Halloween might not be as big of a deal here in Australia as it is in other parts of the world, but the idea of getting dressed up and celebrating with friends is something we can definitely get behind. And, with much of the country experiencing lockdown measures over recent months, which has seen us don nothing but trackies or activewear, the thought of going all out with dress-ups is a fun one.
If you’re lacking Halloween inspiration, we’ve done the hard work for you and below, have compiled a bunch of makeup looks to inspire your Halloween costume. These inspo images are from some of our favourite Instagram content creators and they vary from spooky to sweet.
