SUMMARY: Halloween should be all about having fun, and worrying about your makeup should be the last thing on your mind. After spending hours creating your looks, ensure it lasts the whole night.

Halloween is like a scary beauty horror story that brings people together, displaying and sharing different ideas while having fun. Whether trick-or-treating or just staying at home with family and friends, the last thing you want is your makeup running and having to sneak off to touch it up. Depending on how long the Halloween party will last, your makeup will wear off unless you use some of these tricks to keep it glittering all night.

Use A Primer Before getting to the face painting and adding all the details, it is crucial to start with a primer. Make sure to apply the primer on the lips and eyeshadow. This will give the makeup something to hold on to and thus avoid sliding and slipping off. It is imperative that you let the primer set properly before applying the makeup.

Use Alcohol Activated Face Paints Most Halloween face paints require a lot of paint and the best option to achieve an amazing look is the alcohol-activated face paint instead of greasepaint. As the name suggests, greasepaint will tend to meltdown with time, while the alcohol-activated paint will stick on, making this one of the best Halloween face paint ideas for adults.

The alcohol-activated paints have an extra pigmented finish and are dry to smudge, while the greasepaint will stay wet, smearing on anything you come into contact with. For any makeup pro tip, always use alcohol-activated products.

Water Proof Eye Liner and Lash Glue If you need to add some touches with an eyeliner, go for the waterproof liquid eyeliner.

These are perfect for both sensitive, greasy, and watery eyes. Therefore, there's no need to sneak out to retouch or reapply.

How do you complete the look without stick-on eyelashes? Imagine having a sophisticated look, but the lashes keep coming off every time, or you realize one fell off somewhere and can't find it. The best remedy to this is using waterproof lash glue. This glue comes as multipurpose glue. Apart from sticking the lashes, you can use it to keep other parts of your makeup in place. For instance, rhinestones, extra google eyes, or glitter.

Setting Powder And Setting Spray With the makeup is all done; what next? You cannot just get up and leave; you have to set it. One way is by using a setting powder. Remember, with regular makeup; you have to use a setting powder to keep everything in place; same with Halloween makeup. The powder will prevent it from rubbing, offering you extra coverage.

Using a powerful setting spray is the magic you use to keep your scary witchy face on all night without some parts rubbing off. The spray helps melt the powder into your face paint, creating a seal to prevent everything from moving out. The best option is the waterproof setting spray; it will keep your makeup on even after sweating.

Now you have all the tricks to apply your Halloween makeup to keep it on all night. With these, you won't be patient enough for Halloween to try them on. These tricks will make you look basic, but they will also make you look like the legit deal everyone in the neighborhood will be dying to see.
