From “Stranger Things” to spider legs, 13 Halloween-inspired eye makeup to get you looking spooky AND beautiful

Let’s be honest here — for some of us, a one-night free pass for wearing creative makeup isn’t enough for us. We want to be rocking out-there eyeliner and uber-creative shadows all month long! Still, Halloween is the best time to go crazy with your makeup. If you’re looking to add some spookiness to your eyes for Halloween and aren’t quite sure where to start, Instagram is one of the best places to look for inspiration. All of our favorite beauty bloggers are showing off amazing makeup tutorials and even amateurs like us are finding new ways to use our rainbow palettes! From sultry moon-inspired shadow to intricate black cat makeup, the options for Halloween-themed eye makeup is neverending!
