We’ve had our season of Margot Robbie’s Suicide Squad Harley Quinn (who could forget the blue and red-dipped hairdos of that year) and this season we’re switching it up with Lady Gaga’s demure yet chilling depiction. All the components of her makeup look are nothing out of the ordinary, but by going in with different techniques and application methods, you create a spook-tacular party-ready costume.

Glinda

If you’re Team Glinda this Halloween, you’re indulging in soft pinks, sparkles and a whimsical aesthetic to keep up with the Good Witch moniker. Ariana Grande’s Glinda keeps her look bright and sophisticated, the opposite side of the coin to her wicked counterpart.

Slick on the Fwee 3D Voluming Gloss in Vanilla 30% for Glinda’s soft, glossy lip to complete your look.

Elphaba

Wicked follows the journey of the misunderstood Elphaba and her transformation into the Wicked Witch of the West. It’s not just her green skin that sets her apart from the crowd; her clean, fuss-free appearance suggests her underlying strength that leads to her ascension to power.

MISSHA - 4D Mascara

We’re utterly bewitched by Elphaba’s fanned-out lashes, and aiming for that voluminous look with the MISSHA 4D Mascara.

Muzigae Mansion - Moire Palette

To complement the lashes, shade the eyes with the Muzigae Mansion Moire Palette in 01 Greenery. If going full green for Halloween is not in your plans, the green tones in the palette will more than suffice for the effect.

ETUDE - Oh M' Eye Line

There’s an innocence to Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba as an underdog student navigating Shiz College. It’s the finishing touch of freckles, created with the ETUDE Oh M' Eye Line in Oh My Brown, that captures this aspect.

When you combine a classic cartoon character with one of today’s leading popstars, you get a totally fresh take on a beloved Halloween look. Olivia Rodrigo’s Betty Boop is edgy and sultry, highlighting wispy long lashes, the signature red pout, and well-defined curls. It’s a last-minute look you can pull together without it looking last minute.

A couple coats of the Judydoll 3D Curling Eyelash Iron Mascara Curly in 01 Black will get your lashes lengthened and skimming the edge of your brow bone, just like Olivia.

Romand - Zero Matte Lipstick

Betty Boop’s never seen without her scarlet pout, and the Romand Zero Matte Lipstick in 18 Tanning Red is a close shade match. Shade in your lips within your lip line to keep the look crisp and sleek.

To nail Moo Deng’s glassy sheen, the first step is to highlight with a bright white shadow. You’ll find this shade in the FlowerKnows Swan Ballet Six-Color Eyeshadow Palette in 02 Black Swan, complete with moody gray tones to create a stronger contrast.
