Autumn is famous not only for its dreary weather, yellow leaves, warm tea, fresh baked goods and pumpkin pies. She is also adored by everyone thanks to such a holiday as Halloween. In America, this holiday has become very popular, unlike the CIS countries. There it is considered a big event, with many families decorating their homes with pumpkins and spider webs. However, even among us it delights children and teenagers. Today we’ll tell you how to do Halloween makeup at home and look at the top most common looks.
After all, it’s great fun to dress up in costumes, put on makeup, carve pumpkins and ask neighbors for sweets. An atmosphere of mystery and slight darkness rises in the air. However, with the help of makeup you can add even more charm to the holiday and brighten your mood. Even during the process, you can recharge yourself with the appropriate energy and then conquer everyone with your magical image. Combining colors and choosing outfits is an art. Keep a selection of unique makeup looks that no one will remain indifferent to.
Light makeup for Halloween
Let's start with simple options. The most common trick in Halloween makeup is bleeding the face. This is usually done by using a light foundation or powder. All parts of the face become pale, even the lips. There is also a brighter option - evening makeup for a vampire or witch with more pronounced features. For example, you can highlight your lips, make a creative design on your eyelids, or fill in your eyebrows.
By the way, the two methods can be combined: we make the face completely white, but apply dark, provocative shadows to the eyelids. This combination can be done without special skills. In a look with simple makeup, the emphasis is on the costume.
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.
Scary makeup
Your imagination and your creative skills are already at work here. As children, many were scared by clowns, screaming masks, and mythical creatures. And based on these fears, it is now possible to create magnificent, interesting images. You can bring to reality the image of a zombie, a corpse bride, Jack the Ripper, the Queen of Spades, Bloody Mary.
Sometimes the process is so fascinating that the results are very frightening and bright makeup. You can use face painting, cream textures, pigmented shadows, rhinestones. It is desirable to get voluminous make-up for a more realistic look.
Tiger King
One of the most popular series from Netflix, “Tiger King,” has given incredible popularity to its main character, Joe Tiger. This will definitely be the funniest Halloween interpretation yet. You will need a thin brush, creamy textures and, of course, a wig. Yes, this may not be such an easy option, but if you succeed, get ready to receive compliments!

Popular Halloween looks
The good thing about this holiday is that you don’t have to limit your imagination and come up with different kinds of looks. On this day you can become your favorite hero, wear bright makeup, and scare half the neighborhood. The main components are hairstyle, makeup and costume.
Moreover, creating a costume is also a very interesting and exciting process. Complete your look with layers, don’t be afraid to stand out and experiment. Even the most typical character options can be embodied in different ways, and now about them. This is who girls can transform into.
Catwoman
Cats are the epitome of sexuality, confidence and independence, even though they can be cute. Makeup also has many options, and here is one of them. It’s very easy to even out the tone of your face, make long arrows, apply eyeliner or face painting to your nose and mustache. In any low-price store you can find a hoop and attach ears to it, or even buy a ready-made one.
You can dress in something black, or find clothes with leopard print. By the way, in the second case, you can use shadows or face painting to paint the same spots on your face to create a full-fledged leopard print makeup. This look looks bold and is also very easy to implement. It comes in millions of variations, so even a cat themed party can have a personal touch.
Witch, demoness, queen of spades
These looks are famous for their popularity due to the simple makeup and the ability to find a large number of black items. Make dark eyes and lips, draw crosses, peaks or something similar near the eyes, dress in dark clothes - and the image is ready.
Mermaid, fairy
These images are not scary, but they look interesting. Here you can come up with something delicate and bright. Wear a pink, blue or other light-colored dress, cut out wings, find a hoop with stars, apply glitter to your hair and eyes - and you are a fairy. Draw scales on your cheek, paint your eyes with an emerald or azure shade, apply glitter to your lips, wear something sparkling - and you are a mermaid.
Art makeup for Halloween
This is a separate type of makeup, which is distinguished by its brightness. You can create a greenish or white tone to your face, line your eyes, highlight your lips and draw a scary smile from the corners. There are no limits here; the scarier the better.
Wounds
Here, Halloween makeup does not involve specific characters. We just take and draw scars, stitched wounds, bones on the face, and you can also make a voluminous red wound using cream and napkins.
