19 Halloween Makeup Tutorials You Have to See to Believe

Lex took it to the next level this year with this American Horror Story-inspired look. The intricate details of the mattress are stunning, and the key looks real! (It's actually a Q-tip!)

I loved this look, mostly because it was interesting to see her create the teeth first, not the black outline!

This one freaks me out, but I can't. stop. watching. Use wax to create the illusion of receding skin, then paint inside of them.

A brighter take on a typical zombie! Lex has plenty of zombie tutorials, but this one caters to people who lean toward brighter color palettes.

Getting animated! This is a cool take on a traditional zombie costume: make it look like a comic-book version. You'll utilize matte paints for this one.

Earlier this year, Lex created a sock monkey; this one has a Halloween spin to it.

Like I said, she loves zombies. (Or her viewers do, rather.) This one included "injected" lips that you have to see to believe.

Making pumpkins terrifying instead of cute. Start with the orange to create the pumpkin, then go in and shade with a dark orange. Create crevices and cracks with black body paint.

What nightmares are made of. This tutorial is actually pretty simple: all you need is white, black, and red body paint.

I look at this photo and always think it's a drawing. This is one of the tutorials that looks awesome, no matter if your eyes are open or closed!

A simple but still effective look. Lex says that anytime she creates a face with wrinkles or lines, she likes to actually make that face so she can fill in the lines with liner.

Scaring more than the birds away! This is not burlap; she used only paint to create the texture on her face.

How gorgeous is this? Creepy, but still gorgeous. Using a nail art tool, you'll pick up the rhinestones and start applying them to your eyebrows with eyelash adhesive. But first? Paint your entire face (and shade it!) so you can adhere color-corresponding rhinestones.

People won't be able to miss you in this look.

This one really is simple — anyone can do it! Use green paint to create mold and purple shadow on the eyes. Don't worry about blending it — it doesn't need to look perfect.

A perfect match for Harley Quinn.

It's ridiculous how detailed this is! Instead of going with a Disney princess, she opted to show us a Disney prince.

Can't pick a favorite character? Combine two, like Sally and Jack from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Just downright terrifying! The mouth of this creature is painted over your nose, giving the illusion that it takes up your entire face.
