5 Easy Halloween Makeup Looks

Every year, Halloween seems to sneak up on me, and I’m scrambling at the last minute to throw something together! These 5 makeup looks are perfect for that last-minute costume party. They are super simple to do, but create maximum impact. I created each one with makeup I already had at home, much of which is from the dollar store! Add some small accessories for the finishing touch to make you 100% costume party ready.

EYES

  • Use a purple eyeshadow in your crease, a pink tone on your lid, and a shimmery silver or white in the inner corner.
  • Glide a white eyeliner pencil liner across your water line.
  • Apply black liquid liner to your upper lash line with a gorgeously long wing.
  • Add a glamorous pair of lashes!
  • Cut small pieces off the edges of another pair of lashes and apply them upside down in the outer corners of your bottom lash line.
  • Define your brows with a pencil, powder or pomade.

FACE

  • Start with a base of primer and foundation, correcting and concealing as needed.
  • Generously apply purple and pink eyeshadow or blush to create a strong contour around your hairline and below your cheekbones with a makeup sponge.
  • Use your favourite highlighter or silvery eyeshadow to brighten your forehead, the bridge of your nose, your cheekbones, your cupid’s bow, and the inner corners of your eyes.
  • Use eyeshadow or blush with deep purple and pink tones and a makeup sponge to create shadows along the hairline and under the cheekbones. Then use your favourite highlighter or silvery eyeshadow to brighten your forehead, the bridge of your nose, your cheekbones, and the inner corners of your eyes.
  • Add sparkles! I used a glitter primer and applied white iridescent glitter on all of the highlighted areas.
  • Apply a soft pink or purple lipstick.
  • Finish with setting spray to keep this look in place all day & night!

FINISHING TOUCHES

  • Style your hair with a soft curl, and mist with a veil of glitter hairspray (obviously)
  • Add a cute unicorn headband, store-bought or DIY (I got this one at Dollarama)
  • I wore a simple black tank top with a rose gold sequinned skirt
  • If you choose to wear something sleeveless or with a low neckline, add some highlighter to your shoulders and collar bones!

EYES

  • Apply a blue or green eyeshadow to your entire lid.
  • Add shimmery white eyeshadow or highlighter to your brow bone and inner corner.
  • Apply winged black liquid eyeliner to your upper lash line.
  • Add a turquoise liquid liner to your lower lash line that follows through to meet and extend the black wing above it.
  • Apply a mascara (I used black, but a coloured one would be super fun!)
  • Define your brows with your favourite pencil, powder, or pomade.

FACE

  • Start with a base of primer and foundation, correcting and concealing as needed.
  • Stretch a fishnet stocking across your skin (I used bobby pins to secure it to my hair on each side).
  • Use a makeup sponge to apply blue, green, and purple eyeshadow to your forehead and cheeks. Be generous with the pigment so the scales have a strong shape,
  • Carefully remove the stocking without smudging your beautiful lines!
  • Add a shimmery highlighter to your cheekbones and the bridge of your nose.
  • Apply rhinestone stickers at your temples (mine are from the craft section at Dollarama).
  • Add a cool-toned lip colour (mine is a mix of blue and purple lipsticks)

  • Glide a white eyeliner pencil liner across your water line.
  • Use a black liquid eyeliner on your upper lash line from the very inner corner all the way to the edge. Create a long wing.
  • Apply black liquid eyeliner from the middle to the outer edge of your lower lash line, and draw long eyelashes from the outer corners.

  • Draw whisker dots and a thin line through your cupid’s bow with black liquid eyeliner.
