DIY scary Halloween makeup

You can do original makeup for the scariest day of the year yourself, using cosmetics or aqua makeup. Below are options that will make a girl the star of any party.

Makeup “Corpse Bride”

The image of this bright character implies the presence of an old wedding dress (preferably torn, dirty), a blue wig, a flower wreath and a veil. In addition, you need to do the appropriate Halloween makeup at home.

The sequence of actions is as follows:

1. A pale face can be achieved using various means. The first is a mixture of blue shadows with white powder, and the second is a pale blue makeup. Also, do not forget about the whole body so that the image is complete.
2. Next, outline the eyes (the area around the eyebrows and under the lower eyelid) with purple and blue. Use the same shade to highlight the line of the nose, temples, and cheekbones. This is done in order to emphasize thinness. Fill in the eyelids with white pencil to create huge eyes.
3. Outline the white area with black. Draw eyelashes along the outer side, highlighting the nostrils. Particular attention to the eyebrows. They should be thin and quite original in shape. For their clarity, eyeliner is used. Plus, you need to draw the pupils in such a way that the bride’s gaze is directed upward.
4. Apply bright pink lipstick to your lips and attach a deep blue wig.
5. The final touch is a golden wreath. The bright image of the cartoon heroine is ready.

Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad

Following the success of the movie Suicide Squad, this character is one of the most sought after characters at Halloween parties. Harley is the crazy, merciless and charismatic girlfriend of the Joker.

Makeup can be done step by step as follows:

1. Apply a light foundation to your face. Using shadows or paints, accent the eyes with pink and blue, like the character’s. Blend thoroughly, as if the paint had spread across the cheeks.
2. Apply bright red lipstick to your lips. You can add glitter on top.
3. Highlight the line of the nose, cheekbones and temples in a darker tone. Use black paint to outline your face from the forehead to the neck under the chin. At the cheeks, the line should become oblique, passing through the lower part of the cheekbones.
4. Highlight your eyebrows. Outline the lips with black, making small strokes with a brush. The same careless stripes should run along the nose, on the black line of the cheekbones, next to the eyebrows. Add white to the lower lip and upper lip.
5. All that remains is to put on a spectacular, memorable wig and choose a suitable costume.

Cat image: execution sequence

Cat makeup for Halloween is easy and won't take much time. This image is popular due to its mysticism, as well as “collaboration” with sorcerers and witches. To work, you will need a minimum of cosmetics: mascara, black pencils of different thicknesses, bright coral lipstick, light green eye shadow, blush and foundation for the face.

The process is divided into stages:

1. Having transformed the skin of the face with a tonal foundation and highlighting the cheekbones, you need to move on to the eyes. You can outline your eyes with a sharp black pencil or liquid eyeliner. You definitely need to make arrows. Apply green shadows to the upper and lower eyelids, blend the black pencil on top for greater expressiveness.
2. Apply eyelashes top and bottom. It is best to choose a lengthening mascara.
3. Using a pencil, paint over the tip of the nose and draw a line to the upper lip. Outline its outer part also in black.
4. Add mustache dots and apply lipstick or bright gloss on your lips. The makeup is ready, all that remains is to choose a beautiful outfit and attach the ears and tail.

Drawing spectacular lips

If you need to do makeup for a doll or witch for Halloween, special attention should be paid to the lips. The correct choice of tone largely determines how well the makeup will look.

Below is one option:

1. Outline your lips with a black pencil, drawing a thicker line in the corners.
2. Carefully paint your lips with bright purple lipstick.
3. Paint the middle of the upper and lower lips with a white or light pink tone. You can add a drop of transparent glitter.

Eye-catching makeup with a skull element

Skull makeup for half the face requires care and black and white makeup. It goes great with a leather jacket or a black slim dress.

Instructions for implementation:

1. Using white makeup or powder, lighten one half of the face.
2. Paint half of the nose black, outline only one eye, draw a line from the ear to the corner of the lips.
3. Completely fill in the eye, making a thicker dark base near the ear, moving towards the chin.
4. Using a brush, draw vertical stripes on the lips from shortest to longest.
5. Blend the black over your lips until you get a gray tint. Add other touches: highlight the upper line of the forehead, make streaks around the eye.
6. Apply makeup to the other half of the face as usual, using burgundy lipstick, eyeliner and dark eye shadow. To consolidate the result, you can use a makeup fixing spray.

Makeup with cobwebs

The usual option of applying cobwebs to the face with a black pencil or paints can be complemented by using red makeup.

The sequence of actions is as follows:

1. Prepare your face using foundation, powder and blush. Outline your eyes with black, highlight your eyebrows, apply a thick layer of red shadow to your eyes, after painting your eyelids with a black tint. To make the look more expressive, it is recommended to display red arrows.
2. Paint the upper part of the face with red paint, shading the edges. Outline the area around the eyes and eyebrows with a thick pencil in the shape of a pentagon.
3. Draw a straight line from the center of the forehead to the tip of the nose. Draw the remaining stripes at an angle. Do this so that the lines on top seem to be mirrored below.
4. Connect the strips with small arcs, as in the photo, to make a web. The image is ready!

