3 Halloween Costume Ideas You Can Do With Just Makeup

Directions

1. Start by drawing a V shape between your eyebrows, following your natural brow arch and stretching the ends toward your temples. Above that, add smaller V shapes that get progressively smaller as you go up toward your hairline. For the lower part of the mask, duplicate the upper line's path, tracing along the curve beneath your lower eyelids until you hit the outer corners. Finally, go over all these lines with a jet-black liner.
2. Pick up rose-toned eyeshadow or powder blush on a flat brush and sweep it within the mask outline, blending well to add depth.
3. Apply glittery eyeshadow or use a glitter liner to add shimmering accents onto the dots and lines you've drawn.
4. Begin by applying a gold eyeshadow all over your eyelids, starting at the inner corners and sweeping upward to the brow bone and outward beyond the outer corners.
5. With a liquid liner, draw over the gold shadow and along the crease of your eye. Add freehand dash marks spreading outward toward your brows, temples, and both inner and outer eye corners. Beneath your lower lashline, draw feathery lines. Link the two sides of the mask by adding a few more dashes across the bridge of your nose.
6. Finish with a touch of metallic blue shadow at the inner corners of your eyes and along the lower lashline. Curl your lashes and apply a volumizing mascara.
7. Create a khaki-green smoky eye by applying deep shadow for a sultry effect.
8. Use your fingertip to press indigo-blue eyeshadow onto your eyelids for intense color payoff. Gently wiggle your finger to soften the edges and achieve a blurred look.
9. With an eyeliner, draw two wing shapes around the outer corner of each eye. For the first wing, begin at the end of your brow, sweep outward toward your temple, and end at the outer eye corner. For the second wing, start at the same brow tail, go downward toward your cheekbone, and stop at the midpoint of your lower lashline.
