Unlike most skeleton looks, this one is done with heavy contouring in (super)natural shades for a softer look. This one is a great option that can be very forgiving of mistakes rather than a black and white skeletal face option.

@erikamariemua
16. Royal Gold Skeleton
I personally am in love with this Halloween makeup idea; it’s amazing. The Goldilux pigment was mixed with adhesive glue and for extra oomph the black chromaline by MAC Cosmetics and Dark Matter and Assimilate shadows by Melt Cosmetics, as well as considerable artistic talent was used to create this look.
@erikamariemua
17. Eye Patch Reveal
This take on what is beneath a pirate eyepatch is conceptual and very cool. The look is different and guaranteed to be the talk of any party. The use of Makeup Geek cosmetics certainly played a huge part with the foil Fortune Teller shadow, Cocoa Bear and Corrupt shadows.

This is not the reindeer many expect, if they expected on during Halloween at all. The contouring is well blended and super soft, and the spots stand out just right. Even the jingle bell collar is a great touch, but the doe eyes are just the perfect amount of creepy.
@eva.lamorte
23. A True Face Peel
Sometimes it would be easier to just slap on a new face right? Horrifying to remove though it will be, the offer is still tempting. This is a great use of a single element to update a regular beautiful face of makeup as long as you are talented with latex.
@halloweenmakeupideas

@halloweenmakeupideas

October is already coming to its end, which means that soon jack-o-lanterns will maliciously laugh and stare at you with their flaming eyes, little Edward Scissorhands, Pippi Longstocking, Captain Jack Sparrow and Maleficent will get together to knock at the doors and scream “Trick or Treat’ as many times as possible only to return home with a large packet chock-full with candies afterwards.

You can also do too finding inspiration in this easy and cool Mummy Halloween makeup tutorial!
There are only a few days left until Halloween knocks at your doors and it is the exact time for you to make a final decision about your dreadful Halloween costume.

We were first obsessed with mummies when in 1999 the Hollywood film “Mummy’ came out eliciting us to go further by exploring Egyptian and Persian histories to find those horrible samples of human mummies that were not so lucky to rest in peace under the ground. There couldn’t be a more appropriate time than Halloween to put into action all your mummy investigations and resurrect to take your revenge. Converting into a mummy at Halloween is not such a difficult process to undertake only if you acquire medical bandage to wrap your whole body with and if you follow our step-by-step Mummy Halloween makeup tutorial, that apart from being horrible and terrific is depicting ultra-seductive and expressive carbon black-dusty blue eyes.
So, if you have already thrown those vampire fangs or skull bones out of your mind and have finally chosen that dreadful mummy character as your ideal Halloween costume, here is what products you should have at hand and what steps you should follow:
• Makeup primer, foundation
• Medical bandage
• Eyebrow kit
• Black gel eyeliner
• Dusty blue, brown and black eyeshadows
• Black mascara
• False eyelashes
• Muddy eyeshadow colors, like grey, purple, brown and olive
• Theatrical fake blood
• Mauve lip liner
• Makeup brushes
Step 1: First of all apply foundation on your whole face over the makeup primer to give it a smooth look and only after that use medical bandage to cover all your head without leaving any hair exposed. Wrap it in a way as to leave a couple of bandage stripes to cross your face diagonally as if you have fiercely torn the bandage while escaping from your hiding place.
Step 2: After contouring your eyebrows, apply black gel eyeliner and a liner brush to contour your lower lid and continue the process up to creating a wing on the outer corner of your eye.
Step 3: Then pass to tinting your eyelids using a dusty blue eyeshadow all over your mobile lid, giving it some frosted appearance. Afterwards blend medium brown and reddish brown eyeshadows in the crease, softly diffusing them for a natural look.
Step 4: Continue the dramatic-look-creation process by lining your upper lid as well. Then starting from the edge of the wing line, draw a new line to contour the crease of your eye, stopping at the middle of the crease, thus making wings look more realistic. Using the same black eyeliner, create a “Ra eye’ at only one eye as a reminiscence of your Egyptian roots.
Step 5: Apply black mascara to get impeccably curled eyelashes and use false lashes to give them extra volume. Make a transition from the lashes to your nose, drawing a skeleton nose on the tip of it with the same black eyeliner in order to emphasize once more that there is no blood running through your veins.
Step 6: To make your face and bandage look dirty and muddy, apply grey, dark purple, brown and olive brown eyeshadows of matte finish all over your face and bandage. Then show your bloody nature by creating some false scratches all over your face using a brush and fake blood.
Step 7: Finish your dreadful mummy makeup by coating your lips with mauve lip liner, afterwards tapping it with black eyeshadow.
Now that your mummy look is 100% guaranteed, what is left to you is acting like a real mummy, running to and fro in search for more and more victims either to restore your human form or just to take your revenge in a hyper cruel manner.

