Spider Makeup
Spider makeup is an easy way to highlight your eyes. This makeup is based on a smoky eye with dark highlights and a perfectly uniform pale complexion. To help you achieve it more easily, here are the main steps to follow:
- Even out your complexion by choosing a foundation that is lighter than your natural skin tone.
- Apply black lip color to your lips using a brush.
- Then create a smoky eye using dark shades. Another tip: apply golden shades to the inner corner of the eye.
- Deliberately accentuate your eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line of your eyelid. Don't forget to apply mascara and use eyebrow makeup to make them look thicker.
- Finally, when your eye makeup is finished. Finish your makeup by drawing spider legs on the upper and lower eyelids. You can add volume by also opting for a natural eyelash extension !
A little tip, to give a more relief effect to your makeup, add a few white spots on the spider legs to give a more realistic appearance.
Vampire Makeup
The vampire is one of the favorite characters of Halloween. The ideal for a successful vampire make-up is to pale your complexion and unify it by using a fairly opaque covering foundation.
Then use a red lipstick to make a more striking contrast. Then create a black smoky eye to enhance the color of your eyes.
To finish off your vampire makeup, use a thin brush with pale pink shades to draw small blood vessels under your eyes. You can also give a more frightening effect by using opaque red lenses.
Cat makeup
The cat, the faithful companion of witches, is one of the emblems of the Halloween party. This makeup also allows you to highlight your eyes in a fun and original way.
For a successful cat makeup, start by evening out your complexion with your usual foundation. Then use a black brush to line your lips. Draw small dots above your mouth and lines on the bottom of your cheeks to reproduce the cat's whiskers. Then, lightly line your nose by imitating the shape of the muzzle.
Finally, bet everything on your look by creating a cat eye. This is an inverted eyeliner that has the effect of emphasizing the lower part of your eyes. You can also apply a fairly light eyeshadow. This will brighten and intensify your look. However, be careful, this type of make-up does not flatter women with drooping eyelids.
Clown Makeup
The clown is the flagship makeup of Halloween. It can be done on a white complexion or on a natural complexion. To achieve a makeup that perfectly highlights your eyes, first make a fairly thin line of eyeliner. Do not hesitate to stretch your line outwards by extending the line of eyeliner on the upper lash line. Then, with an eyeliner or an eyebrow pencil , make a vertical line towards the top and bottom of your eyelids passing through the center of your eyes. You can draw triangle shapes, characteristic of clown makeup. Finally, do not forget to make up your lips with a red shade and give them a stretched effect by slightly lengthening the corner of your lips using a pencil of the same color as your lipstick.
The Calavera
La Calavera is one of the typical Halloween makeups. Coming straight from Mexico and its famous Day of the Dead, this colorful makeup will highlight your eyes and can be done in many different ways according to your tastes.
Here are our tips for doing it well:
- Apply opaque white makeup all over your face.
- Draw the cavities at eye level using dark shades.
- Consider drawing floral patterns around your eyes or on your eyebrows.
- Also mark the nasal cavity with black makeup.
- Finally, finish your make-up by making up your mouth using a brush and black make-up that you will apply to the center of your lips. Then make small strokes starting from the center of your mouth to reproduce the teeth of your calavera.
