This simple Halloween makeup look will have you transforming into your favourite doll in no time. Just remember to get your blonde wig, pink dress and matching accessories. But if you need help, here are some best Barbie outfits to help you attain that look for Halloween this 2023!

How to create this Halloween makeup idea:

  1. Cover your face with the Etude House Face Blur Primer (available on Younfamily) and apply the MISTINE Matte Liquid Foundation (available on Mistine Official Store) with a stippling brush (available on ARTBOX OFFICIAL STORE) once it’s dry. The brush helps spread foundation across your face evenly without blending it out too much – this gives you that doll-like complexion.
  2. Hide your blemishes and lighten your dark eye circles with the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind High Coverage Liquid Concealer (available on Maybelline Official Store)
  3. Apply the BANILA CO Loose Powder (available on Banila Co Official Store) to your face to help everything set. It’s best to use a powder puff (available on ponyeffect_official.sg) for this to ensure the rest of your makeup stays intact.
  4. Use a neutral brown shade from the BYS Eyeshadow Palette (available on Strawberrynet SG Official Store) to contour your nose so it’s as small as Barbie’s. Lightly apply the powder down the sides of your nose bridge, all the way to the tip.

  6. Highlight the inner corner of your eyes and your brow bone with some matte white eyeshadow from the Makeup Revolution Forever Flawless Eyeshadow Palette (available on KONVY_Official Shop). Make sure to blend the pigment on the inner corners towards the blue that’s already on your eyelids.
  7. Line the area above the crease with some hot pink eyeshadow, bringing it towards the outer corners and creating a sort of eyeliner look. Bring that outer edge down to touch your waterline. Feel free to go back in with more eyeshadow to make it more pigmented.
  8. Outline the crease with a dark blue eyeshadow, or simply any other colour you prefer. Remember to line your lower lash line and eyelids for a more Barbie-esque look!
  9. Line your waterline with some white eyeliner and put on some glamorous false eyelashes on both your upper and lower lash lines
  10. Apply a generous amount of pink blush from the Dasique Berry Smoothie Blending Mood Cheek (available on Tsupply Official Store) onto the apples of your cheeks. 
  11. Use the Flower Knows Circus Collection Grape Jam Lipstick (available on Yasuya Official Shop) to pull together the entire hot pink look that’s iconic to Barbie.
  12. Line your lips with concealer, making sure the edges are as sharp as possible while blending them into your skin. This will leave your lips looking absolutely defined and flawless! Just remember to apply some loose powder to help the concealer set. 
  13. Apply some hot pink DR.TWL Lip Plumper Gloss (available on DrTWL Dermaceuticals Official Store) to amp up the shine factor and you’re done!

Wednesday Addams definitely got everyone shookt this 2023, so it wouldn’t be right if we failed to include a simple Halloween makeup idea to look like her.

That’s one scene we won’t forget! With smoky eyeshadow, a gaunt face and distinct jawlines, we’re sure this easy Wednesday Addams Halloween makeup look will have you turning heads in Singapore!

How to create this Halloween makeup idea:

  5. Using a dark brown shade in the None Other Than Me Eyeshadow Palette (available on Mandom Official Store), swipe a layer of eyeshadow across your lids and waterline area. Then, get a warm brown eyeshadow and add this to the upper parts of your lids. And remember to blend, blend, blend! 
  6. Line your waterline with the Etude House Beige Super Slim Proof Pencil Liner (available on Younfamily). And use the black Flortte X Mikko Wink Liquid Eyeliner (available on The Colorist Malaysia) to draw a winged liner look. 
  7. Apply a little black eyeshadow to your waterline, blending it out so it creates a smoky effect. 
  8. Emphasise the inner and outer corners of your eyes with some brown Etude House Oh m’Eye Line Liquid Eyeliner (available on Younfamily).
  9. Use the SISTERANN Smart Powerproof Mascara (available on SISTERANN SINGAPORE) and create some volume with your upper and lower lashes. You can also use your black liquid eyeliner to draw some false lower lashes. 
  10. Draw your brows with the BENEFIT Brow Microfilling Pen (available on Strawberrynet SG Official Store), creating a thick and straighter look. For more “volume”, draw on some brow hair with liquid liners.
  11. Line your cupid’s bow with the PERIPERA Wine Nude Ink Velvet Lip Liner (available on Clubclio_official), making sure the angles are emphasised while creating a sharp look. Then, go in with your favourite dark red lipstick – something similar to the Giorgio Armani Rouge D’Armani (available on Strawberrynet SG Official Store).

Here’s an important tip to know before you start working on your Halloween makeup. While the spooky makeup look isn’t about looking clean or flawless, the last thing you’d want is your makeup to end up blotchy, smudged or creased before the Halloween party is over. 

To prevent this scary scenario from happening, start by prepping your skin properly before applying your makeup. It’s important to cleanse, exfoliate and moisturise to keep your skin hydrated and give you a radiant complexion. Primer is also an important step in ensuring the longevity of your Halloween makeup. Another simple trick to make your Halloween makeup last longer is to use makeup with a smudge-proof formula! Last but not least, set your look with a setting spray or powder – and be generous with it!
