5 Snapchat Filter Halloween Costumes You Should Rock IRL
Every time you put that sparkly butterfly filter on your selfie, you wonder why you can't look like a glowing golden goddess every day. So rock your favorite Snapchat filter IRL this Halloween for a super easy, super cute costume worthy of a 180-second-long story.
Step 1: Apply deep blue face paint around the outside of your face, then add a lavender shade to the center of your face. Blend the two together to create an ombré effect.
Step 2: Use white face paint to add some major highlighting to your cheeks, nose, and chin, just like in the filter.
Step 3: Grab a black liquid liner and wing it out along your top lashes. Then, use a small brush to apply a thin line of white face paint under your lower lashes (but NOT along your waterline).
Step 4: Get 17-year-old Jaqui's brow game, by using a black eyeshadow to fill them in, then apply two lines of white dots above them with your white face paint.

Step 5: Stick some pearl stickers from a craft store into your hair to mimic the galaxy effect of the filter, then swipe on a pretty magenta lip to complete the look.
Shopping List:
Step 1: Size a length of wire to fit your head, then twist the ends together to make a crown. Wrap mini twinkle lights around the crown, keeping the battery pack in the back.
Step 2: Paint some craft butterflies yellow and sprinkle on gold glitter while they dry. Use the wire attached to the butterflies to secure them to the front of your crown.
Step 3: Dust the eff out of your cheeks, nose, forehead, cupid's bow, and chin with a super shimmery, gold-toned highlighter to get that ~sparkly~ butterfly filter look.
