There’s a lot of things to enjoy during the Halloween season: candy, scary movies, hayrides, and who could forget about pumpkin patches. But the single best part of the holiday is having the excuse to dress up in the craziest costume you can find. Just because your costume is really far out there doesn’t exclude you from experimenting with pretty and fun beauty products, though. Whether you’re dressing up as a ghost, a witch, or a princess, these Halloween beauty essentials are sure to complete your look (You can even wear some of these items to celebrate the holiday before it arrives!).
Looks So Natural Lash Collection by Kiss
Never worn falsies before? No worries. These lashes from Kiss are perfect for beginners because they’re so inexpensive. Don’t let the price fool you, though; these lashes come in a variety of impressive shapes and lengths, from full and flirty to demure and pretty. With such a wide range available you’re to find a pair to suit your costume.
imPRESS Manicure
These artificial nails are perfect for completing any costume. There’s no glue required, no wait time for them to dry, and they can be removed easily. Each set comes with 24 nails in 12 sizes, a prep pad, and a manicure stick. Plus, there are tons of great designs to choose from, including some inspired by the fall.
Claire’s Water-Transfer Face Tattoo
If you’ve looked at Instagram or Pinterest lately then you’ve probably seen hundreds of brilliant makeup looks for Halloween. We can’t all be makeup pros, however, so for the non-artists there are temporary face tattoos. These ingenious gems from Claire’s work like regular temporary tattoos. Simply apply the image to a clean, dry face, press the transfer with a damp sponge or washcloth, peel away the paper and voilà! You’ve got a non-makeup masterpiece!
Redken Color Rebel
If you’ve always wanted to experiment with your hair color but never had the courage before, Halloween is your chance! This temporary color from Redken Color Rebel is more vibrant than hair chalk, but it washes out after two shampoos. The sponge applicator makes it easy to apply the product where you want it, and the formula won’t smudge on your costume. Choose a vibrant red, pink, or purple or go natural with blonde or brunette locks.
Any Vampy Lip Color
Unless you’re dressing up as a princess, ditch the nude, pink, and cherry red tones for deep purples, berries, and even black when you dress up this year. Even if you were planning on donning a fairy, light-colored costume, take it to the dark side with a smokey eye and dark lipstick. You’re sure to turn heads with your half-evil-half-good look.
