Shecky’s

Are you afraid? You shouldn’t be! While Halloween is all about getting spooked and snarfin’ down candy (I could seriously eat an entire bag of those mini Snickers and Butterfingers), it’s the beauty booty that I love the most! If you’re a prim and proper Patty, dressing up for Halloween allows you to be someone completely different, and the beauty you use could make or break your getup. Good thing I’ve compiled my favorite makeup brands with goodies to help our looks come alive.

You really aren’t into the whole “dressing up” for Halloween thing? Okay, fine. But you can’t go bare-faced to your friend’s Halloween party! Get in the spirit a bit and try Violent Lips Temporary Lip Tattoos ($15 on Sephora.com). This set of three temp tats has been spotted on runways and now you can apply them yourself with ease. A cat eye and a glittery lip is all the not-so-enthusiastic-about-Halloween gals need to make an appearance. If anyone asks what you’re supposed to be, tell them you’re going as a more glammed-up version of  yourself.
