We've got a few dramatic beauty tips for anyone who wants to go Ga Ga.
Prep your skin:
You want to start with a primer, this will give your skin a smooth finish. We recommend using
M.A.C. Prep + Prime Skin because it contains silicone, removes shine, and works great when blending your foundation. Use a liquid foundation like
Make Up For Ever HD Foundation in a color that matches your skin tone. Once you are finished applying your foundation, set it with a loose powder.
Lady Gaga Eye Makeup:

For this look, we recommend using
Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow in Black Magic because it contains both a matte white cream eye shadow and a shimmering black cream eye shadow.

Use your finger to apply the matte, white cream eye shadow in uneven amounts around the entire eye. Apply more in some areas, very little in others, and carelessly blend. Make sure that you have full coverage when working towards the lash line and the bottom rim of your eye. If necessary, go over this area with a white pencil eyeliner.

With a lip brush, add a black cream eye shadow beneath the lash line of your bottom lid (leave your lower rim and the top of your lower lash line white). Add the black cream eye shadow to the upper lid, bringing it from the inner corner of the eye up to the crease, then swoop it down and out toward the outer corner of the eye to create a cat eye shape.

Using your finger or a clean brush, blend the outer edge of the black eye shadow with the white layer beneath it, sweeping back and forth gently so that it lightens the intensity of the black color.

For an intense, long-lasting black color, set the cream shadow by patting a black eye shadow powder (try
M.A.C. Shadow Pigment in Dark Soul) on top of it. This should follow the same shape that you made with black cream shadow in step #2, but it should be about 1/4 of an inch smaller, leaving the blended black-white portions un-touched.

Use a Q-tip to swipe a wedge-shape out of the outer corner of the eye shadow you have applied. You can leave this wedge skin-tone or fill it in with more of the white eye shadow, depending on how much white you have in the surrounding area.
Finish by sprinkling a little bit of loose glitter over closed eyes. It doesn't matter if you have fallout on the face or body since you will be adding more glitter to these areas later.
Lady Gaga Lips:

Wear a coral-tinted lip stain and cover it with your favorite sheer lip gloss.
Highlight Your Skin:

Pinch a sponge applicator so that it's crinkled and condensed. Keep your sponge applicator crinkled and dab it in a white cream eye shadow or in
M.A.C. Pro Studio Fix in Shivering White. Un-pinch the sponge and let it expand back to its regular size. Apply this to your face by placing it in random areas, leaving some gaps of bare skin. Apply more if necessary to build spots of textured, uneven white. Add more texture by dabbing the cream with the bristles of a stiff makeup brush.

Sprinkle loose glitter on random patches of skin. Let it naturally fall and disperse. If you want a little more staying power, spray a light veil of hairspray over the glitter to keep it in place.

Things You'll Need
Putting together your Neytiri Avatar Na'vi costume and makeup
Step 1: Pick up a pair of elf ears. Paint them with a coat of blue acrylic paint that will match your makeup scheme. When they're dry, apply a lighter shade of blue (could be the same blue mixed with white) in "stripes" across the ear in a zebra-like pattern.Step 2: Allow the ears to dry since you will be applying them near the front of your temples/forehead with spirit gum or appliance putty. Wash and dry your face thoroughly so the ears stick. Use the photo of one of the Na'vi to get an idea of where they will sit on your head and then glue 'em on!
Step 3: Wash your hands and put in a pair of yellow contacts. You can purchase these online or at specialty stores. If you're not a wearer of contacts, have a friend help you put them in... Just wash your hands first! Any dust, stray hairs or debris on those babies will make your eyes water and makeup run later on.
Step 4: This step is completely optional depending on how hardcore you want to take your makeup. The Na'vi don't have eyebrows. While you could just paint your makeup on over them, if you don't have prosthetic appliances to cover them, a neat trick is to take a giant glue stick (or the spirit gum) and go over your eyebrows with it, rubbing the stick in the opposite direction of eyebrow growth. Let it dry and then do it one or two more times (depending on how thick your brows are). With your brows flat against your skin with a layer of "glue skin" over them, you can have a nice, flat surface to apply the makeup with, without worrying about any facial hair peeking through.
Step 5: Apply blue cream makeup in thin layers to your face, neck and chest. You can also blend some of the makeup up and around your Elf Ears on your forehead/temples, so long as they're dry to get a smoother look. If you feel like you need more "blue" coverage, apply another thin layer. It stays on better to do it in stages and doesn't look like you just glopped it on.
Step 6: Mix together some white cream makeup with the blue to create a lighter shade. Use one of your paint brushes or makeup brushes to apply it in thin stripes, concentrated mostly at the temples of your face, then drawing it outward in thin stripes.
Step 7: To give the broad, alien/cat like nose that the Na'vi have, take the lighter shade of blue and paint directly down in a straight line from the inner corner of your eye to outer edge of your nose. Blend it with the brush. Repeat on your other eye/nose area. Then, take the light blue mixture and paint a stripe down the center of your nose, blending a bit for a "highlighted" effect.
Step 9: Take a skinny paintbrush or makeup brush and dip it in the plain white cream makeup. Dot it along your forehead and cheeks below your eyes to create the "freckles" the Na'vi sport.
Step 10: Wait for your makeup to dry. Put on a braided wig with or without beads... OR, if you really want to go nuts, get your own long brown wig and braid it with your own beads and feathers for a customized touch. However, a Beaded wig can do the trick just as well. Be careful that you don't hit your ears with it and knock them off! (As a test-run beforehand, try on the wig and see where you want your ears to be so they're very visible and not hidden by the wig.)
Step 11: Put on a blue bodysuit, or, if you can't find one, go to a dance store or outlet store and pick up a nude colored bodysuit and dye it with RIT dye. You can pick up RIT dye at a fabric store, or sometimes a drug store. Follow the directions on the packet to dye your white or nude colored bodysuit blue. You can add a striped/tyedye effect once your suit is dry and then go for a SECOND round of RIT dye after you tie the sleeves, legs, and body part with rubber bands. The dye won't take on the banded areas and you get instant stripe-effects on the body like the Na'vi have.
Step 12: Put on a brown bikini or any outfit you want to dress like the Na'vi of your choice. Decorate your arms with faux leather bands or strips of braided brown fabric. Dangle beads and/or feathers from them for effect.
