Purple passion
This traditional calavera features classic skeleton accents in black and white, paired with pretty purple as the accent color. Layer it around the eyes for maximum color payoff and work it into the contours of your bones for monochromatic theme throughout.

Blingy bones
This crystal-encrusted look is a truly glam way to rock skull makeup at any soiree. The minimal color palette makes a big impact with glimmering gold and pitch black accents. Add some iridescent flat-back crystals to really make the look pop.

Soul senorita
This classic, rose-themed Day of the Dead makeup features the colors of the Mexican flag. Her skeleton rocks victory rolls, giant flowers in her hair and the prettiest red, green and white skeleton — much too pretty to be dead.

Earthy expression
Such a creative use of temporary tattoos — to create a floral skull so perfect, it looks hand-sketched. Deep cranberry, sage and turquoise are unexpected and delightful uses of color in this skull makeup look.
