Aerith Gainsborough - Final Fantasy VII - Makeup Tutorial

Aerith has always been on my cosplay list, but I wasn't sure that I'd be able to suit her! Her minimal, natural makeup was something I really wanted to get just right to help me get into character. I got to test this look all day at Katsucon 2017 and was super pleased with how it photographed and lasted! Overall, this makeup really helped tie my costume together and was quite easy, quick, and comfortable to wear!
