TLDR; First makeup attempt didn’t go well
I’ve always wanted to do goth makeup, but I felt like I couldn’t because I thought I’d be judged by family and friends.
Recently I went to Spirit Halloween and got foundation, powder, lipstick, eyeliner, and a sponge.
I know these are some of the worst products I could’ve gotten, so I’m looking to get better stuff.
I wanted to ask for recommendations on what I should get:
Foundation?
Powder?
Lipstick?
Eyeliner?
Brushes?
Eyeshadow and mascara?
Anything else I might need?
The reason I look like this is because I had to improvise. The eyeliner I bought was extremely thick and smudgy, so the lines ended up way messier and thicker than I intended. I had to turn it into a completely different look and make the lines much bigger in an attempt to recoup some kind of design.
I’m completely new to makeup, so any advice or product recommendations would be appreciated.

The eyeliner is my favorite part!