Photos of witch, clown and vampire makeup

Effective makeup is the key to success at a themed party. Makeup for a witch, a werewolf, a vampire for Halloween - all this requires thoughtfulness and careful preparation. Below are photos that show successful options for eye and lip makeup. For example, thickly painted eyelashes and burgundy lips with droplets of blood, tattoos on different parts of the face, or bright lenses imitating the eyes of a reptile look impressive. You can experiment with cool colors, make your face blue and white, and decorate your lips with silver sparkles.

Skeletons

Makeup of a skeleton or the popular “Sugar Rocks” is a win-win option for the holiday. You can do it in a moderate style or go all out and make the face incredibly realistic. This option is for brave girls who prefer a frightening, spectacular look. Ideas with different execution styles can be seen in the photo.

Creepy clowns

Brightly colored clowns evoke fear and horror in many people. This Halloween makeup look will definitely be a hit. It is not necessary to make a classic circus performer with a red nose and golden curls. A clown can be glamorous, scary with bloody smudges, or mystical or gothic. You can see the different options in the images below.

Animal images

For lovers of glamor, the image of a witch's assistant - a black cat - is ideal. Here you can experiment with makeup options, come up with bright details, and add fun accessories. In addition, the version of a deer girl with thick long eyelashes and calm makeup looks interesting. Examples in photographs.

Dolls are an incredibly scary image for a party

A spectacular, but rather difficult to execute image of a doll from horror films. It is on this holiday that a dusty abandoned doll will be able to take revenge on everyone who left her alone. The main decorative element of the image is the cracks on the porcelain face, as in the photo below. The makeup of the famous doll from the sensational horror film called “Saw” looks original.

The witch is a popular image for the autumn holiday

Evil, insidious witches always cause horror, frighten with their mystical abilities and ability to control people. By choosing this look, you can give free rein to your imagination in clothing and makeup. On Halloween, it will be appropriate to look like an angry, daring witch or as a modest one, hiding her cunning under a cute girlish mask.

Other memorable images

When preparing for the scariest party of the year, you don't have to go with the standard images of cats, witches or vampires. Those around you will be delighted if a bright unicorn with a blue mane, an imp with flower horns and thickly painted eyelashes, or a garden scarecrow with a sewn-up mouth appears at the celebration. Variants of these images are presented below.

Doing your hair

Equally important is choosing a Halloween hairstyle that will complement your chosen look. If you don’t want to devote time to this issue, then you should use a headdress that matches the costume, or a wig. If you decide to do your hair yourself, then use these tips.

1. For scary images, use a comb to comb your hair, tousle it, and fix it with hairspray.
2. Using colored mascara and tint foam you can color your locks.
3. The extravagance of the image is emphasized by sparkles in the hairstyle.
4. Hairpins with skulls, spiders, and pumpkins will complement your Halloween look.
5. A headband with horns and ears is perfect to complete the costume.

Makeup

Makeup should be given special attention, as it is what gives the holiday a special charm. The image will not look complete without a transformation of appearance. What is required to make your Halloween makeup high-quality and realistic? A minimum set of cosmetics: foundation, blush, powder, mascara, lipstick, eye shadow, cosmetic pencils. For children's skin, it is better to use face painting - a special paint that does not cause harm and is easily washed off with water.

The best choice would be spooky makeup for Halloween! It will be a great pleasure for your child to transform into a scary villain.

A vampire

White face is the main element to consider when choosing a vampire makeup for Halloween. Around the eyes, to enhance the effect, you need to draw black circles with shadows. Bright red lipstick, drawn streaks of blood and inserted fangs will help complete the look.

Witch

In order for the witch to turn out nasty and evil, green paint is useful. Open parts of the face and neck are painted over completely, wrinkles and warts are drawn on with a pencil. You can add a design – a spider’s web – anywhere. Red or purple lipstick will highlight your lips.

Zombie

Gray paint will help give a dead look to the face, and bruises can be painted on with yellow, purple, and red colors. The zombie's lips have dried out a long time ago, so they are black. If you decide to get into the character very deeply, then you should additionally paint on the scars and bloody scratches.

Cat

Cat makeup for Halloween is especially popular. The face should be powdered and the cheekbones should be outlined with blush. Using eye shadow and a pencil, try to draw the cat's eyes and eyebrows. Using makeup, we draw a nose and stripes on the cat’s face. By highlighting the middle of the lower lip with bright lipstick, you can create a tongue.

Spider-Man

Boys can easily become Spider-Man by painting their faces with red paint. The areas around the eyes should be highlighted in white. There should be a web of black stripes on top of all the makeup.

Clown

The face of a clown can be either evil or good, it will depend on what kind of smile is drawn. You can choose any colors for this makeup, classic: white, red, black, blue. Use a brush to paint the clown's facial expression. Let the child dream up what it will be like.

A mask can serve as a complement to makeup or as a replacement. Craftsmen can easily make it from available materials. The most important thing is that Halloween masks are comfortable for children: they do not fly off, do not make breathing difficult, and allow them to communicate and see without interference.

