This unique skull makeup is full of Indian accents. From the beaded veil to the gilded jewelry (including the nose chain), this is a look we're dying to copy. This artistry combines shimmery accents, detailed skeletal bones and wickedly intricate eye makeup. And would you look at those carved cheekbones?

You don't need to explicitly draw bones to create skull makeup. This look utilizes contouring and shading to create the hollows and contours of the facial bones. It's a neat way to use that contour palette you've never touched before.

Pastel-meets-goth in this pretty skull makeup. Deep, black eye sockets mix with bits of pink and mint glimmer to create an otherworldly glow. The mix of light and dark continues throughout the face as iridescent crystals enhance the sparkle.

This classic Day of the Dead sugar skull makeup utilizes the prettiest color palette. We love the red lips, teal accents and violet glitter. The giant floral headdress is the icing on the cake.

This beautiful, blacklight-reactive Day of the Dead makeup is truly a work of art. From the base of the ribs to the top of the skull, this look is dripping in intricate designs and glow-in-the-dark goodness that is accentuated in the skilled shading.
