Take a good look at your face and decide what your best feature is and work with it. For our example, we are going to use farm maid. Any of these ideas and tips can be found on a DVD called Halloween Makeup Collection One with more information on the hows to step by step. For a farm maid, or cowgirl, or even sexy cop you are going to want simple, but still be seen. So more makeup than usual will be needed but tasteful done. Start off with your best feature you are going to want to play up, and we are going to use eyes as our example.

A farm maid is going to have a simple innocent look such as doe eyes. That look is still something you will need to plan out because you want it to last you all night under all types of lighting.

Start off with your makeup primer, or foundation all over your eyelid. This is to keep your makeup in place. Next you will need a all over color and for this look pick something really light. Smudge your base color on the lid, blending up and out towards the brow till it pretty much just fades away. A nice grey would work well for this.

Next you need to intensify that color with a darker color by adding it to the crease of the following the natural curve of the socket. Lighten under the brow line and use a round makeup brush to smudge it the two colors together starting from the outside in. Go easy on your eyeliner and do wear mascara. If you look younger than you are, your eyes will be just right for this look. Don’t forget your blush and wear a pretty pink if you’re a farm maid or cowboy, if you are using this look for a sexy cop then go red with your lipstick.
