It’s finally the time of year to play around with your makeup look. Lipstick as face paint? Why not? Gothic nails? Say no more. Whether you’ve been dying to try a deep lip or a full-on face transformation, now’s the time to get creative, and we’re going to get you inspired.
The Vampy Lip
Halloween is a great excuse to try this on-trend lip look. If you haven’t been brave enough to wear it in your day-to-day, use this opportunity to try out your darkest shades of burgundy.
For a spookier look, try dabbing the lipstick around your eyes and patting with your finger to create a corpse-like effect.

The Blood Red
Lips? Eyes? Face? Who knew lipstick could be so versatile? A blood red shade is all you need to create the goriest of looks with the least amount of effort. Last minute Halloween party? No problem – grab a red and get to work.
Use a fine brush to paint on blood droplets or for a more detailed look.

The Gothic Nail
Staying in, but want a subtle to nod to the occasion? Try a deep, gothic shade on your nails. Wearable enough to surpass the event, but eerie enough to feel like you’re taking part, at least a little.
To keep this look modern and versatile, try painting just the tip like Isabel May and keeping the rest of the nail fresh and natural.

The Opportunist
Throw out the rulebook – Halloween doesn’t mean your look has to be scary. It’s a great opportunity to go all out with bold colours; let your imagination run wild.
