Matryoshka dolls are one of the most known symbols of Russian culture and by no means a super cute idea for a costume if you want to stand out at an event or party! In this tutorial I'll show you how you can easily transform into a big eyed russian doll with tiny lips, step by step.
CONTACT LENSES

For those big round eyes, I'm going to put in circle lenses. However, this is optional and the makeup will look dolly also without em!
SKIN
Get a good camouflage cream that is a tad bit lighter than your skin and apply under your eyes, nose, forehead and chin. This is to conceal and highlight at once! Make sure you cover all dull and dark spots. We need to get our skin matt and even.
Now get your normal day to day liquid base foundation and apply a sheer layer over your face to even out the colour and doll up your complexion!
Since this base makeup is quite thick, let it set for 3-5 minutes. Finish with light dabs of sheer powder so you don't disturb the colour and texture of the foundation.
EYES
Luckily, The eye makeup looks more elaborate than it actually is. Wet an eyeshadow brush and create a white base over your lid. For the colour white, I recommend to use a high pigmented eye shadow but if you don't have one then just apply 2 or 3 layers more,but give the layers at least 1 minute time to dry.
With a dry brush, apply copper up to your brow bone. Colour one third of your lower lid, too. Now, with the same colour but using a WET brush, mark your brow bone. Colours applied with a wet brush come out more intense. The stroke doesn't have to be perfect as long as you're following the natural shape of your brow bone.
On a dry angled brush, apply a dark chocolate colour and draw over the line on your brow bone. Make the end of the stroke end faintly by smudging it slightly.
Wet the brush once again and apply a finishing layer of copper.
EYELASHES
Matryoshka dolls have long eyelashes, emphasising their youth and femininity.
Apply dark and dramatic, or even theatrical under eye lashes. Glue them from the middle of your eye up to your brow bone.
Now we'll need long upper eyelashes with a flexible lash band, Stick them on your eye lid, close to the crease. Don't blink until the glue has completely dried!
Enlarging your eyes this dramatically will probably get your brows out of proportion, so make sure to elongate them as well!
One thing almost all Russian dolls have in common are their delicate, teeny tiny rosebud lips. Wet a small brush, choose the most intense scarlet in your makeup box, and with great care, follow your lip's silhouette. Let the brush slip at your mouths corner to create a wing so it looks like you're smiling. But if you're not in the mood, you can let the wings point downwards and be a grumpy matryoshka instead! :)
Pat the same colour you used for your lips on your cheek apples and blend until there are no clear edges to be recognised.
HAIR
If your hair is long then this style will be super simple. Just twist a braid for each side of your hair. Pull the ends up to the top of your head and fix all areas well with bobby pins.
All that's left to do now is to cover your head with a shawl and tie a ribbon! Here I'm wearing a real Russian hand painted Pavlovo shawl like a real babushka! Other patterns I recommend for the Russian doll look are POLKA DOT, LACE or a simple red scarve looks cute too! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and maybe you're ready to start your own transformation into a cute matryoshka!