How to do makeup at home
It’s quite possible to make a professional holiday make-up yourself, you just need to know some subtleties:
- Before applying any makeup, you should carefully prepare your skin. It is necessary to cleanse the skin in the usual way and be sure to apply moisturizer;
- Before applying makeup, you need to check your skin for allergies to avoid redness and possible unpleasant side effects;
- It is better to think about the character for the holiday in advance so that you have time to collect all the details and practice applying makeup.
What can you paint with?
There are several options for creating holiday makeup:
- professional (theatrical) makeup;
- decorative cosmetics;
- face painting;
- watercolor paints.
Professional makeup artists use special products with a particularly dense texture. This kind of makeup can be applied to the skin and, like a sculptor, you can create any texture. You can purchase such products in specialized stores or online services.
Decorative cosmetics are used to create “light” looks. This option is suitable for girls and will help transform them into graceful witches or sexy ghouls.
Face painting is easy to apply and wash off, and the colors in the palettes are always bright. That is why it is often used to decorate children's faces. Variations of designs can be different, but drawings of animals or butterflies look especially good.
Watercolors are a budget-friendly way to create Halloween makeup. When there is very little time left before the holiday, and it is no longer possible to find professional makeup, watercolors can save the situation. It is recommended to use watercolor rather than gouache, because gouache is denser and after drying the paint begins to crack and spoil the make-up.
It is better to use dense and hard brushes to draw even small details. Brushes for oil painting are well suited; you can purchase them at any stationery store.
Scary doll makeup for Halloween
Many girls love to play with dolls, but in horror films these characters appear before us as something terrible. An empty look, pale skin, a bloody mouth... These creatures do not at all look like children's toys and mercilessly kill people. That is why there has been a cult of such makeups, which are characterized by:
- pale face like porcelain;
- thin eyebrows, or even none at all;
- stand out eyes that can be made with eyeliner and false black eyelashes;
- thin, slightly pink lips;
- lush styling or straight, slightly slicked hair;
- cracks on the face, drawn with a thin pencil.
How to do doll makeup for Halloween
To make it at home, you don't need many things. First, apply a base and light foundation, then create a matte effect with powder. Apply a subtle pinkish, black or white shade to your lips (depending on your mood) and apply black false eyelashes to your eyes. Use a pencil to create the effect of cracked skin, or use paint to apply blood near the corners of your mouth.
Draw short arrows on the eyelids, give them a pinkish or mint tint using pigment. At the end, add a light blush to your cheeks and blend well. Makeup can turn out discreet or sinister, it all depends on the shades. Finish off your look with a beautiful hairstyle, such as curls or a high ponytail with clips.
Voodoo doll makeup
We all know the insidiousness of the Voodoo doll and how it ruins lives. This character is quite scary and can tickle anyone's nerves. Try to make the embodiment of Voodoo on your face. Makeup should start with tone. The doll was made from dirty rags, so it is advisable to make the tone darker and try to create the effect of dust.
Her mouth is embroidered with thread, so we paint over her lips with tone and draw a thin black line on them and imitate seams. We line our eyes with dark eyeliner and apply black shadows. If possible, attach decorative buttons to your face, or use face painting, for example, on the forehead. Clothes should be in brown and beige shades with an aged effect. You can even put on a potato sack, it will fit the theme.
Makeup Anabel
The horror film about Anabelle is one of the most disturbing and intense. This is an equally scary character, and they often try to replicate it on Halloween. The makeup is very simple but has a lot of detail. Let's start, as usual, by evening out the tone, take a light shade, although for an effect closer to the film, you can take a darkish one. Then we will draw thin straight eyebrows without the effect of hairs. Apply long, lush eyelashes to the eyes, draw arrows, and highlight the eyelid with dark shadows.
Apply red blush to the cheeks and blend. Our lips should be purple or bright red with a clear contour. For a more cartoonish effect, you can add outlines with a black pencil, for example, making dimples or emphasizing the lips, but this is optional. There is also a makeup option using face painting - you need to follow the same color combinations, but draw clearer boundaries with a brush. We braid two braids on our head, put on a dress - and Anabelle’s look is ready. Don't forget to smile.
Spider - a fashionable and easy make-up for Halloween 2021
In order to create the image of a spider in makeup, you will need to arm yourself with a black pencil, eyeliner and shadows, mascara, highlighter, glitter and false eyelashes. The spider on the face begins with legs outlined in pencil and drawn with eyeliner. In this case, the “knees” of the spider are not drawn - you will later fill them with sparkles to give the drawing three-dimensionality.
