White base, red grin and green hairspray
-
White aqua face paint as a covering base layer over the entire face for the classic Joker skin tone

- Black aqua face paint for the dark eye makeup and the characteristic triangles under the eyes
- Green hairspray for the Joker hair in combination with a purple suit and green wig
Applying Joker makeup for Halloween or carnival
Start with a covering white layer over the entire face as a base. Then apply red face paint in a wide semicircle from corner of the mouth to corner of the mouth, extending to the cheeks for the iconic Joker grin. Add black triangles under the eyes and dark, angular eyebrows. Draw red contours along the nose and enhance the eyelids with black for depth. The Joker grin extends further than the natural corners of the mouth for the exaggerated laughing effect. Combine with a purple suit and green hairspray or wig for a complete look. Also view face paint sets to have the products together.
Combining Joker makeup with your costume
The classic Joker look calls for a purple suit or jacket, a green wig or green hairspray and white gloves. The Heath Ledger version combines the torn grin with more blurred, less perfect face paint. The Joaquin Phoenix version is subtler with less red grin and more emphasis on pale skin and red eyes.

Questions about Joker makeup
What colors do you use for a Joker face paint look?
For a Joker face paint look you use white as a full base color, red for the grin around the mouth and black for the eyes, eyebrows and triangles under the eyes. The three colors white, red and black are the core of every Joker look. Optionally you add some gray for extra shadow effect.
How do you recreate the Joker grin with face paint?
Apply red face paint with a fine brush starting from the corners of the mouth. Draw the red line further than the natural corner of the mouth out towards the cheeks in an upward curved line. Fill the space between the lip and the drawn grin with red for a wide, exaggerated laughing mouth. Enhance the edges with black for extra definition.
Is Joker makeup also suitable for children?
Joker makeup on a water base is suitable for children. Use aqua face paint without latex and test beforehand on the skin. The look is easy to make with three base colors and washes out well with water and soap.
