8. Wednesday Addams

Wednesday Addams is a fictional character from The Addams Family. Wednesday is generally portrayed as a dark, solemn, and serious child who is largely uninterested in the outside world. She is also known for her love of all things gothic and macabre.
10. Deer Makeup

There’s something magical about deer during the autumn months. Maybe it’s the way they gracefully move through the woods, or the way their antlers seem to shimmer in the sunlight.
Whatever the reason, deer have a special place in our hearts during this time of year. And what better way to honor these creatures than by incorporating them into our Halloween costumes?
11. Graveyard Eye Makeup

One of the best things about Halloween is getting to experiment with spooky makeup looks. If you’re looking for some inspiration, try this graveyard eye makeup.
Apply Vaseline
If you are applying face paint, try applying a very thin coat of vaseline to your face before applying the makeup. Face paint can be difficult to remove, and vaseline will help make the removal process easier.
12. The Bride of Frankenstein

This look is a twist on the bride of Frankenstein. The Bride of Frankenstein is a classic 1935 horror film. In this film, a mate (the bride) is created for the Monster.
13. Scarecrow with Hat

There’s something about a scarecrow that just screams Halloween. Maybe it’s the straw sticking out of their clothes or the eerie way they seem to stare at you, but whatever the reason, scarecrows make for excellent Halloween costumes.
14. Modern Deer

Do you want to stand out from the rest of the deer at the Halloween party? If so, try this lovely makeup idea. This easy deer makeup look is sure to turn heads.
Start with Thin Layers
If you’re placing different colors on top of one another, apply a thin coat of makeup at a time and let it dry completely before applying the next layer. This will ensure your makeup looks nice and neat.
15. Bats and Spiders

Whether you’re headed to a Halloween party or just looking to add a little festive flair to your daily routine, this fun and easy look will get you tons of compliments.
16. The Corpse Bride

The Corpse Bride is an animated film directed by Tim Burton. The film tells the story of a young man named Victor who is engaged to a woman named Victoria. On the night before their wedding, Victor accidentally marries a corpse bride instead. The corpse bride, who is named Emily, takes Victor to the underworld where she intends to force him to marry her.
17. Wicked Witch of the West

The Wicked Witch is usually characterized as being cruel, powerful, and determined to get her way. She is often shown using magical spells and flying on her broomstick.
The Wicked Witch is also known for her famous catchphrase, “I’ll get you, my pretty!”No matter how she is portrayed, the Wicked Witch of the West remains one of the most memorable and popular villains of all time.
Create Texture
You can use makeup to create texture. If you use a brushing motion, your makeup will be smoother. However, if you dapple on your makeup, you’ll get a bumpier texture. Play around with how you apply your makeup to discover different textures.
18. The Nightmare Before Christmas

The Nightmare Before Christmas tells the story of Jack Skellington, an inhabitant of Halloween Town who opens a portal to Christmas Town and decides to celebrate the holiday, with some dastardly and comical consequences.
Set Your Makeup
Don’t forget to set your makeup. You wouldn’t want all that hard work going to waste. Use a setting spray to ensure that your makeup stays in place all night long.

If you’re looking for a bold lipstick idea, try this bat lipstick design. Whether you’re looking to add some drama to your look for a night out or simply want to stand out from the crowd, this lipstick is sure to get you noticed.

Scarecrows are the perfect choice for beginners, as they offer a wide range of possibilities when it comes to both the design and execution of the look. Plus, there’s no need to worry about getting the proportions perfect – after all, scarecrows are supposed to be a little bit imperfect.

Cat makeup is a timeless Halloween classic that can be as simple or as elaborate as you like. To create a basic cat look, start by applying a light foundation all over your face to even out your skin tone.
Next, use a black eyeliner pencil to line your eyes, extending the liner slightly at the outer corners to create a winged effect. Add some lashes and apply some mascara, then fill in your eyebrows using a brow pencil or shadow.
Finally, use a liquid eyeliner to draw a heart on your nose, use a black lip liner to draw on whiskers, and apply some red lipstick to your lips. Oh, and don’t forget the blush!

Halloween is the perfect time to get creative with your makeup. One idea that I really love is to create pink and black spider webs around your eyes.
