- Lipstick
- White setting/translucent powder

- Bronzer
80’s rocker makeup
1. Apply highlight
Apply a lot of highlight to your cheekbones, because you want to glow. Also, add a little bit to your nose and cupid’s bow.
2. Create a brown and gold smokey eye
Using a deep brown and bronzy gold eyeshadow, give yourself a dark smokey eye.
3. Apply liner
Line the top and bottom of your eye with a black pencil liner.
4. Smoke out your liner with eyeshadow
Smoke out the area above and below your eyelid with the same brown eyeshadow you used on your lids.
5. Apply mascara
Apply 2-3 coats of mascara to your eyelashes.
6. Draw a star on your cheekbone
Using your pencil liner, draw a tiny star on your upper cheekbone. Top it with a liquid liner.
7. Apply red lipstick
Apply a bold red lipstick.
A trick to avoid getting lipstick on your teeth is to pop your index finger in your mouth.
Any lipstick that will end up on your finger instead.
8. French braid your hair
Throw two French braids into your hair and secure them with a tiny elastic at the end.
This is a great option for someone who has a last-minute party to go to.
9. Put on the outfit
For the outfit, I went with this cool Rolling Stones t-shirt, a choker, and a black bandana around my head.
Roll up your sleeves and you’re good to go!
This costume totally rocks! What do you think?
Easy ice queen makeup
1. Put your hair in a messy bun
Pull your hair up into a tight, messy bun. Secure it with an elastic, and spray it down with some hair spray. Comb it down.
2. Apply white setting powder
Apply white setting powder all over your face. You want to look more pale than normal.
3. Highlight your cheekbones
Give yourself some very, very highlighted cheekbones.
4. Apply translucent powder to your eyelids
Apply the same white translucent powder on your eyelids, all the up to your brow bone. Use a rose gold highlight on your lid as well.
5. Line your eyelids
Line your eyelids with a frosty, light pink cream eyeshadow.
6. Frost your eyebrows
Use the same product to frost your eyebrows. Brush it in with a comb and your finger so it sets.
7. Apply nail stickers
Apply silver nail stickers to your forehead.
8. Apply mascara
Apply a couple of coats of mascara to your lashes.
9. Apply the cream shadow
Apply more of the cream shadow underneath your eyes and to your lips to give you a frosty look.
10. Put on the outfit
For the outfit, I’m wearing a fur vest and these gorgeous ice-blue earrings.
That completes the look! This ice queen makeup was pretty simple, right?
Scarecrow makeup
1. Apply bronzer
Apply bronzer around your face and neck to give yourself a little glow.

Use a pink eyeshadow to smoke out your eye a little bit.

Line your upper and lower lash lines with a black pencil liner.

Draw a few extended lashes using liquid eyeliner.
7. Draw a circle on your nose and cheekbones
Fill in a small circle on the tip of your nose and your cheekbones with a pink liquid lipstick.

9. Darken your eyeshadow
Apply brown eyeshadow tones to make your eyes a bit darker.
10. Apply mascara
Put a couple of coats of mascara on your top and bottom lashes.

Use the black eyeliner pencil to draw patch marks around the circles. Draw a couple of smile lines and patch those up as well.

I decided to curl four sections of my hair, and then I brushed them out.
13. Put on your outfit
For the outfit, I threw on one of my favorite flannels and a floppy hat since.
