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:

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.
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.
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.
Apply bright pink lipstick to your lips and attach a deep blue wig.
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:

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.
Apply bright red lipstick to your lips. You can add glitter on top.
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.
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.
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:

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.
Apply eyelashes top and bottom. It is best to choose a lengthening mascara.
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.
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:

Outline your lips with a black pencil, drawing a thicker line in the corners.
Carefully paint your lips with bright purple lipstick.
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:

Using white makeup or powder, lighten one half of the face.
Paint half of the nose black, outline only one eye, draw a line from the ear to the corner of the lips.
Completely fill in the eye, making a thicker dark base near the ear, moving towards the chin.
Using a brush, draw vertical stripes on the lips from shortest to longest.
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.
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:

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.
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.
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.
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.

Video of beautiful Halloween makeup

Video makeup for Halloween is the easiest way to create a spectacular look with minimal time investment. You can see how to make a frightening original makeup for the holiday from the video “Lightning on the Face”:

Another option is to transform into a zombie. The nuances of performing simple makeup are given in the video “Zombies for Halloween”:

For the holiday, it is important to think through every detail of the chosen image. Properly selected clothes, shoes, hairstyle, manicure and makeup will help you stand out from the crowd and add an intimidating and incredibly impressive atmosphere to the celebration. The main thing is not to be afraid to experiment and show interest in the chosen character.

Anastasia Skorekova Halloween 10/1/2015

Welcome to everyone on the blog today! We will discuss a non-trivial topic, but relevant in these autumn days - makeup for Halloween. It can be done in a variety of ways, presenting a variety of images at the holiday.

Not everyone celebrates this holiday, but many people like to stand out from the crowd. And what else can contribute to this if not competent makeup?) Although in this case it’s more like makeup.

I have already briefly mentioned one of the options for a terrible make-up. It's time to continue the topic

DIY Halloween makeup photos for girls and girls

Although makeup is predominantly a female activity, masquerade erases all boundaries, so let’s not forget about men either. However, first we will still consider options for the weaker half of humanity.

Doll

The makeup here should not be so much bright as it should be emphasizing the doll’s elements: various kinds of seams, buttons, plump lips, etc.

The most important thing is to highlight the eyes. They must be big and naive. Eyebrows are also worth drawing.

As you understand, it will be difficult for guys to use this particular type. But if you don’t put pressure on your painted lips, then everything will be ok. Although I doubt that guys will want to appear as a scary Ken for Halloween.

It seems to me that the simplest option is this step-by-step master class. You will need: a white base (you can use foundation), PVA glue, paper napkins, eye shadow in bright colors, lipstick, dark eye and eyebrow pencil.

Using PVA, carefully apply paper napkins as shown in the photo.
Apply foundation (you can also powder it)
Next we use shadows and pencil. The most important thing is to outline as large an area as possible, simulating the eye line (to enhance the effect, you can fill the area under the eyes with white shadows).
Fill your eyebrows, paint your lips.

If the idea of a doll’s image haunts you, and this step-by-step explanation seems too simple to you, then I advise you to watch a tutorial on doll makeup in video format:

Cat

This look is classic, very pretty and not as scary as many traditional Halloween ideas. For it you will need face painting or simple gouache. You can also use regular cosmetics like black eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara - that will be enough.

The most important thing is to stock up on ears that suit you and a choker that will complement your Halloween look. By the way, in this form you will be able to play the famous catwoman. All that remains is to get the suit.

The second option is even simpler.

In order to make makeup the most interesting, I advise you to watch this master class:

Witch

Everything is very simple here, you don’t even need napkins with glue. Prepare: black and red pencils for eyes and lips, white or very light makeup base and red lipstick.

To create the effect of a transition of colors on the lips: apply red lipstick, and in the corners of the lips - a black pencil and blend.

By the way, with this makeup you can also create the image of the cat mentioned earlier.

Sugar Skull

I already wrote about the male version of the skeleton in a previous article about Halloween costumes. And now it’s time for the female version called “sugar skull.” This unusual makeup came to us from a holiday related to Halloween - the Day of the Dead, celebrated in Mexico (by the way, it takes place on November 1-2, that is, almost on the eve of All Saints' Day).

For this, it is better to use not only regular make-up products, but also masquerade face paints (can be purchased at office supply stores). By the way, in its simplest variation, this makeup can be done as a child’s makeup.

A dead bride

What is meant, of course, is not a living bride, but a corpse bride (as can be understood from the name). The highlight of the makeup is in the black lines near the eyes, imitating deep depressions, and in the black spot on the lips, applied with a pencil.

The application principle is similar to the previous options.

Do you remember Emily from the cartoon “Corpse Bride” from Tim Burton? Makeup with it is easy to recreate if you watch this master class from YouTube:

Demon (she-devil)

The shadows here extend beyond the eyebrows. After applying them, create sparkles of fire using black and red eyeliners.

