Originally started by 22-year-old makeup artist Jack Emory, the "blank canvas" look involves painting half your face with a white color and keeping the other half in line with the makeup you normally use. It creates the illusion of a portrait and is mesmerizing.

We can't stop staring at the trend, which now has dozens of versions under the hashtag #blankcanvas. For anyone obsessed with makeup, this look gives you a Halloween costume option that will allow you to get creative with your massive cosmetic stash.
