Naturally, we usually look to Instagram or youtube beauty blogs to find some amazing Halloween makeup ideas so here are a few our favorites for Halloween 2020!

Halloween Makeup Tutorials 2019

CELESTIAL | STARRY NIGHT SKY

Spacing on how to dress up for Halloween this year? How about some dangerously glamorous, celestial/galaxy inspired makeup? Both professional and amateur makeup artists have been covering their faces with constellations, galaxies and planets and the results are out-of-this-world beautiful.

The idea is to dust the middle of your face (from your brow bones to your eyes to the bridge of your nose) with purple, blue, and pink eye shadows (try the shimmer-filled try using our bombshell & glitter eyeshadow palettes) to look like space. Then, you draw stars along your cheeks with white liquid eye liner!

OPTICAL ILLUSION MAKEUP

Local, Vancouver based makeup artist Mimi Choi is a fave of ours. Her amazing portfolio of work speaks for itself. Over the last few years she has gain international recognition for her stunning masterpieces and her facial transformations has continued to grow, with each new look showcasing her expert artistry and limitless imagination.

From crazy contortions to trippy textures, Choi’s trompe-l’œil looks are sure to make you do a double-take. Using a range of liquid eyeliners, eye shadows, lipsticks, and body paint, Choi’s clever creations are often inspired by surrealist artists and photographers.
