The stars have aligned with this out-of-this-world galaxy eye makeup. This intergalactic look requires minimal makeup skills and can be done in a cinch to create a spacy Halloween face mask.
Start by outlining the mask with the L’Oréal Paris Infallible The Super Slim Liquid Eyeliner.
First, draw a curvy bracket starting at each temple, curving up around your brows, and meeting at a point in the center of your forehead. Then, draw a mirror reflection of the curvy bracket below your eyes, with the point meeting at the tip of your nose. Next, fill in your mask with black face paint and then use a neon eyeliner or face paint to decorate your eye mask with some space lightning and stars.
To finish your alien eye makeup, line your bottom lash line with a neon eyeliner. Then, apply a coat of colorful mascara to your lower lashes. On your top lashes, use a dark volumizing mascara so they blend into the mask. Pair your galaxy eye mask makeup with a jet black face mask to give your eyes the full floating in deep space illusion.

Step into the makeup matrix and try a pretty pixelated eye makeup look. Pixel makeup is the low-res face look that’s been ranking high on all the beauty trend lists. With just a few steps, you can recreate this baby blue 8-bit eye makeup look.
First, prep your lids with an eyeshadow primer. Then Reach for a vibrant blue eyeshadow palette like the L'Oréal Paris Colour Rich Pocket Palette Eye Shadow in Avant Garde Azur. Choose your blues and apply the shadow to the creases of your eyelids, blending the color downward into a wing. Build and blend until you have the desired eyeshadow look.
To create the pixels, use a black liquid eyeliner to draw short dashes, in a step ladder effect around the edge of your eyeshadow wing. Then, use the eyeliner to connect the edges of the dashes and fill them in to create a box effect. To finish, grab a blue eyeliner like L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Waterproof, Up to 24HR Pencil Eyeliner in Cobalt Blue, and paint a few pixel hearts and stars across the apples of your cheeks. Spritz your face with a setting spray to lock in your look.

For a Halloween look that’s fabulous and frightening, 3D spider makeup is sure to catch the eye. This spooky beauty look features a flawless full glam face. Plus, one large hand-drawn spider that — thanks to the magic of contouring — appears to be emerging from one smokey eye. Don’t worry, this intricate spider eye makeup isn’t scary hard to create.
First, prep your face with the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Glow Lock Makeup Primer. Then, apply the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation and finish your soft glam beauty look base. To start your spider, use a black eyeshadow to create a heavy smokey eye. To intensify your eyes, line your lower lash line with a gel liner. To make the spider legs, use a liquid eyeliner to draw thin angled lines from the bottom of your eye to your chin and from the crease of your eye to your forehead.
Use the eyeliner to shape and thicken the lines. To create the 3D effect, use a small eyeshadow brush to lightly apply gray and black eyeshadow around the spider legs. Finish your spider illusion, by using a light eyeliner like the L'Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Waterproof, Up to 24HR Pencil Eyeliner in Silver to create highlights on the spider legs.
