The cat look is a Halloween classic that will never go out of style. Black cats have been a symbol of mystery and elegance since time immemorial. Start with a bold smoky eye makeup and use ESSENS black eyeliner to perfectly accentuate the look. Lightly paint the tip of the nose with black, draw a thin line from it towards the upper lip and colour the lips black for a cat`s snout effect. Finally, add a delicate mustache and cat ears – either in the form of a headband or create them from hair.
A softer version:
If you want a softer option, choose thin black lines that gently frame the eyes, and indicate the mustache with only light strokes. Highlight your lower lip with a pink liquid matte lipstick to give your makeup a softer look.
Cute, yet creepy – that’s exactly what a classic horror doll is. The base is the lightest shade of makeup applied in multiple layers for a distinct “doll” effect. Add a deep pink colour to your cheeks, perhaps using a cream lipstick, and create dark gray shadows around your eyes for a tired look. Accentuate your eyelashes with several layers of black mascara, or use fake ones to create a winking doll effect. Apply a bright red or orange shade to your lips, and finally, you can paint small cracks around your forehead or cheeks like broken porcelain.
A softer version:
Use just one layer of makeup, choose a softer pink blush shade, and less pronounced eyelashes. Even with a lighter version, the horror doll will be instantly recognisable.
With a seductive but slightly dangerous look, a woman walks in colourful layered clothing, with leather accessories and a lace garter around her thigh. You can transform into a pirate. Apply dark, warm copper or blood-red shades to your eyes - and highlight your lips with a rich lipstick. Give your skin bronzed tones and, thanks to contouring, blush and a few drawn scars, you will be the most desirable pirate on all the seas.
Tip: It is a good idea to prepare for Halloween makeup in advance. Think about what you will transform into and have all the necessary and high-quality makeup ready. For the best effect, try this makeup first a few days in advance, to practice a little. Practice makes Perfect.
Even the most perfect makeup will not stand out without healthy and hydrated skin. Therefore, do not forget about care before and after makeup. Before the transformation itself, give your skin enough hydration so that the makeup adheres better and lasts all evening. After Halloween, take the time to thoroughly remove your makeup - this will remove makeup residue and your skin will be rewarded with freshness.
And even if you end up with just a strong red lipstick, do not forget that Halloween brings the joy of being someone else for a while. Have fun and enjoy a magical, spooky atmosphere.
ESSENS wishes you a beautiful Halloween!
