The coolest, scariest, creepiest, and popular Halloween looks for anyone inspired by top Youtubers. The list starts off with the easier looks, and continues on to more challenging looks, even ones that might not be possible to mimic.

 

15 MINUTE DEMON FOR HALLOWEEN 2018 BY LINDA HALLBERG TUTORIALS

This look takes about 15-20 minutes to do, and it only requires your own daily makeup, a grey or black crayon, infinity palette, and infinity glass!

It’s great for last minute Halloween looks, or anyone who is running low on time. It can be pulled of by both males and females, and accessorized to your preference.

You can add some eye contacts to complete the look.

 

EASY HALLOWEEN SKULL MAKEUP TUTORIAL BY GEORGEOUS

This simple Halloween skull/skeleton look is great for men. It does not require many products, and the steps are very easy to follow.

All you will need is a makeup sponge, white and black face paint, thin brush, and thicker brush.

This look is popular amongst many males as their Halloween look. It can be easily worn with a skeleton costume, or just black clothes with a big black hood.

If you blend and detail the neck as well, it gives off even better full look, and lessens the chance that any areas that would ruin the illusion of a skeleton.

 

UNICORN MAKEUP TUTORIAL
| DIY UNICORN HEADBAND | COSTUME AND HAIR BY KAYLEIGH NOELLE

This video is very helpful for anyone trying to dress up as a unicorn. The Youtuber explains how to create your own horn and headband piece. If you’d like, you can order a beautiful pink wig that she wears in the video for the full look.

If you are just trying to see how to do unicorn makeup here are the steps.

The makeup look includes peach eye shadow for the inner corner of the eyes, and a fuchsia color for the outer corner. If you have dark eyebrows, block them out using a white concealer and powder them down.

The makeup artist uses Nyx glitter cream palette called “Pretty in Pink,” mix the white and pink shades together and apply them all over your cheekbones, nose, and forehead.

Then she applies glitter on top of her forehead going across and the temples. You can use as much glitter as you please.

You can either wear a unicorn headband found in stores or online, or you can create your own by watching this video. If you choose to make your own, the headband looks beautiful when you loop your hair around the ears.

 

WEREWOLF HALLOWEEN MAKEUP TUTORIAL | 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN BY ALEX FACTION

Surprisingly, there are not many male makeup artists that share their awesome Halloween tutorials online, but Alex does a phenomenal job with all types of looks for males in particular.

Werewolf is a trendy Halloween costume that men like to dress up as. It is always better when the face is done too, and Alex does a great job explaining how this look can be done.

It is not too challenging, and works great with men who have some facial hair. Again, eye contacts make this look better, but do not have to be included.

 

IT 2017 – PENNYWISE HALLOWEEN MAKEUP TUTORIAL BY ALEX FACTION

This is another popular Halloween look that many males favor. It can be done multiple ways, but Alex does a wonderful job explaining how he does his.

He suggests using nude eyeliner to sketch out the look to avoid making mistakes or getting lost with the look.

He uses lash glue and applies washers for screws for the complete IT look. There are not many products used in this tutorial, so it is fairly easy. You can also use colored contacts and a red wig or spray for the full look.

 

EVIL MERMAID / GREEK GOD HALLOWEEN COSTUME MAKEUP TUTORIAL BY ALEX FACTION

This awesome look can be done on both males and females. Mermaids and greek gods and goddesses are other fun looks that many people try to pull of for Halloween.

I recommend this tutorial because it can be done on anyone with the same products.

Alex uses Petroleum Jelly on his eyebrows to project them from the liquid latex that he uses right after. He then applies gold leaf on top of the eyebrows, cheeks, forehead, neck and shoulders.

The whole look is stunning. He even adds gold color on his ears and creates scales on his cheekbones. This look involves lots of gold colors.

 

ENCHANTRESS HALLOWEEN TRANSFORMATION BY CARLI BYBEL

This is a Halloween look based on Enchantress from Suicide Squad that is played by Cara Delevingne.

For this look, you can create your own glam makeup of your choice, but make sure to start off with less product and continue to apply more if needed.

Create a smokey-eye by using dark eyeshadow and add some false lashes. Use the same dark eye shadow to drag it down your eyes and the sides of the nose and the lower eye shadow line as well.

Once your glam makeup look is done, use liquid eyeliner to draw symbols going across your forehead. Make 3 rows.

Enchantress has many tattoos on her body; therefore, Carli does a tutorial on how to draw those using the same liquid eyeliner.

For the tattoo above her belly button, she uses a temporary tattoo found in store.

Use the liquid eyeliner to draw more symbols on the cheeks. To create a dirty face look, blend black eyeshadow where you would contour your face.

You can add more to the side of your nose if needed as well as temples. You can put on colored contacts for the full look.

 

DEMON – PULLED UP SKIN HALLOWEEN MAKEUP TUTORIAL BY NIKKIE TUTORIALS

This Halloween look is guaranteed to freak people out. It’s a mix of demon underneath your skin or Deadpool.

The face actually looks like it is being stretched or pulled. It has a smidge of special FX makeup involved to trick everyone.

You can also see this look as a possessed male or female that when their faces
are pulled up, you can find the demon underneath the skin.

It is definitely creepy and is much more challenging than the looks mentioned above. You can use a white colored eye contact on the red side for a better look.

 

CHUCKY INSPIRED BODY PAINTING ILLUSION BY KIKA STUDIO

Mirjana Kika is a very talented makeup and body artist that creates some crazy illusions that will make you freak out.

All her videos are worth checking out, but it will take a lot of practice and hours to pull off something like this look.

If you feel like you can mimic this look or know someone who can, please do!

This look is awesome for both males and females. Guaranteed to scare people on the streets and online!

In this look, she used red, white, and black paint on the face. She used far more colors from her neck down to paint Chucky’s clothes.
