Halloween 2025 promises to be a year of express creativity. No more heavy makeup or kitsch disguises: the trend is looks inspired by pop culture, with subtle visual effects and clever details. On TikTok, beauty filters directly influence real-life makeup, with holographic, mermaid or ethereal effects.
1. The minimalist vampire: a great classic revisited
A fair complexion, a cool contour, burgundy lipstick and two small drops of fake blood are enough. The secret to success in 2025? There bloody glossy mouth, inspired by “flirty vampire” looks on TikTok.
Add a little silver highlighter to the cheekbones for a “chic immortelle” effect.
2. The delicate spider: a wow effect in 10 minutes
Draw little spider legs at the corners of the eyes with precise black eyeliner, then add a touch of silver or purple eyeshadow. This makeup instantly gives a mystical side, without requiring complicated drawing.
Pro tip: use a toothpick dipped in liquid liner for ultra-fine lines.
3. The elegant skeleton: simplified version
The full skull is no longer fashionable. This year, we only draw half of the face as a skeleton, leaving the other side with normal makeup. The contrast effect seduces the networks: half-glam, half-scary.
Use a black kohl pencil for the shadows and a white eyeshadow for the reliefs: simple, graphic and effective.
4. The Dark Fairy: Mystical Beauty and Glitter
Ultra-trendy this year: the “dark fairy”. A halo of purple eyeshadow, a few rhinestones under the eyes and a veil of iridescent highlighter all over the face. This easy Halloween 2025 makeup is done with your fingers and a little glitter glue.
Add a touch of transparent gloss to modernize the look and avoid the disguise effect.
5. The black cat revisited (2025 version)
Still a classic, but sexier than ever. A line of stretched eyeliner like “XXL cat eye”, a black nose, fine mustaches and a shiny nude mouth. The detail that changes everything: a lifted look thanks to a white liner in the mucous membrane.
Easy, quick and portable, even for a professional party or Halloween afterwork.
6. The broken doll
An impressive visual effect obtained by drawing a crack on cheek with black and white pencil. Accentuate the lashes, add intense blush and bubblegum pink lipstick. Result: a perfect contrast between innocence and thrill.
This is one of the most “liked” makeup looks of 2025 on Pinterest and Reels.
7. The chic ghost: a veil of icy light
Lightly whiten the complexion with a light powder, add gray to the hollows of the cheeks and white highlighter to the highlighted areas. The tip in 2025: the spectral glow, obtained with products with bluish reflections.
A perfect look for those who want a beauty version of Halloween, without the total costume effect.
8. Mermaid makeup from the abyss
Still popular, but modernized: this year, shades of midnight blue, emerald green and mother-of-pearl are added. Pat glitter on the temples and neckline for an aquatic effect.
A makeup net or fishnet can be used as a stencil to imitate scales in seconds.
9. The express devilish look
Two strokes of red liner, a little reverse contouring and a crimson lipstick are enough. You can draw small horns in pencil or place red rhinestones above the eyebrows. Simple, graphic, viral.
It’s the perfect makeup for those who want a “modern she-devil” effect without latex or prosthetic glue.
10. The Fallen Angel (2025 Network Favorite)
Halfway between gothic and romantic, this makeup plays on contrast: pale complexion, smoky black makeup, oversized eyelashes and nude lips. Add a few white feathers or a halo of highlighter to enhance everything.
It’s the most pinned look on Pinterest this year — and probably the one that will get the most views on TikTok.