Turning into a Geisha on Halloween can be something really compelling and entertaining. But if you think that it is that much easy and straightforward, then you are completely unfamiliar with Japanese traditions, as Geisha goes beyond any kimono and maroon red lips. Of course, first thing you should do after making up your mind to become a Geisha for one day is to acquire a floral kimono with bright-colored obi and a pair of wooden shoes called okobo. Afterwards you can gather your straight dark hair together to make a bun on the top of your head fastening it with red bobby pins. Now it is high time for your Geisha makeup, which can become an easy and funny process if you follow our step-by-step Geisha makeup tutorial for Halloween to create an attractive complexion of white-red-pink combination spreading around some dangerous and sinister charm.
So, in order to appear as a Geisha wrapped with mysterious aura at the Halloween party, here is what products you should put to use and what steps you should follow:
• White face paint
• Paper glue
• Black eye pencil
• Black and pink eyeshadows
• Pink watercolor eyeshadow
• Black eyeliner
• Black mascara
• False eyelashes
• Deep wine lipstick
• Pink blush
• Makeup brushes
Step 1: First of all endeavor to completely lose the natural shade of your complexion painting your face all white creating an illusion of a mask. Start from whitening your brows by applying paper glue with three layers. Apply one layer, let it dry and then pass to the next layers. Afterwards, apply white face paint all over your face, ears and neck and do not forget to paint your nape as well, leaving one or two stripes unpainted to expose your natural skin. Just for you information, nape is the most seductive part of feminine body, according to the conservative Japanese people.
Step 2: Use a black eye pencil to outline the shape of your new eyebrows higher than your actual brows. Afterwards fill in that shape with black and pink eyeshadows thus creating an ombre effect.
Step 3: To create an illusion of eyebrow shade, apply bright pink eyeshadow to the side of your nose and blend it over the covered brow.
Step 4: Keep on adding bright pink accents on your Geisha face. Apply pink watercolor to create bold wings on your eyes and then blend some black eyeshadow with pink to give depth to the look. Sharp tips do not end in here. Use black eyeliner to create an Asian eye shape in that way turning your eye into a double-edged sharp knife.
Step 5: Coat your eyelashes with mascara pushing them up for maximum volume and length. Apply false eyelashes to add extra density to your natural lashes.
Step 6: Apply deep wine lipstick to convert your lips into two sultry floral petals, leaving the edges of your lips unpainted.
Step 7: Finish off your alluring Geisha complexion by applying a pink blush on your cheeks in a round shape.
Now that no one could doubt in your being a Geisha girl you can confidently head to the Halloween party, but to be on the safe side, arm yourself with a couple of traditional Japanese dances and music. Who knows, some Japanese men may walk around!

Catwoman Makeup Tutorial for Halloween
We will now imagine a terrifying situation, more specifically the process of your turning from a human being into an undead creature. The horrid jack-o’-lanterns with wicked smiles standing in front of your house and you yourself all alone inside have just slipped into a cotton white gown all bedraggled with dirt and blood smears and are standing in front of the mirror witnessing your own hair-rising metamorphosis. Imagining the scene is enough to make my skin crawl. The Zombie Halloween makeup with pale and gloomy vibes is effectively blending black and burgundy shades thus enhancing its carrier’s bloody and magnetic aura, while the injured and scrabbled parts on the face are provoking anyone to lend a helping hand making them entirely forget that those creatures are never dead.
So, if you have already made up your mind to become a realistic Zombie, here is what products you need to have at your disposal and what steps you should take consecutively:
• Pale foundation
• Light face illuminator
• Eyeshadows in grey, cream, black, magenta and red colors
• Black eye pencil
• Red lip pencil
• Black mascara
• Black and red lipsticks
• Theatrical blood
• Fake latex wound
• Makeup brushes and a makeup sponge
Step 1: First of all get a typical-of-Zombie pale face by applying a pale foundation all over the face. In order to add some gloomy notes to the pale complexion contour your face with a grey and cream color eyeshadow. Go further with your face contouring process applying a very light-colored face illuminator thus creating a translucent and crystalline appearance.
Step 2: When your complexion shade is fixed, seamlessly pass to the process of shaping your tempestuous and sinister eyes. To keep the glam factor, you may like to fill in your eyebrows first. Then, use a black eye pencil to contour your lower lid and the outer V of your eye. To make the black contour of your eyes even blacker and gloomier use a black eyeshadow all over it, gently blending it with a makeup brush.
Step 3: Continue the Zombie transformation process by applying a dark magenta eyeshadow over the edges of the black eyeshadow. Next blend it with a rusty red eyeshadow thus creating a black-burgundy smokey effect on your lids. Create an illusion of bloody stains under your eyes by bringing the same rusty red eyeshadow close to the nose.
Step 4: Use black eyeshadow all over your mobile eyelid to emphasize your dark and sinister look and a red pencil ” on the waterline to enhance your insatiable affection for blood.
Step 5: Apply black mascara to make your eyelashes longer and fuller for a glam appearance. Afterwards use a magenta pigment in the inner corner of the eyes.
Step 6: Normally, a Zombie has no blood flowing through his veins and just to highlight it, get a liner brush and create some small veins under the eyes with black eyeshadow indicating that there isn’t even a gram of blood running inside you.
Step 7: Go on with your Zombie makeup for Halloween, making an abrupt transition from your eyes to the lips. Coat your lips with black lipstick afterwards contouring it with black liner. Next apply a red lipstick on the center of the lips in that way creating ombre lips ideally going with your eyes.
Step 8: The most terrifying part is approaching ” a bloody festival right on your face. Bring into play fake theatrical blood in the corner of your mouth, smudging it for a realistic look. Next acquire a fake latex wound and attach it on one of your cheeks (you can get it in stores selling Halloween costumes and if you want to DIY one, follow this Halloween tutorial of ours). Smear black eyeshadow on the scratches to give depth, in the end applying fake blood on the sponge and tapping it all over the wound.
Now, please, turn off all the lights in your room, turn on any faint light and look closely at yourself in the mirror simultaneously keeping in mind that you are surrounded with those evil and malicious carved pumpkins. This is what we call adrenaline.
