Well I've been playing around with Halloween costume ideas and Edward Scissorhands was probably one of the easiest to replicate PLUS there was no need for those "special effects" latex make up for his scars and everything I've used in my step-by-step is everything you can get at your nearest drug store. I am in no means a professional make up artist, just a young mom with TONS of unused make up that I have collected through the years and have lots of time to kill. I mean like LOTS of time.
NEEDED TOOLS:
Nontoxic kids glue stick
Lightest liquid foundation (any brand is fine but I personally prefer Loreal True Match)
Lightest power foundation (any brand is fine but I personally prefer Loreal True Match)
Lightest concealer
Matte brown, purple, black and white eyeshadow (if you don't have the matte color it's fine too but it will leave you a bit "shimmery")
Chapstick (not needed but it will help the purple stick to your lips)
A couple of make up brushes!!!
Are you ready? Have all the stuff on this list? Yeah? ALL RIGHT YOU'RE READY TO BECOME EDWARD SCISSORHANDS!
**** Just leaving this here but it would be awesome if you could take a few seconds and use that clicky mouse thingy and VOTE for this Instructable! Ton's of thanks to you all who did!

Signing UpStep 1First step to all make up - Wash your face
Make sure you have a clean face. You should not have any make up left on your face from the previous day.
You will need to pull out that handy dandy nontoxic glue for kids out right about now.
Glue down all your eyebrows and make sure it's nice and smooth.
You want to make sure that there are no stray eyebrows in this step!

Loving the instructable - fabulous job. I don't have any normal make-up at all, but I might dig out my face paints and try and recreate it that way, Cheers!
Do you have any door-hinges left in your house??
Would love to see this in real time on you tube...
i decided to go to a Halloweenparty as Edward - that was last week,
Now you published this JUST IN TIME :) ! AWESOME!
I would really, really like to see some normal makeup tutorials from you. You seem to have a great grasp on how to contour the face, and your ible is really well explained. ^_^ Thanks for posting!!