After drawing the spider's legs, proceed to the smokey makeup. To do this, cover the moving eyelid with a black pencil, carefully working out the space between the eyelashes.
Apply black shadows all over your makeup and blend them beautifully. You can apply pearlescent shadows to the corners of your eyes to refresh your look. Also draw the spider's knees with shadows.
And the finishing touch is to glue on the eyelashes.
Devil Woman
The devil in itself is already an unclean word. Immediately one imagines bright fire, blood, darkness and a basement. The devil woman must create the same image, that is, she must be confident, daring and sinister. To scare people, you also need to create such makeup. The face tone can be any, it is advisable to draw cheekbones.
We make the lips burgundy, black or scarlet. The main feature we make is the eyes - the darker the better. Apply mascara to your eyelashes, apply and blend out black shadows. Lenses can also be a great addition. Black lenses combined with a smile will cause panic in any passerby. Red eyes will create an equally frightening image, but the look will be a little more open, and the image will also be closer to a vampire.
You can make some kind of horn buns on your head, or simply attach a hoop with horns. The costume can be a black cloak, a red cape, a black jacket with trousers, or a lace dress.
How to do beautiful or scary makeup for girls on Halloween
Greetings to everyone who is ready to celebrate the scariest night of the year - Halloween! Halloween makeup for girls can help you look like an unreal creature. The word “makeup” in this case has nothing to do with its everyday understanding.
Originating in the mists of time in Great Britain, the holiday has survived to this day and is loved not only in our ancestral homeland, but also beyond its borders. It is celebrated annually on the night from October 31 to November 1. According to legend, it is at this time, on the eve of All Saints' Day, that terrible and mysterious inhabitants of the other world, creepy creatures that instill fear, make their way to the earth...
You can escape from them with the help of a pumpkin lantern, as it was believed since ancient times. Or get lost in their crowd, as fans of Halloween-style parties, where each participant looks like an alien from the other world or a horror movie character, apparently joke.
Halloween Makeup
The most impressive images that we see in theater and cinema are created with the help of special makeup. But your task is to make a spectacular appearance not on stage, but in a circle of friends.
For him, the tools that are found in a cosmetic bag are enough: shadows of different shades (especially dark and blue-green tones), mascara, pencils, liners, blood-red or dark lipstick, foundations, and much more.
Using them for transformation at home, remember your everyday makeup and do the opposite.
Pallor
Down with a healthy complexion, long live lifeless skin. A very light foundation will help you “turn pale.” An easy way to emphasize the deadness of the skin is to do smokey eye makeup and use bold-colored lipstick (blood red or black) for your lips.
Dark circles under the eyes
Carefully disguised in everyday life, for Halloween “bruises” will require enlargement with the help of gray-black or purple shadows. In combination with “sore” eyes they will create an unusual image.
Sore look
Together with deathly pallor, it will hint at the tragic story of a victim of otherworldly forces. Line your eyes with red pencil or eyeliner, or add some red eyeshadow to your eyelids and blend it out.
Drowned eyes
A simple version of a mysterious look. Apply black shadows around the eyes and blend. A view from the depths of the other world is provided.
Unusual lips
In the spirit of Halloween, blood red, wine or black colors. Smeared lipstick terrifies you in everyday life, but on Halloween it scares others. By mixing eye shadow or powder with lipstick, you can easily create the effect of chapped lips.
You can use the lower part of your face as a canvas for painting. Draw rough seams that “tighten” the mouth, or, hiding the natural pinkness of the lips with a natural tone, depict the jaw of the skull.
Flicker
Textures with shimmer and loose glitter, which are rarely used in everyday life, will help out at a Halloween party. They will make the makeup of a fairy-tale creature (mermaid, witch, fairy, etc.) brighter and more expressive.
Horrible details
Bloody tears, wounds, creepy stitches, scars on the skin... If you know how to draw, depict them on your charming face, and Halloween-style makeup is guaranteed. “Blood” can be liquid clear lip liner mixed with burgundy lipstick, or simple products in the kitchen. There are many recipes for artificial blood on the Internet.
Immersion in the image
The holiday has not only an army of fans, but also a whole platoon of beloved characters. Many of them came from ancient legends and beliefs: vampires, witches, the walking dead.
