Last-Minute Halloween Makeup Ideas for Women

Get a creepy puppet look with big features, a puppet mouth and eyes, and strings on your arms and legs. Wear a puppeteer’s costume or a dark, spooky dress.

To get the Creepy Puppet makeup look from the image, follow these steps:

  1. Pale, Porcelain-Like Base:
    • Apply MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation in NW10 to achieve a pale, matte doll-like complexion. Use a foundation a few shades lighter than your skin. This will make your skin look smooth and almost lifeless. Blend it well over your face, neck, and ears for an even look.
  2. Hollow, Dark Eyes:
    • Apply Urban Decay Naked Basics Eyeshadow Palette in the shade Crave (black) or Faint (dark brown) around your eyes. Blend it in a circular motion for a hollow look. Extend the shadow towards the temples and under the lower lash line for an exaggerated effect.
    • For the lips, use MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in Diva, a deep red or maroon lipstick. Make your lips slightly smaller than usual for a creepy doll smile. You can also draw thin, black lines from the corners of your lips using NYX Professional Makeup Epic Ink Liner for a “stitched mouth” effect.
  3. Exaggerated Doll-Like Features:
    • Create big, drawn-on eyebrows with a black pencil or liquid liner. Arch them higher than your natural brow line for a doll-like look.
    • For the lips, use a deep red or maroon lipstick. Make your lips slightly smaller than usual for a creepy doll smile. You can also draw thin, black lines from the corners of your lips for a “stitched mouth” effect.
  4. Cracks and Creases:
    • Use a thin brush and black eyeliner or face paint to create cracks on your face. Make it look like a broken porcelain doll. Focus on the forehead, cheeks, and around the eyes. Draw thin, jagged lines for a shattered porcelain effect.
  5. Shadow and Contour:
    • Lightly contour the hollows of your cheeks with Kevyn Aucoin The Sculpting Powder in Medium. Blend it softly for a gaunt look. The contour should make your features sharp and hollow.
  6. Finishing Touches:
    • To finish the look, style your hair using L’Oreal Paris Studio Line Overworked Hair Putty in a disheveled way. It should look like the puppet has been left alone for years. A vintage or Victorian-style dress or shirt can add to the creepy look. If you have thin strings, attach them to your arms and legs to look like a marionette.
