For beauty-lovers, Halloween [1] is an excuse to try out all of the incredible makeup looks you've had stored away as inspiration all year long, and why stop at just one look? To us, the month of October is the perfect time to try out Disney villains [2], clowns [3], and so much more [4]. Who said you just have to reserve it for Oct. 31?

If you want to take your look to the next level, grab a beauty-loving friend and coordinate a costume [5] this spooky season. If you're both handy with a makeup brush, use the opportunity to show off your skills beyond the classic black cat (but if that's the limit of your Halloween effort, same, TBH). To get your creative juices flowing, we've rounded up some of the best makeup looks you and your BFF can re-create to win top costume party prize without even having to go to a costume store.
