Beauty Monster Mash: Our Fav Products Inspired by Classic Halloween Costumes

Oct 24, 2019

Here at the SG HQ we are really getting into the Halloween spirit. Every morning this October we rose from our graves to create spooky cute stickers, write ghoulish content and share your talented Halloween makeup looks. With the excitement for All Hallows Eve brewing around the office, we’ve started to wonder which beauty products represent each classic Halloween character the best. From face masks to lipsticks, we’ve rounded up some of your reviews to determine the best products that capture the essence of these classic monsters.

Witches

Hold on tight to your broomsticks. The green mud and wort-like exfoliating grounds of this Mask of Magnaminty by Lush will give you the perfect witchy complexion. Our Supergreaters also love Thayer’s brew of Witch Hazel Toner for a smooth and cleansed skin.

Vampires

Unless you’re a glittering specimen like Edward Cullen, vampires traditionally have human blood dripping from their chin (fresh blood is the Kool Aid of Transylvania). Take the look one step further by massaging The Ordinary’s Peeling Solution all over your face or paint your lips with Fenty’s Stunna Lip Paint in Universal Red for a classy vampy look.

Werewolves

Before you reach a cliffside to howl at the moon, be sure to apply Old Spices’ Deodorant in the scent Wolfthorn to mask any wet dog smell. Once your hair grows in with the presence of the full moon, volumize it with some of Supergreats' fave products.

Bats

Are you bat to the bone? Paint a sharp set of wings on your eyelids. Supergreaters love Kat Von D’s Tattoo Liner for wings that flap all day without a single smudge. Other favorites include e.l.f Cosmetics, Eyeko, and NYX.

Ghosts

Forget throwing a bed sheet over your head this Halloween, get into the ghostly spirit by applying a Florapy Sheet Mask over your face for some boo-tiful skin nourishment or add a few spritzes of Verb’s vanishing Ghost Oil to your hair for weightless shine.

Jack-O-Lanterns

Pumpkins are packed with a ton of gourd-geous skin nutrients, like fruit enzymes and AHAs, which increase skin cell turn over, and vitamins A and C, which soften the skin and boost collagen production. The SG community has loved the benefits of pumpkin in Epicuren’s Pumpkin Apple Spice Peel and Peter Thomas Roth’s Pumpkin Enzyme Mask.

Zombies

If you’re really dead(icated) to the zombie life, try Skin 1004’s Zombie Pack. This mask will wrinkle and crack, giving you the appearance of rotting flesh until you pull it off to reveal soft, supple skin underneath. Other peel-off masks including I Dew Care’s Disco Kitten, Wander Beauty’s Lift Off, and Freeman Facial’s Green Tea and Orange Blossom also give us big zombie energy (BZE).

Skeleton

Skeletons have killer bone structure—that goes without saying. Use SG’s favorite highlighters to make your cheekbones and glisten in the sun. Add some shimmer to your brow bone and collar bone to give your look some much needed life. If you’re hoping to turn back time and return to your youthful self, try some of SG’s most loved anti-aging products.
