Transform yourself with easy Halloween makeup! A collection of cute and scary makeup ideas (1–10)
scar ribbon
https://www.tiktok.com/@sui__33/video/7425539757578456327A wound-ribbon makeup look that captures scariness within cuteness.
Layer gray and brown eyeshadows over the eyelids, then tighten the eye area with touches of red.
Add a flicked eyeliner, false lashes, and draw aegyo-sal for a cute finish, then use red eyeshadow to draw the wound lines.
Apply glue and attach tissue over the lines, layering more eyeshadow to create a realistic wound effect.
Finally, adhere ribbons along the wound lines and you’re done! Use thin ribbons for the best result.
bruise makeup
To boost the Halloween vibe, the key to bruise makeup is building dimension while blending colors as you shape the face.
Use darker eyeshadow shades and apply them unevenly around the eyes to create the look of bruising for a striking eye area.
After applying red lipstick, lightly dab some of the same shadow used around the eyes onto the lips to tone down the red for a darker, muted mouth.
Use liquid eyeliner to outline the corners of the mouth, and combine it with the lipstick to create bruise-like patterns.
Finally, mix petroleum jelly with loose eyeshadow powder and dab it under the eyes to mimic dripping blood, and you’re done.
Animal makeup
Many people dress up as animals for Halloween, right? That’s why you’ll want to check out animal-inspired makeup! The overall color palette and vibe will vary depending on which animal you choose, but since you’ll often paint the tip of your nose black, it’s best to make your eye makeup bold so it doesn’t get overshadowed.
Even if you usually smudge your eyeliner, try drawing a thick, defined line for animal makeup.
Using a lip liner will also give your lips a crisp, well-defined shape.
Spider web makeup
Here’s a fun idea for anyone who wants to add just a touch of Halloween to their everyday makeup.
Draw your eyeliner as usual, then branch it out at the end.
Connect the branches with fine lines, and you’ll have a spiderweb at the outer corner of your eye.
You can draw a dangling thread and a spider, or use face stickers to make it cute—both sound fun.
Eyeliners come in many colors, so pick one that matches your costume and enjoy your spiderweb look.
Heart Make

Here’s a heart makeup look I recommend for those dressing as a little devil or a witch.
Make a heart-shaped stencil out of paper, apply concealer, and stick it onto your cheek.
Use a lip product to color around the heart in red, then peel off the paper.
Adding glitter on top makes it sparkle and look super cute.
Draw little horns above your eyebrows and arrows at the outer corners of your eyes with the lip product to finish the heart makeup.
If you don’t have a lip product, try using a dark eyeshadow instead.
Also, when coloring around the heart, tap the product on so the edges look softly blurred.
scar makeup
Scar makeup is the foundation of Halloween makeup! Just learning this one technique lets you add an accent to all kinds of looks and instantly boost the scare factor.
There are many ways to create scars—for example, stick tissues or twisted paper onto the area where you want the wound, layer red lipstick over it, then blend black around the edges.
There are also makeup products specifically for scar effects; with those, you can simply apply the product and lightly blend the edges to create an easy, realistic wound.
It works with any costume or makeup, so give it a try!
Pennywise
@nonochidechi_0226 IT Pennywise makeup 🎈🤡 It’s super easy to do with the makeup you already have, so it’s perfect to try with friends or as a couple—cute and scary at the same time, highly recommended!! ✨ Happy Halloween 🎃Halloween#PennywiseClownMakeupTransformationCostume

“Pennywise” is a scary clown you often see as a Halloween costume.
But when a girl does it, you can also bring out some cuteness.
Start with a white-painted face, of course, and apply a dark eyeshadow in a rounded shape over the eye sockets to create a sunken look.
For the eyebrows, aim for a glowering expression by drawing them with the inner corners flicked upward.
Draw the signature red lines from above the eyebrows down the cheeks, and connect them to the lip line at the end.
Add rhinestones or similar accents here to finish it off in a cute way.
