Behold: 40 Halloween Eye Makeup Looks That Don't Require a Costume

My favorite time of year is officially upon us: Halloween (or, more officially, Spooky Szn). Aside from finally bringing cooler weather, it also means my feed will be dominated by epic Halloween makeup for all of October. To be honest, I usually have little-to-no motivation to go all out with a Halloween costume (so much work! So little photographic evidence!), especially when recent Halloween seasons have been looking a whole lot different and more distant than in the past. So I was truly thrilled to find that Halloween eye makeup is trending this year, which is basically the much more chill younger sibling of Halloween costumes. Y

up, you can skip the inflatable costume or fake vampire teeth this year and instead create an entire Halloween ~lewk~ with some really freaking cool eye makeup. It’s basically a full Halloween costume wrapped up into a much smaller package, made possible by lots of liquid eyeliner and shimmery eyeshadows. So if you don’t love covering your whole face and like wearing your regular clothes on October 31, welcome to your favorite Halloween hack. Need some examples? I gotchu. Allow me to present to you 40 of the coolest and prettiest Halloween eye makeup looks—including a seamlessly blended smokey eye and some Frankenstein eyeshadow—to start practicing, like, now.
