Whether you’re searching for a cute Halloween-inspired look or something more spooky, we’ve got some easy last-minute makeup ideas for you to try this 31 October.
There are two types of people on Halloween: those who go all out, and those who just put on an easy last-minute costume and call it a day. If you’re in the second group, we get it. It’s like we want to get dressed up but can’t be bothered. And when it comes to makeup, that can be tough. Trying out complicated looks takes a lot of time and effort, and sometimes you just want a shortcut. That’s valid. So, if you suck at makeup like me or need a quick fix, check out these easy last-minute TikTok Halloween makeup looks.

Although this vampire look may require a bit more time, it’s as simple as it gets. Just draw some veins under your eyes using both black and red pencil eyeliner. Put on a red lipstick, and lastly, add fake blood onto your neck and some dripping off your lip. Contact lenses are optional.
A skull

Despite the creator labelling this as a cupid-inspired makeup look, we believe this would be great if you’re going as the Queen of Hearts this 31 October. Simply use some red eye shadow and draw little hearts around your face. Put on a nude lipstick and add a bit of translucent powder. Finish off the look by drawing a heart in the middle of your lip.
