Use black-toned face coloring to make the scarecrow smile and reddish cheeks.


3) The Vampire makeup

This makeup for Halloween concerns forming a creepy and haunting face. To accomplish this, apply white paint all over the face for a light-colored complexion. Then, use dark-tinted eyeshadow or eyeliner (water-proof and smudge-proof) to form smoky and passionate eyes.

Add several tiny droplets of artificial blood close to the mouth to look like a genuinely vampiric impact for an added glimmer. Don't pass up the opportunity to complete this vampire style with a set of fake vampire teeth for a "scream-worthy" look.


4) The Beetlejuice makeup

A spooky yet iconic look boosted by the naughty ghoul from the cult classic movie is worth a try this Halloween.

Smear the face with white-toned facial makeup to acquire this spooky changeover. Add a hint of purple eyeshadow to the eyes for a haunting impact. Make splotches of green all over the face with a sponge and makeup blender to imitate Beetlejuice's ghostly face.

Leave the hair tousled, or go out with a rich green wig for the concluding touch to release the inner ghost with the most!

With this unique cracked pumpkin makeup, which turns into a living jack-o'-lantern for Halloween, one can turn heads. This beautiful work of art may be swiftly created with furious black and flaming orange face paint.