To have a lot of fun at a masquerade on a magical night, use the suggested ideas for Halloween, or show your imagination and become the most creative participants in the holiday!

Any holiday or party is an occasion to try on an unusual make-up look. But if, for example, New Year's or wedding makeup still has its own unspoken rules, then Halloween makeup can be anything: eccentric, frightening or absolutely crazy. On All Hallows' Eve, we all feel a little like children - and we shouldn't suppress this feeling. Be bolder! And we will tell you how to extract maximum practical benefits from this mood. By the way, you can find some useful tips in the video below.

How to make Halloween makeup at home?

When creating complex makeup for Halloween, they often resort to the help of professional makeup. But it’s not at all necessary to buy a dozen special pigments for one image, which will then gather dust on the shelves. You can create original makeup for Halloween using regular makeup products. Read more about which ones you will need in this section.

What do you need to create makeup for Halloween? 5 means

Mascara that will help create the effect of spider legs, long-lasting blood-red lipstick to imitate bruises and a black liner that draws “dark” details - products that are sure to be found in any cosmetic bag. What else could be useful for a Halloween themed make-up?

If you only use nude eyeshadows and only allow yourself textures with shimmer on holidays, it's time to reconsider your habits. This palette of bright pink, purple and yellow shadows will not only be useful for creating a remarkable Halloween look, but it may also encourage you to experiment with makeup in your everyday life. With its help you can create, for example, fashionable eye makeup in red or pink tones. By the way, a smokey eye palette will also come in handy - what would Halloween be without black eye shadow?

You will need it if you want to create a romantic, rather than scary, look for Halloween. Why not become a forest nymph, mermaid or fairy fairy for one night? Adding a little glitter to your look is the easiest way to make your makeup festive, so don’t put the jar away: New Year is just around the corner.

We don’t get tired of singing odes to this magical make-up product – and we won’t stop until the make-up base is in every cosmetic bag. Use primers for the face and eyelids so that your Halloween makeup is frightening in its authenticity, and not in the fact that it runs an hour after the party starts.

Dashingly raised “devilish” arrows, freckles like Pippi Longstocking - all this is painted with eyeliner, which can be found in most beauty brands (take a closer look at the versions from the YSL, NYX Professional Makeup and Maybelline collections). And this product will definitely not sit idle in your makeup bag when Halloween passes. In everyday life, you can use colored eyeliner to draw fashionable bright arrows for the eyelids.

Still haven't gotten yourself a set of good makeup brushes? A Halloween party is a great excuse to do that important task that you've been putting off for a long time. Explore our detailed beauty dossier on makeup brushes to create the perfect basic set for yourself.

5 Halloween Makeup Tips

Remember these simple makeup tricks that will come in handy when creating truly scary Halloween looks.

10 Easy and Simple Halloween Makeup Ideas

Before we start discussing the really difficult – and scary! – images, we suggest looking at a selection of make-up solutions that will help you create an interesting thematic make-up without extra effort.

Paint your lips with a thick foundation that is a tone lighter than your skin. Cut out a lip-shaped shape from thick paper, place it on your cheek and outline it with a permanent pencil. Fill in the empty space with long-lasting matte lipstick. Ready!

Bright shadows with strong shimmer, applied right up to the eyebrows, plus a juicy glossy lip gloss will make you the queen of the dance floor in no time.

One of the most fashionable trends of recent years is bright freckles, which can be “worn” not only in the sunny season: this beauty trick is also useful for Halloween. Apply a little loose glitter to your face, mark freckles with a pencil (we showed how to do this here) or instead of regular dots, draw hearts, as in the picture.

Barbie is the last thing on your mind when it comes to Halloween. But why not, for the sake of variety, try on the most doll-like look of all time? Paint your lips with bright pink glossy lipstick, apply purple eye shadow to your eyes and blend it into a haze (for example, like in this video). Draw a classic arrow with black eyeliner and thickly coat your eyelashes with mascara.

Under the lower eyelids, blend shadows with a bronze tint, and use them to highlight the inner corners of the eyes. Paint your lips with brick red lipstick, add a little golden glitter to them (to create a similar lip makeup, see our photo instructions). Cover your entire face generously with shining loose glitter, and set your makeup with a setting spray.

This ironic make-up look is accessible even to those who find mascara difficult to use. Use an eyeliner to draw dotted lines, then outline them with long-lasting black eyeliner. Apply matte red lipstick to your lips. Of course, this kind of makeup looks more impressive with clear arrows, but you can do without them.

The author of this image calls for silence, but you can write your own message on the motionless eyelid. It’s okay if the inscription is not too smooth, the main thing is to design it so that it is easy to read.

The superhero costume is traditionally one of the most popular at Halloween parties. Why not experiment with makeup? This bright version of the “superhero mask” will definitely attract everyone's attention!

Another interesting option for using colored eyeliner. To draw David Bowie's signature lightning bolt on your face, use paper tape. Use it to mark the boundaries of the drawing, and then it’s up to you.

Halloween is a holiday during which you need to overcome your fears. What do girls fear most? That's right, smudged lipstick. It's time to look this fear squarely in the face!
