Friendly animals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dressing up as a cute furry (or scaly) friend has always been an easy Halloween costume! Most animal characters can be pulled together quickly with color-coordinating clothing and colorful face paint. For example, if you want to be a tiger, dress in orange and black. To dress as a reptile, grab a green, brown, and yellow outfit. Top it off with some creative animal-inspired face designs, and you’re all set!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scary characters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’d rather be creepy than cute this year, there are many super-easy Halloween face paint ideas to try! Stock up on green paint for witches and Frankenstein, or start with black and white face paint for skulls and vampires. If you’re throwing a Day of the Dead<\/a> or Halloween party, sugar skulls can be a creative mix between beautiful and frightful. Or, stick with the classics, like zombies or ghosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Superheroes and princesses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes it’s more fun to dress up as your favorite fictional character instead of trying to scare your friends! Transforming into well-known superheroes like The Hulk, Captain America, or Spider-Man is easy with a face painting kit. Other easy choices include pirates or mermaids, which are great for themed group costumes! You can also try some glittery Halloween face-painting ideas and become a butterfly, princess, or fairy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
