Trick or Treat: Halloween Makeup

Halloween is quickly approaching…

Do you know what you want to dress up as?

This is the first year in a long time that I’ll be wearing a costume and I’m very excited. It will either be funny and clever or a bit on the sexy side.  I’m not sure what I want to be yet (I work better under pressure, trust me!), but I know for sure it will include wearing makeup!

Whatever you choose to dress up as, here are some fun Halloween treats  for your makeup bag to help you complete your ensemble!

• Sephora makes it super easy for you by offering these rad-beauty-in-a-box kits: Try the Vegas or Peacock kit, or go classic with the Vampire kit.    ($25-65)
• Light a lush, fall-smelling candle like Michael Aram’s acorn candle. (Barney’s, $60)
• Go get your glitter on with Mac’s Glitter.   (Macy’s, $20)
• Munch on NYC’s Eleni’s Bakery super-cute Halloween sugar cookies while applying your makeup~ before lipstick of course!  (Eleni’s Online, $25-60).   Then brush your teeth with toothpaste by Tom’s of Maine.  (Target, $5)
• Channel your inner Halle Barry and create come-hither cat woman eyes. My pick? L’Oreal Lineur Intense liquid liner (Walgreens, $8)
• Paint claws, er- nails, with O.P.I.’s Go Goth mini polish set!   (Amazon, $12)
• Shu Uemura’s Feather False lashes will make you want to bat your eyes.    (Shu Uemura Online, $12-65)
• And finally, don’t forget to remove all of your makeup after your night of mischief.  Almay’s Makeup Remover Towelettes should do the trick! (Walgreens, $6)
