What I did:

(Feel free to use whichever products you have)

Firstly I did my base makeup as normal so I primed my face with the nivea men's post shave balm and then mixed the kat von d and revlon foundations together which I then applied with a real techniques buffing brush. I filled in my brows with the nyx brow pommade, I then took the collection concealer to carve out my brows and conceal under my eyes. I powdered my entire face and then took the shade danger from the soph x makeup revolution palette which is a bright blood red and applied this to the inner 2/3 of my eyelid using a flat brush. From this I took the soap and glory liner and began to outline the clown design, starting from the inner part of my eye extending to above my brows and into a point, from this I drew back down to the eye to create a triangle. I then did a normal cat eye liner but extended this towards my hair line and joined with the line I made before coming from my brow. I then drew the outline of elongated triangles from the inner, middle and outer parts of my lower lash line  (I didn't fill them in) and recreated this on the other eye. I filled all of these in with the shade nightmare from the soph x pallete which is a standard black, I used the spectrum A15 brush for this and used the real techniques domed shadow brush to blend this black through my crease and on my lower lash line. 

I then used the liner to create a circle on my nose which I filled in with the same black eyeshadow. I used the makeup revolution liquid lipstick in glory (a very dark brown) as a base and topped this with that black eyeshadow. I used the black eyeshadow and soap & glory liner to extend my smile and blend it out. For final touches I put black circles using eyeliner under the middle line from my eye, top and bottom and applied my fake lashes - eyelure style exaggerate no 141. I then used the spectrum A07 brush to put fake blood under my eyes and put the blood on a mottled white sponge which I dabbed along my extended my smile. 

For the collar: 

Using a reference photo, I outlined the shape using the elf brow pencil in brown- it finished just above my boobs and went along my jaw line from ear to ear. I filled the white in with some cheap white face paint from Wiko's and set it with a white powder from elf- using a flat shader brush from isabella Scott cosmetics for the paint and the real techniques contour brush for the powder. I filled the rest in with black face paint from Poundland using the spectrum A13 brush for the paint & BH cosmetics 130 brush to set - I set this with the black eyeshadow from before. I outlined all of this with black eyeliner and that was it! 

I left my hair wavy and put on a black dress with a netted skirt which I got from New Look a while ago- as this is a black & white clown, any black or white dress would do. I have included photos below as a reference- what I have said will make much more sense by seeing them. 

This is the dress I wore:
