Default Scary Doll Costume

This year I am going to dress as a porcelain doll. I found the perfect dress at the Good Will. It is ivory colored with a lace collar and puffy sleeves. It looks just like a dress on one of my mom's dolls. I'm going to put a maroon velvet sash around the waist, get a black wig with lots of curls and put a bow in it and have black mary jane shoes, tights and white gloves.

Now this is my problem, I'm not the master of make up and some of you guys do the most awesome make up jobs. I want my face to look like an old porcelain doll with cracked paint. (You know when it looks like crackle paint?) I figured I would put on fake eyelashes and make my lips red and pink cheeks. I just need advice on how to get that crackle paint look and some suggestions on what kind of make up to use.

Any advice would be great! Thanks
