With the wrong Halloween makeup, your cheerleader costume can become a zombie cheerleader costume by the end of the night. Makeup that stays put is imperative in pulling off the ultimate costume. Here are some tips to help your getup last the night:

  • Makeup stays longer on hydrated skin. Be sure not to slack on your moisturizer and eye cream.
  • Choose a long-wearing or waterproof concealer, like Maybelline Cover Stick Waterproof Concealer. Set it with an oil-absorbing powder.
  • Use an eye shadow base or primer, like L‘Oreal De-Crease Eyeshadow base.
  • Curl lashes, and use a waterproof mascara if your costume includes it. If you need to wear false lashes, bring extras and glue with you. If you need to wear colored mascara and can’t find one, try Benefit She Laq, which comes with a mascara wand applicator.
  • If your disguise requires flushed cheeks, layer more than one kind of blush (mousse, powder, gel, stain) to make the color last longer.
  • Long-wearing eye pencil on brows instead of brow pencil. Also use it for fake moles or freckles (that means you, Marilyn).
  • If you need to create the illusion of big lips, use concealer all over your lips before applying either liner or lip stain and then lipstick. If you need to tweak the shape, use a reverse lip liner, like DuWop Reverse Lip Liner.
