Given that a Halloween party might not be on the schedule list this year, it may seem like a waste of time or money to invest in a costume. That may be the case, but it doesn't mean you can't still dress up and have fun.
Whether you choose to go for a sweet and sassy costume or something straight of a horror movie, no outfit would be complete without an accompanying beauty look. In many cases, a full face of makeup can even replace an elaborate getup, letting you keep the rest of your look simple and comfortable.
If you're still on the hunt for some last-minute costume inspiration, we've gathered nine of the coolest Halloween makeup looks you can try at home this year.
Fancy Skull Look
An easy look for beginners, with the key face products here being pearl stickers and face paint. Add a pearl necklace and white hair wig to complete the outfit. False eyelashes are another addition to make your makeup pop.

Joker Inspired Look
A simple take on the iconic Joker character, yet still a fun beauty look. Here, all you need is purple eyeshadow, green hair paint, red lipstick, and some face paint for the details. If you can find a green wig instead, that'll save you lots of time and you can focus on your makeup.
Recreate the look:
Batman Inspired Look
If you don't want to buy or carry a Batman or Catwoman mask, try painting it on this Halloween. It's easy and it'll save you money. Try using a gel eyeliner to create the bat outline then fill it in with face paint, and don't forget to leave room for the golden eye makeup.