With the development of cinema, previously unknown characters appeared among the heroes of the holiday: Frankenstein, Harley Quinn, the dead bride and others.
For a Halloween party, many people strive to create a specific, recognizable image: scary or scary cute. Choose which one is closer to your spirit.
Doll
Porcelain-white face, expressive eyes with long eyelashes, bow-shaped lips. A doll face is easy to create with makeup. But what kind of doll will it belong to? Considering the specifics of the holiday, not only cute Barbie, but also a doll from a horror movie may come to the party. She has a tragic expression and signs of damage on her face.
When creating doll makeup with your own hands, draw a new lower contour of the eyes with a pencil, thanks to which they will become huge and wide open. Paint the space between the original and painted eyelids with white.
Draw along the new lower contour and stick lush eyelashes along the upper one. Tint your lips to match your skin color and “create” a new bright mouth: smaller in size, with a childish, plump outline.
Draw cracks, holes, seams on the face, hinting at the difficult fate of the doll.
No less expressive is the ventriloquist’s dummy, which “speaks” instead of its owner. It is most often made of wood (cover the skin of your face with a dense yellowish tone). Due to the special design of the doll, the joints are clearly visible, going down from the corners of the mouth to the bottom, under the chin. You can draw lines imitating them with a dark pencil, or an open mouth.
Corpse Bride
Popular cartoon-inspired character: pale face, expressive sad eyes, bright lips. It can be effectively supplemented with terrible details: scars, abrasions, bloody stitches.
When creating such makeup, the skin tone must be made pale. It is appropriate to add a coloring pigment to the applied product to achieve a dead bluish or greenish tint to the face.
For your eyes, use the rules of smokey eye makeup to make them as deep and expressive as possible. Color your lips dark red, wine or black.
The makeup of the dead bride will be completed by wounds drawn in red pencil, dark spots on the skin hinting at decomposition.
Variety of options
In the vastness of cinema and animation, you can look for other ideas for Halloween. Pay attention to Harley Quinn from the movie "Suicide Squad", the bride of Frankenstein. You can experiment with the embodiment of images of vampiress, witches, and mermaids. On the eve of All Hallows' Day, your imagination is not limited by anything.
By the way, even traditional gothic makeup (especially if you have never used it before) will help you out at a holiday party. But remember that Halloween makeup for girls is not a self-sufficient phenomenon.
Without continuing the game, he looks ridiculous in his hair and suit. Imagine a dead bride with a corresponding face, but without a wedding dress, touched by decay.
Absurd! So create a complete look and you will be terribly irresistible on Halloween night.

Halloween Ghost Makeup
Of course, a ghost costume can be made into a white blanket with two black spots. However, it will be more interesting to become a ghost yourself. You need to take white face paint and thoroughly disguise your face and neck. Then use black shadows to completely paint over the eyelids and get the effect of sunken eyes. You can wear a white spacious dress, a white suit or the same blanket.
Vampire grin
One of the most popular and attractive characters at many masquerades is the vampire. It is chosen by both female and male representatives. It is important to remember that the surface of the face in this makeup should be almost flawless, smooth and pale.
In addition to false fangs and deathly pale skin, it is necessary to emphasize the eyes and, of course, the mouth with the remains of the blood of the vampire’s victim. Black eyeliner, lipstick and lip pencil in bright red shades, and the lightest possible powder will be used.
Bloodthirsty zombie
It is quite difficult to create professional makeup for corpses that have risen from the graves. It is hardly possible to do without layers of artificial skin, blood, additional pads and special cosmetics. But for home make-up, the task can be simplified a little. To emphasize flaky, sagging skin, you need to apply light powder on top of the liquid makeup base, or, conversely, apply makeup paint on top of the powder or powder base. The effect of skin decomposition will help to show blurry transitions of shades of red, white, gray, black and green.
The easiest way to demonstrate the bloodthirsty nature of the makeup is to use artificial blood. If you don’t have it on hand, there is a simple home recipe: add grated fresh beets with water, cook, adding a spoonful of sugar and vinegar for rich color and thickness. You can safely decorate your costume and makeup with this mixture. For example, draw a bloody wound on the forehead, smear the mouth and neck area with artificial blood. Complete the look with black circles under the eyes and cloudy insert lenses.
