Halloween is creeping up on us, which means it’s time to start getting creative.
A splash of blood, an overpowering clown smile, or a few whiskers…regardless of how seriously you take this spooky season, it never hurts to play into all the Halloween fun.
We’ve rounded up our top 10 favourite Halloween makeup looks that are sure to get you into the spirits.
Moo Deng
If you’re constantly online like us, you’ve heard of Moo Deng….the pygmy hippo in Thailand.
Why not channel this queen for Halloween?
Sexy Scarecrow
An oldie but a goldie! A smoky eye, a mix of oranges and browns, a little patchwork, and a freckled face.
A cute scarecrow look is easy to create and is perfect for achieving both sexy and spooky vibes.
