Halloween is a holiday celebrated on the 31st of October. It origins from the festival of Samhain among the Celts – an ancient celebration of the spirits of the dead. The word Halloween is actually coming from All Hallows’ Eve and the traditions start from 16th-century in Ireland, England and Scotland.
Over time, Halloween became a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving jack-o-lanterns, wearing costumes and eating sweets. An interesting fact is that one-quarter of all the candies sold annually in the US are for Halloween.
This holiday has always been a day filled with mystery, magic, fear and superstition. Halloween has its classic colors – black and orange. Black represents the “death” of summer, whereas orange is typical for the autumn and the harvest season.
Nowadays, it seems that we spend more time on doing special makeup rather than creating costumes. If you are looking for inspiration, here some impressive Halloween makeup looks.
