These Easy Cat Halloween Makeup Ideas Are Next-Level

Halloween is basically around the corner, and if you’re still looking for costume ideas, why not consider a classic: cat Halloween makeup. 

There’s a reason the costume tops the charts year after year as one of the most popular Halloween makeup ideas. It’s simple on its own, but with so many variations to explore, you can easily turn this costume into a look that’s all your own. Even better, you likely already have most of the products needed to whip up some quick whiskers. We love a convenient transformation. 

From basic renditions to costumes more fitting for Instagram, we’ve rounded up our favorite cat Halloween makeup ideas and tutorials to try this year. Grab your black eyeliner and let’s get started. 

1. Classic Cat

Got 10 minutes to spare and some black liquid liner laying around? Great! You’ve got what you need for a classic black cat Halloween costume. There are plenty of variations on what you can do with your eye makeupâ€"smoky eyes, cat eye linerâ€"but it’s impossible to go wrong with black and gold as your palette. Add some black lipstick and a pair of cat ears and you’re done.