Prominent veins
They can complement the makeup of different looks, but such veins look impressive on their own. You need to stock up on black and white eyeliner, black eyeliner, black and silver eye shadow. To begin, create a wide layer of eyeliner and dark shadows around the eye line. Silvery liquid shadows in the inner corner of the eyes and under the lower lash line will add special expressiveness to the look. Then up and down from the eyes, using a black and white pencil, you need to carefully draw fine lines of veins. Complete the look with black lipstick and eyebrows.
Nurse makeup
Nurses are not always kind and noble girls who are ready to help. On Halloween, they turn into sinister ladies who are not helpful at all, but can cause a lot of pain and suffering. Beware of them if you are afraid of injections and knives. Or become one of them. For makeup, the first thing you need is a foundation, a light shade. We straighten out the face and start drawing on the features.
We contour the nose and cheekbones to create the shape of the skull. We paint our lips with bright red lipstick, you can make streaks of blood. The option to make the lips match the tone of the face, light, is also welcome. We highlight the eyes with mascara, the shadows can be darker, no glitter. It would be ideal if you wear gray or white lenses, so the look will be more empty and intimidating. You can add a couple of wounds or stitches to the face using paints. The final stage will be a white coat or shirt stained with blood.
If you're going for a Kill Bill look, wear an eye patch and highlight your lips.
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:
Angel
Plunge into the image of a star - become a gloomy angel for the holiday.
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.
Makeup of the Queen of Spades
As children, many tried to call this lady, broke mirrors and listened to every step. The Queen of Spades made hearts beat faster and appeared in dreams. Therefore, this character is one of the most popular and scary, whose makeup we will try to repeat. The Queen of Spades is the embodiment of horror and darkness, so prepare for a lot of black.
First, we lighten the complexion with a whitish foundation, covering the lips. They can be left pale or painted over with black lipstick. We do the eyes using the smokey technique, draw arrows, paint the eyelashes, you can apply a little dark glitter. Near the corner of the eye you can draw a black peak with eyeliner.
We complete the look with a hairstyle. You can curl your hair or pin it up with a crab, the look is ideal for brunettes. In other cases, we put on a wig, hide our hair, or use a tint spray. We can put a veil on our face and a black hat on our head. These strict elements will emphasize sexuality and audacity. We put a black robe and cloak over the body, and we can add lace to the look. And why not put a deck of cards in your pocket.
Face painting for Halloween spider web
The celebration of Halloween in our country is becoming larger every year. Everyone wants to look spectacular at an All Saints' Day party. Therefore, it is important to choose an image, an appropriate outfit and make a scary Halloween makeup.
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 your facial skin with foundation and highlighting your cheekbones, you need to move on to your 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.
Dead Bride Makeup
The corpse bride is a fairly popular Halloween image. It comes from the legend of a buried bride who rebels and pursues her groom. You can turn any fantasies into reality and become that same rebel bride. Let's start with the tone and unnatural pallor, because corpses obviously cannot have pink cheeks. We contour the cheekbones and nose to emphasize the skull, using dark shadows to create the effect of sunken eyes. We make scars and cuts using creams, pencil or tattoos. We dress in a white dress, you can make a veil, preferably get it dirty. We take the bouquet in our hands and look for the victim.
Makeup options for men
The male half tends to choose strong and dangerous negative characters on Halloween. Images of skeletons and zombies are also popular. But young people always have their suits in order. Pants and shirt are suitable for each character.
Men need to prepare for applying makeup just as carefully as women. You should clean your face first so that the paint adheres better. The images of the famous Joker and Batman are quite simple to apply. You will need dark eye shadow and red lip makeup.
Harley Quinn Makeup
“Suicide Squad” at one time captivated cinema lovers. Harley has become the object of adoration and cosplay, including on Halloween. Her image does not require precision, but let's try to make it classic. We make a light, always even tone of the face, draw cheekbones. We highlight our lips with bright red lipstick, you can create a smeared effect.
We paint the eyelashes with mascara, the eyelids with dark or pink-blue (you can have a gradient or a separate color for each eye) shadows, we simply set the eyebrows with a brush, and draw arrows. The eyes should look big and bright, so don’t skimp on the pigment and apply the base and fixative. Draw a heart with eyeliner near the corner of your eye. We make two ponytails on the head, put on a white T-shirt with a print, shorts, fishnet tights - and you're done. If possible, grab a bat.
