like a Halloween store all year long.  I flippin love that place.  It's actually a beauty supply store but come this time of year they go NUTS with everything.  You can try here http://www.rickysnyc.com/

Thanks for all the great tips ladies! I will be sure to check out some of these sites! 

I watched Candee Johnson's makeup tutorial on Edward Scissorhands makeup and its perfect! Love the look and can't wait to re-create it! xo

For makeup tips, I'd recommend watching Promise Phan's youtube channel, she does great transformations. Also, Jessica Romano from 'Glam Fairy' has great Halloween makeup tips! Good luck! :)

I would try a costume store first. There aren't a good chains that I know of, if you're in Denver area I can give you some good ones.  They usually have a makeup counter with sales people who can help you out.  Even those seasonal halloween stores are good, they don't have attendents but usually have a good selection.  Sounds like a fun costume, good luck!

Your costume sounds great! Wherever you end up buying, check out these tutorials on how to apply. They are super helpful and I bet you can use the tips to knock Edward Scissorhands out of the park! Upload a picture when you're in costume I'd love to see it!
