How to do easy guy Halloween makeup ideas

Choose from our list of simple Halloween makeup ideas that will help you get into the spirit. From retro hued brows to vibrant lip colors in bold hues - you'll find something perfect for any occasion!

1. Black and White Eye makeup

To provide an extra level of sophistication, consider incorporating a monochromatic theme for an eye makeup look.

For our illustration, we've gone with a pair of black eyes set against a sophisticated white background. 

To create an intriguing contrast between black and white, try using colorless shadows like pink or blue as accents within your eyeliner or along the perimeter of your lashes.

2. Simply bold eyes

Who doesn't love a cool, bold makeup look? If you're looking for something nonchalant but still edgy-looking, try out this quick and easy tutorial on how to create an evening eye - just like the pros!

To achieve this effect, all you need is a light base with mascara and some black eyeliner. In the center of your eye apply a tiny dot; then brush over it using a clean fingertip in order to intensify its impact. Then let the color fade back into its naturally pearly state by removing any last traces of product with a gentle pat-patpad method.

3. The ultimate jaw-breaker look

This is the quintessential Halloween look for men. With charcoal gray lips and a black cat eye, this makeup is striking yet subtle; it's also perfect for keeping in tune with your costume!

Are you seeking an edgy yet sophisticated look for Halloween? This iteration of classic beauty might just do the trick.

Begin by priming your face with a creamy concealer that matches your skin tone perfectly. Apply it to the under-eye area (if applicable) and any discolored areas on your face such as spots or blemishes. 

Then set the foundation with a powder that gives off a matte finish; if you'd like something more luminous apply some translucent powder atop it until desired results are achieved. 

Finish out your look with some mascara to emphasize any eyes while adding volume; then utilize a tinted lip balm to add color dimension to your pout.

5. The perfect vampire pout

Let's be honest, vampire makeup is a staple for Halloween. Why not amp up the look with an iconic pout?

Begin by exfoliating and moisturizing your skin, then utilize a foundation that matches your complexion flawlessly. From there, you can use any of your favorite products like gel eyeliner or black kohl pencil to define those cupid's bow lips of yours!

6. Simple black smokey eyes

Black smokey eyes can be striking, especially if you pair them with a bold lip and chic brows. If your hair is shorter on top of that, you can simply pull it up into a bun for an ultra-chic look!

For maximum impact, try using a black gel liner to create intense definition around the upper lid and lower lash line - then stencil in some cat-eye style or geometric designs. For those who prefer to keep their looks elegant and effortless, use a simple shade like Prussian blue or plum to complement your mascara and eye shadow base.

7. How to do a chameleon eye look for Halloween

The chameleon eye is a simple and effortless way to enliven your look for Halloween. Investing in makeup or simply enhancing the color of your eyes can make for an instantly captivating look!

Begin by gently sweeping on a creamy brown shade into the crease of your eyelids. Apply a second layer of this color along with a soft black liner, creating an alluring cat-eye shape within seconds! If desired, complete it off by smoothly blending away any harsh edges with a sponge applicator.
