15 Super Cool Halloween Makeup Ideas

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Tuesday October 22, 2013

For us beauty junkies, Halloween isn't just an occasion to load up on sugary sweets. It's an event to show off those makeup skillz. With some great makeup, not only are you going to blow all the other peeps out of the water, but you can coyly say, 'oh this, yeah I just like to dabble, it's nothing'. Plus, a fab face means that you don't have to necessarily go all out in the clothing department. You probably have everything you need for your costume in your makeup kit! And you can get as adorable or as grotesque as you desire!

Here are 15 amazing makeup ideas for your Halloween night:

Creative Critters

(clockwise from left) Meow! This look is simple and subtle. Perfect for a last minute costume or those who aren't too keen on this crazy day.

Love the shading in this fox look. Seriously, I would wear that smoky eye for a girls' night out, it's too cute.

This deer face manages to be so sweet, cute and eerily realistic at the same time. Kudos on the contouring too!

Let Out Your Inner Artist

I'm in love with the Lichtenstein style comic book girl (so I included it twice!). I think it looks amazing, plus check out that cat eye, so slick!

Beside Lichtenstein lady, you'll see two other masterpieces: a Picasso and a Warhol. While it takes some serious face painting, I think it's worth it when you see how it looks put together.

Lastly, I couldn't resist this Frida. HOW CUTE?! If you want to pull this off for yourself, just draw in a unibrow and add a floral hairpiece.

Pop Culture Icons

Pull a Katy Perry with a coloured wig (I'm pretty sure she's done everything under the sun, so feel free to switch up the colour) and major false eyelashes.

Love Lady Gaga? Copy her newest album art with this slightly creepy sad clown face.

Marilyn Monroe is always a good bet. This look is flattering on almost everyone, and if you're already a blonde, it's extra easy to do!

Bold lower lashes and a bright blue make for a swinging 60's look that can be translated into a mod/go go dancer or even Twiggy costume.

Ghouls and Grayscale

Kind of disturbing? Makes it perfect for Halloween. Check it out here.

Beetlejuice for her: this look is super gross and excellent to freak out your friends.

Love old 50's sitcoms? Recreate your favourite black and white show as these grayscale characters, all you need is facepaint and black and white clothes.

Which of these do you love? What will you be doing for Halloween?
