Halloween Makeup: Enjoy Safely and Protect Your Skin

Halloween is the perfect time to get creative with makeup, hair color, and costumes, but it’s also important to keep your skin healthy and glowing after the celebration!

  1. Choose skin-friendly products
    Use professional makeup and facial gems (also called face jewels or skin stickers) that are specifically designed for use on the face. Avoid craft glitters or adhesives not meant for skin, they can cause irritation or allergic reactions.
  2. Be gentle with your hair
    If you’re coloring your hair, select temporary, bleach-free, reversible products. These options are fun, easy to remove, and won’t damage your scalp or hair shaft.
  3. Special care for children
    Children’s skin is thinner and more sensitive, with a less developed skin barrier. Chemicals can penetrate more easily, so always choose hypoallergenic, dermatologically tested products made for kids, or skip makeup altogether for the little ones.
  4. After the party
  • Remove all makeup with a gentle facial cleanser, micellar water, or an oil-based makeup remover (especially for waterproof formulas).
  • Hydrate the skin afterward with a mild, fragrance-free facial moisturizer.
  • If the skin feels sore or tight, pamper it with a calming or repairing cream.
  1. Avoid medical treatments
    Do not apply active treatments such as retinol, glycolic acid, or acne medications the day before or after wearing heavy makeup. Let your skin rest and recover its natural balance.

Your skin deserves to shine beautifully, not just on Halloween night, but every day.