Pay attention to the interesting way of coloring the Demon’s cheekbones: holding a scarf, paint the line of the cheekbones with red shadows or blush.

The lips are painted in a similar way to the witch. The result is a bright fiery devilish makeup, which is quite easy to repeat yourself.

Even cooler (and even somewhat simpler, except for the horns) was the festive makeup done here:

Zombie

The main focus of zombie makeup, in my opinion, is the characteristic spots and scars. You can make them like this: apply PVA glue, as in the photo. Gently apply toilet paper on top. Paint it properly with red paint and powder it. Then take red lip gloss and highlight the hollows.

Guys can also use this method.

And to find out how to paint your face to match this body makeup, I advise you to look at this tutorial:

Nurse

A popular image that is easy to reproduce at home. For him, the most important thing is the surroundings, which is achieved through proper makeup and various simple attributes. A medical mask and gown are enough to make you a real scary nurse.

Focus on the lips and eyes for a complete look. Unusual lenses will also help you achieve results.

You can see a step-by-step video of transformation into a nurse below:

Mickey Mouse (Minnie Mouse)

For Mickey's girlfriend, you will need to do bright evening makeup with the addition of a black nose and use the heroine's traditional round ears. Don't forget to stock up on some gorgeous false eyelashes to complete your beautiful Minnie look.

If you want your face to look more like a cartoon character, then try experimenting with arrows and pay special attention to lip makeup.

And a completely different vision of Minnie awaits you in the video below. This is perhaps the closest bow to the original.

Cobweb (Spider Queen)

You can create this look using black eyeliner and dark eye shadow. Mark with dots the places through which the lines of the web will pass. From the upper eyelid, draw several spider lines (one to each point) at the same distance from each other. Don't forget about the transverse lines to make the pattern complete.

You can complement the character with pale lip gloss.

The web can be made in a slightly different way, without using the eyelid itself.

Queen of Spades

For the first version of this Halloween makeup, it will be enough to apply white makeup and the attributes of a card ruler. Maybe you'd like to make the queen of hearts? Decide on the color and boldly apply the pattern, seasoning it with sparkles or rhinestones. Use the color of your lips to highlight your eye color.

An interesting vision of the bloody Queen of Spades is presented in this video with a detailed master class on how to create it.

Harley Quinn

The popularity of this character was due to the incredibly promoted film “Suicide squad” with accompanying comics. At one time, there were even memes on the Internet about Harley and Halloween: they say, all the girls will now transform into her for this holiday. Whether this is true or not is up to you to judge, but see the makeup of this young lady with a detailed description below.

Make-up paints will be used; in the absence of them, you can use simple gouache.

It's not surprising that Harley Quinn has had more than one make-up video done.

Video on how to create Halloween makeup at home

In the video master classes you will see some more interesting ideas on how to do very scary makeup: eyes on lips, a vampire and some other characters. Again, ordinary cosmetics are used for them.

Eye on lips

It’s more of an element of make-up – but what a make-up! With him, the rest of your appearance is not important.

A vampire

I saved the classics of the genre for last. The vampire is very similar to the witch in the way it performs. Can be used for a child's or woman's look.

Mermaid

The adorable little mermaid may not be the most common character for Halloween, but it is very appropriate. You can make it very creepy if you want, but I suggest paying attention to a cute interpretation of such a Halloween idea.

Ideas for the worst men's makeup

So that guys don’t worry, here are a few rules for masculine makeup that will definitely look like makeup and not like girly evening makeup:

Do not use mascara under any circumstances (only for streaks and patterns on the face)
If the makeup involves painting lips, then draw fangs, evil grins, etc.
Leave the glitter to the girls. Only matte colors for you.

And here are specific ideas that you can implement yourself.

Joker

Great and terrible! A famous comic book and film hero who is hard not to recognize. For boys, the idea is simply perfect. You will need makeup or gouache and a little hair gel to make the Joker look truly scary.

Evil clown

Although the master class is shown by a girl, this cool Halloween makeup is more suitable for guys due to its scary nature

Billy from the movie "Saw"

This cool look couldn't be more perfect for Halloween. Although very often they forget about him for some reason. Try it, your friends will just be horrified)

This concludes the article. There is still a lot of time before the holiday, but who knows when a masquerade will happen in your life?)

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!

Everything you need can probably be found in a basic cosmetic bag: eyeliner, dark gray eye shadow, black pencil, red lipstick and foundation. But for this make-up it is better to use a foundation lighter than your natural skin tone, so that your face turns out deathly pale.

Makeup Harley Quinn

The look of the supervillain from Suicide Squad after the film's release became as classic a Halloween makeup look as Santa Muerte and Catwoman. Its main advantage is that it does not require precision in execution, so even beginners can create it. Follow our photo instructions.
