Here are the cutest Halloween makeup ideas I’ve seen that you should definitely try!

This post is all about the cutest Halloween makeup to do this year.

The Cutest Halloween Makeup Ideas

1. Skeleton Makeup

This is a makeup idea that you could revolve your whole costume around! Really all you’d have to do is the makeup and then wear some black clothes and everyone would know what you are.

2. Clown Makeup

Clown makeup like this would be so easy to recreate, and it’s so cute! This makeup is great because you could wear pretty much anything with it.

3. Blood Drip Eyeliner

If you’re wanting to do some spooky makeup for Halloween, this idea is so good. To recreate this look, you’d need some red eyeshadow and fake blood.

4. Cheetah Makeup

This makeup would make for a super easy costume, especially if you have some leopard/ cheetah print clothing to go along with it!

5. Spider Web Eye Makeup

Spider web eye makeup like this would be SO cute for Halloween. It wouldn’t be too hard to recreate if you can get the spider web pattern down!

6. Sparkly Skull Makeup

I’ve seen so many sparkly skull looks like this on TikTok, and they always hit. It’s the perfect combo of spooky and glamorous.

7. Vampire Makeup

I am obsessed with this makeup look! This is perfect if you still wanna look hot and sexy for your costume while being a little spooky. Her eye makeup looks so good.

8. Coraline Makeup

If you’re someone like me who LOVES Coraline, this makeup look would be amazing for Halloween. To recreate this look, you’d need a blue wig and some big buttons for the eye. You could do other characters from the movie as well!

9. Fairy Makeup

A makeup look like this would be so pretty to do for a fairy costume! The butterflies in their hair are gorgeous as well.

10. Werewolf Makeup

This is another makeup look you could do with pretty much any kind of outfit! As long as you have the makeup, people should be able to tell you’re a werewolf. It’s perfect if you don’t have a costume to wear!

11. Butterfly Makeup

I did this makeup look for Halloween a few years ago when I dressed up as a monarch butterfly! It wasn’t too hard to do, and I got SO many compliments.

12. Joker Makeup

This is another look that wouldn’t be too hard to recreate and that everyone would be able to recognize even if you didn’t have a costume. You would need some green temporary color hair spray.

13. Mushroom Makeup

I love this makeup look! It’s so adorable. You could do this and be a mushroom, or you could do it to go along with a fairy costume!

14. Bat Makeup

This is another Halloween themed makeup idea that would be good to do! You could do this just for fun on Halloween, or it could go with a witchy costume!

15. Heart Makeup

A makeup look like this would be cute if you’re dressing up as the Queen of Hearts! You could also go in different directions with it. If you accentuated the nose and mouth a little, it could also be a cute clown look!

16. Spider Makeup

This is another cute Halloween makeup idea that doesn’t have to go with a costume. It definitely doesn’t have to be as elaborate as this with all the shading and such, but a spider eye look like this would be so impressive.

17. Witch Makeup

This is another cute makeup idea if you’re doing a witchy costume! I definitely don’t recommend doing symbols like the forehead one on your face unless you know what they mean, though. A star and moon makeup look like this would be good!

18. Rainbow Makeup

This makeup is SO CUTE! It would be adorable paired with a cloud costume. You could also just be a rainbow and wear colorful clothes to go along with it. I might try the cloud costume idea with this makeup myself because I think it’d be so cute.
