Next you will have to smudge the same using your fingers for a grungy look. Further definition can be imparted to your eyes by feathering your eyeliner along the socket line and then blending it out. It is advisable to opt for cream eyeshadow as it is easier to smudge the same with your finger or an eyeshadow brush. You also need to be cautious about using two different brushes for the dual hues of blue and red.

You can even apply your go-to eyeshadow and mascara if you wish to do the same although there is no compulsion behind it.
Next you will have to have to dab on some brown hued eyeshadow beneath the white liner for making your eyes seem freakishly huge by creating a faux lash line. Your foundation and concealer has to be blended in the usual manner although you can skip the chin portion if you wish since a large rainbow is soon going to be painted on the same. A dash of pink can be added to your cheeks and nose for imparting that rosy glow and brightening up your complexion. Pink lipstick has to be applied only on the top portion of your lips while rainbow lines have to painted down your neck starting from the bottom lip.
You can even add clouds at the very bottom using a tiny brush and paint some finishing rainbow dots as well as other intricate details. White liquid liner can be used for adding the twinkly stars as you get ready to puke colors on everyone.

You need to start with this Halloween eye makeup by creating large circular smoky eye using a cream based eyeshadow spanning both under the lower lash line and over the lid.

The lines can be blended in a downwards motion using a flat brush unless it fades out evenly. A reflective eyeshadow has to be patted over the shading for maintaining the color strength in all those places where the shading is darker.
An extreme feline flick can be drawn along the top lash line using a gel or liquid eye liner which has to be connected with the lower lash line. You can create a sharp statement lip by applying some black cream eyeshadow and finishing it off by patting some shimmery eyeshadow at the centre of your lips.
Cheetah
HOW TO CREATE THIS LOOK?
You need to start with a dry and clean face for applying some primer which can help your face paint in staying intact throughout the evening. You should also allow a resting time of few minutes in between application of the primer and face paint so that the same can set properly. While proceeding with the face paint, you need to choose a background color and create an even layer of the same over your face using a sponge. It is advisable to choose a light color base as that can be shaded later on as per your requirements. You need to start from the center of your face and slowly work outwards.
On having a light and even color all over your face, you can blend in a white paint for lightening certain areas for that added highlight. Requisite details and markings can be added using darker coloured paints. When it comes to nailing the Halloween eye makeup, it is advisable to use black eyeliner. You can twist the brush for creating thinner lines for best results. Alternatively, you can also push down the brush for achieving thicker lines. Adding some stand-out eyelashes can help in bringing your eyes to the focal point of attraction. Some glitter can also be used for a dash of glamour.
