25 Halloween beauty looks you should try

Created by makeup artist Leanne Cooper, this Harley Quinn makeup look can be re-created with minimal beauty products. Simply apply red eye shadow to one eye, and blue eye shadow to the other.

For the finishing touches, smudge a classic red lipstick past your mouth to create a cartoonish smile, and create fake face tattoos using black liquid eyeliner.

It's pretty common for people to throw on some ears and call themselves Minnie Mouse on Halloween, but makeup artist Madison Bozarth created a glam version of the classic Disney character.

For this look, use a black gel liner to draw small Mickey ears on your eyelids. You can go simple with the rest of your face makeup, but add a bold red lip to tie everything together.

Don't worry if you don't have time to pick up a costume this year. Makeup artist Saige Allison created this Spider-Man look that can be achieved almost entirely with face paint.

Makeup artist Jessica Howes put her own spin on the traditional fairy Halloween costume by wearing rainbow face makeup.

To re-create this look, brush any brightly-colored eye shadow across your lids and lightly down your nose. Use a white gel eyeliner to create dots around your eyes, and finish the look with a shiny nude lip color.

Wonder Woman is often one of the most popular Halloween costumes each year, but that shouldn't stop you from dressing as her. If you want to make your outfit stand out, follow the lead of makeup artist Joann Cruz.

To re-create her Wonder Woman-inspired beauty look, draw lines across your face with a liquid eyeliner pen. Once your face is sculpted to look like a comic character, use some golden face paint to create your crown, and pull it all together with a matte burgundy lipstick.

Makeup artist Emma Gooding cleverly used a classic smoky eye to create spiders on each side of her face.

If you'd like to try this look at home, use an eyeliner pencil in any color to draw eight legs stemming from each eye. To make it extra bold, pair a dark lip liner with a lighter lipstick to create an ombré effect.

This Halloween, take some inspiration from makeup artist Anastasia Vassiljeva and use makeup to show off your zodiac sign.

Of course, the zodiac you choose will change how you re-create this look, but for the best results, choose colors and styles that represent your personality.

Whether you have to work on Halloween, or you just don't feel like wearing an elaborate costume, makeup artist Emily Mulgrew has the perfect solution for you.

"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" has the potential to inspire tons of Halloween costumes, but makeup enthusiast Ellie Addis found particular inspiration in the bubblegum-chewing Violet.

Regardless of what space-inspired costume you'd like to wear this Halloween, makeup artist Phumudzo Mudau has got you covered.

Makeup enthusiast Abby Collier created a deer-inspired makeup look that's perfect to wear on Halloween.

Makeup enthusiast Kaitlyn Belin created a look that puts a pink glam twist on the traditional clown costume. To wear this look, simply brush pink eye shadow on your forehead down to your checks in a C-motion.

Ariana Grande is known for her signature high ponytail, but she changed things up for the release of her single "No Tears Left to Cry." Makeup enthusiast and cosplayer Kendra Davis not only perfectly replicated her low pony, but also matched the rainbow on Grande's face.

To re-create Davis' Grande-inspired look, simply use body paint to create a rainbow across your face, and enhance it with winged liner and a subtle lip gloss.

Dressing as a witch may seem like a tired choice, but makeup artist Sophie Sieh created an autumnal witch look that is more glam than wicked. The best part is that you can easily replicate this look by making use of pumpkin-colored shadows, matching blush, and winged liner.

Created by makeup artist Nia Mulan, this makeup look will give you the perfect excuse to sing your favorite '90s songs all Halloween night.

There's no doubt that "Riverdale" character costumes have become popular over the years. If you want to take part in the craze — and particularly want to dress as Cheryl Blossom — check out this look from makeup artist Alina Shayk.

Tons of people dress as their favorite superheroes on Halloween, but this look created by artist Melanie Wilkinson might make you forget about them and dress as Captain America instead.

Disney princess costumes are always popular on Halloween, but makeup artist Cassie Wells took her "Little Mermaid"-themed look to the next level with spot-on makeup.
