Top 5 Most Gruesome & Authentic Halloween Makeup Tutorials for 2016

Can you believe that we are less than 2 weeks away from Halloween? It feels like just yesterday we were all pumping up the AC in our cars and wearing flowing dresses to maintain a reasonable body temperature. Halloween (shockingly!) is one of my most favorite holidays. It is the one night of the year that you can dress as scary, sexy, and strange as you like and be embraced in all of your splendor. In case you feel as ill prepared as I do for this season, here are some truly incredible makeup tutorials that will inspire you to be whomever you choose this Halloween.

If you feel like you aren't up for the challenge, just give me a call or shoot me an e-mail and I will certainly help you out. Theatrical makeup is where I got my start and I have done Halloween makeup for many clients through the years--some even winning contest for their ghoulish-ness! I tend to go a bit crazy with my Halloween makeup and add in a lot of elements not typically seen on everyone. Before the times of social media, it was difficult to capture all of the gory moments of Halloween history, and we all had to rely solely on our imaginations. I encourage you to do the same! Get inspiration from films and even literature to come up with a truly unique costume this year. And when you do, please post some pictures on my Twitter or comment below because I would love to see them, Happy Haunting!