Pennywise the Clown
Another classic that's easy to portray is Pennywise the Clown, the main antagonist of Stephen King's It and its film adaptations. Enough white tone, dark shadows, red lipstick - and your look is ready!

Makeup Wednesday Addams
This is one of the most popular serial characters. It is distinguished by its harmfulness, independence and minimalism. Her look is very easy to replicate. We make the face pale, leaving the lips barely pink. We braid two pigtails and put on something like a dark school uniform. We make an angry look and we're done.
Joker Makeup
To create Batman's enemy, you will need to make the entire face white using paint. This will be our canvas for creativity. We darken the cheekbones and draw in the eyebrows. We make short black arrows, not pointed, apply gray and black shadows to the eyelids, blend them heavily. We paint our lips with red lipstick, being careless, we draw a long smile from the corners of the mouth. We put on a suit, let our hair down and enjoy. You will find detailed lessons from makeup artist Yulia Sizykh.
Pin-up beauty
For those who see the world in color rather than black and white, this simple but very effective makeup in the style of pin-up comics is suitable. The main tool will again be black eyeliner: use it to draw thin curved eyebrows, huge doll-like eyes with eyelashes, outline the lips and emphasize the back of the nose. Now use a white pencil to fill in the entire lower eyelid, making your eyes look as big as possible, apply red lipstick to your lips and a little to your cheeks - instead of blush.
- Tip: Any wig will enhance the cartoon effect.

Pop art for Halloween
This style is reminiscent of comic books. It is not always frightening, but on the contrary, it often lifts the mood. To implement such makeup, you will need paints or makeup. First we even out the tone of the face. Then we start sculpting with a brush. We need to highlight all the features to get a comic book effect. We draw lines on the cheekbones, chin, nose, forehead, etc.
We paint our eyes with any bright shadows and apply black eyelashes. It is customary to apply bright red matte lipstick on the lips. It is also advisable to outline the outline in black. If you want to draw a smile, draw thick white lines on the upper and lower lips, imitating teeth. Then apply lipstick to the remaining lip contour. Draw the teeth and outline the lips with a black pencil. You can add highlights to your face using a white pencil. If desired, draw dots on the cheeks, like in comics.
Look on the Internet how to do this to avoid getting freckles. We put on a shirt and tie its ponytails in the middle, shorts or a miniskirt, curl our hair or make a high ponytail - and we get the look of a coquette from a comic book. You can experiment with clothes and colors.
Mad Witch
October 31 is the only day of the year when makeup should not decorate us, but make us as scary as possible. Take this chance and turn into a crazy witch: outline your eyes boldly with a black pencil, and then draw a terrifying web all over your face. It couldn’t be simpler - the lines don’t have to be straight.
- Hint: don't forget to draw or glue a figurine of a fat spider that has thrown its predatory web over your face.

Bat
This image is somewhat reminiscent of vampires. We need to make the complexion white. Next we highlight the eyes using dark shadows. Lips may be red, pale, blue. If desired, you can add blood stains. It would be great if you could get removable fangs. We put a headband with ears on our head, a cloak or something loose on our body. You can also complement the look with red lenses.
Joker
And let someone say that the image of the Joker for Halloween is something banal. After all, it can be made in various variations and it will always look fresh! And in the interpretation of blogger @i_inanna, it is also very simple to implement.

Witch
This is one of the most popular Halloween looks. It has many variations and always looks creepy. Let's start by evening out the tone of the face, if possible, make it greenish. If we want to become a nasty witch, we draw wrinkles, make the lips brownish, add warts from the makeup kit, or draw them too. If we want to become a sexy witch, we draw arrows on our eyes and apply bright shadows, highlight our lips with black or burgundy lipstick, and apply glitter to our hair. You can wear a black robe and hat. You can complement the look with a black cat, pumpkin or broom.
Catwoman
The black cat costume is the most popular for Halloween, because this look is very feminine and seductive. All you need to do is put on high heels, get a festive manicure, add flirty ears and a long ponytail. And you can even do your makeup in five minutes: use a black pencil or liquid eyeliner to draw large arrows, emphasize a neat nose and don’t forget about a long mustache.
- Hint : using the same scheme, you can draw the makeup of a cunning fox or Bambi the deer.
