It is a festival that has crept into the midst of our traditions and we can do little or nothing. Halloween, the American version of our All Saints’ Day, is the favorite holiday of the little ones, who see October 31 as the perfect occasion to put on a costume. Although we adults also have the bug to dress up in our bodies because of Zara’s Halloween collection.
Despite the fact that adults also want to put on a Halloween costume, it is the smallest of the house who enjoy it the most. Therefore, in addition to thinking about a good costume, it is important to take into account the Halloween makeup that we are going to do.
Although the Squid Game costume is going to be the real winner this Halloween, characters such as Katrina , a pumpkin, the traditional skull or our beloved Miguel from the movie Coco stand out in children’s makeup. Various proposals for Halloween makeup for children that adults can also wear (and we are sure they will).
Katrina or corpse bride Halloween makeup
For the base we can use a makeup with a lot of coverage and the lightest shade there is, in addition, if we use a concealer we will obtain a more compact result. To fix we can use translucent powdersfor a smooth and velvety finish.
For the eyes we resort to the most exaggerated smoke-eyes , which covers the eyebrow and the entire part of the eyecup. To give it a scarier look we set everything with reddish shadows and a dark lip color. As a more fashionable accessory, there are the maxi flower headbands to which we can apply a veil.
Sally’s Halloween Makeup from ‘Nightmares Before Christmas’
The female character created by Tim Burton is very popular among children and it is very easy to characterize her on Halloween. If we look at Sally , it is characterized by its green color, which we can achieve either with face paint of the same color, or by applying base and then shadows of this tone, big eyes and extra- long eyelashes .
To get these eyes we outline the water line with a white pencil and we can use false eyelashes . Another way, a little more complicated, is to cover the eyebrow with makeup or with false skin , typical of the characterization, and we make up what would be the basin at the height of it, filling it with blue and violet tones .
To finish, we make up the lips in reddish or orange tonesand draw the seams of the doll with liquid eyeliner.
Skull Halloween Makeup
For this simple and trendy makeup you only need three things: white concealer , eyeliner and fake blood .
With the concealer, only half of the face is covered from the nose to the chin and it is sealed very well with the translucent powder . The next step is to outline the contour of the base, for this an eyeliner in marker format is recommended , since it will be much more precise, although if you go out of line, do not worry, then you will have to blur .
For the eyes, applyblack shadow with the same brush with which you have previously blurred and define them. The lips and nose will also be black. To make the teeth , lines will be drawn in the mouth and the gaps will be filled with the same white corrector .
Fake blood can be used to suit everyone, in this case it is used on the line that delimits the middle of the face, letting it spread naturally.
Grinch Halloween makeup
The villain who intends to ruin all Christmas is also on Halloween night, it is a very original and easy proposal to do that children will love.
You just have to make up the whole face withgreen paint and outline the wrinkles that characterize the character. For a more royal finish, the perfect option is to get a Christmas costume .
Joker Halloween Makeup
To make this makeup you need green paint that will be applied to the height of the forehead and to make the eyebrows very wide, with red paint the mouth is made up making it wide and elongated. We outline everything with black eyeliner and with concealer we finalize the details.
For the eyes, we will use black shadow to create an effect of laziness. If we want the final result to be incredible, one option is to use agreen hair spray
Pumpkin Halloween makeup
It is without a doubt the quintessential Halloween makeup. The classic pumpkin has triumphed and will triumph every year for being the main element of this festival. We will only need orange paint and black eyeliner to create all the details of the pumpkin. We can complement the makeup with a pumpkin costume.
Halloween makeup by Miguel de ‘Coco’
The protagonist of the movie Coco has caused a lot of sympathy in children and adults, and it is a fully representative image of Mexican Halloween .
For this makeup we can be inspired by the skull , since Miguel turns into one when he passes into the world of the dead. We will only need to use black and white paint where appropriate and we will have a perfect makeup.
Wolf’s scratches Halloween makeupScratches
have become
the number 1 of Halloween makeup, we only need toilet paper , napkins or even cotton. We glue them with specific glue for the face and we only have to give it the shape of a wound.
With makeup base we unify the color with our skin and use reddish and black paints
to the interior, giving the sensation of having an open wound. This is just an example, but it can be done in any way and on any part of the body with the same technique and in different sizes .
