18 Halloween Makeup Ideas to Try This Year

Hey my beautiful ladies! Halloween will be here in no time, and soon we’ll all be faced with the million-dollar question: What should I be for Halloween this year?

Instead of spending weeks of preparation and a lot of money on a clichéd Halloween costume that you’ll only wear once before throwing it into the back of your closet, why not let your creative side show and make your face the main attraction to your costume using some clever Halloween makeup? Here are 18 Halloween makeup ideas, so you can step out and scare (or charm) your friends in style.

If you think you are not artistically talented enough to pull off one of these cool Halloween makeup looks, you can always find a makeup artist to help you with your imagination. Or you can check out some step-by-step YouTube tutorials, scroll through Pinterest, or you can stalk creative people on Instagram. I guarantee it’ll be a more interesting way to dress up than buying another sexy nurse costume.

You don’t need expensive costume makeup to create most of these Halloween makeup looks. In fact, you can grab most ingredients in the makeup counter of your local drugstore. The key is creativity: You can create the Joker’s white face with a foundation in many shades lighter than your natural skin tone, or you create freckles and scars with eyeliner and lip pencils. Anything goes! Start each makeup with a clean, moisturized face and finish it with a spritz of setting spray to ensure your look lasts all night.

Check out the rest of the Halloween makeup ideas and let me know which one you’re planning to try.
