1.This look is like an angel meets skeleton – the pale, ghostlyfacial and lip makeup pairs with an unusual green eyeshadow andsimple black lining for a minimal, soft, and memorable look.
2.Not committed to going full skull? This half look extends onto theneck and incorporates amber bejeweling around sparkly gold shadow,blue detailing, and alluring false lashes to finish it off.
3. A deep gold metallic shadow and a forehead tarantula make this sugar skull look one of our top pics. The gold makes your eyes pop, and pairs especially well with the netting face lace detail.

5. This look lets the color blue shine instead of white, with the color dominating eye, lip and chin detailing. It’s not as frightening as some other skull looks, and even features a pretty blue flower on the chin.

7. This is a full mask inspired by a half mask. By combining two different looks, you can let your eyebrow stenciling shine, while having the dark side engulf you eye in a dramatic gold. He lips have a burgundy ombre effect going on, while a white cobweb with red points completes the look.
