Whether you’re dressing up as a cute character, a scary creature, or an animal, it always makes the Halloween evening a lot more fun. But the makeup is what really makes your Halloween look complete.
And sometimes Halloween makeup looks are so good, they don’t even need to be paired with a costume. They go so well with just about anything you wear.
Down below, I’ve found some beyond cool Halloween makeup ideas you can try out this year. They’re all beautifully scary and perfect for the spooky season. So check out the ideas for Halloween face makeup below and see what works best for your mood or vibe.
1. Popart Zombie
This dramatic yet almost cute Halloween makeup look was my favorite, hence it being at the top of the list.
The color scheme reminds me a bit of Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas, and it’s honestly just a really fun look for when you wanna look a bit scary (but in a cool way).
2. Stitched Mouth Make Up
If you’re trying to go for a more creepy look with your Halloween makeup, then this is your answer. Maybe pair it with some creepy contact lenses, and you’re all set for your Halloween celebrations.
