Halloween Makeup

Halloween is coming up this weekend, and it seems that I already have a list of people lining up for me to do their makeup. For anyone who enjoys doing makeup, Halloween is an absolute dream. The "crazyness" of the holidays allows such a flow of creativity and freedom when creating a look that any other day may be deemed "too much".

Wether you're sticking to the traditional costumes, like witches and vampires, or trying something a little different, like your favorite movie character or celebrity, makeup can be a great way to showcase your talent and passion to the extreme.

Dont have any ideas on how to do your makeup?
  • If you're dressing up as a celebrity, choose a look they are well known for, and embellish it. Going as Jennifer Lopez? Give her famous bronze makeup added glam by pressing gold glitter onto eyelids and out into a "cat eye". Kim Kardashian? A fan of long lashes, take a tip from Kim and grab the longest lashes you can find and pair them with a sultry smokey eye!
  • Going for a more "typical" Halloween look? Visit maccosmetics.com (under Artistry - MAC looks) and take a hint from the free face charts. Under the "Style Black" collection, there are some excellent ideas for vampire and undead costumes using pitch black shadow and lipstick, plus gorgeously contoured cheek bones.

So take advantage of Halloween this year and go all out: glitter, bright colors, and fake eye lashes give instant POP and FUN to any look!!

HAVE FUN!
