5 Makeup Pigments We’re Obsessed With for Halloween
October 05, 2018
Makeup pigments are our secret weapons when it comes to nailing Halloween makeup looks simply because they get the job done with very minimal effort and product. These loose powders have tons of payoff and are super versatile. And since you probably already have a ton of other makeup that will work for Halloween, pigments are a great addition to your stash.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up our five current favorites that we guarantee will change your Halloween makeup game — whether you choose to go as a fairy, ice queen, comic character or absolutely anyone (or anything!) in between.
Mehron Precious Gem Powder in Topaz
For a gorgeous golden aura, we highly recommend a powerful pigment like the Mehron Precious Gem Powder in Topaz that will last for hours on end. We love how pigmented this powder is and how pretty and warm it looks on every complexion.
NYX Professional Makeup Pigment in Old Hollywood
If you’re looking to channel a Gatsby-esque makeup look this Halloween, look no further than this pigment. It has a beautiful glittering gold sparkle that can be worn loosely on the face or packed onto the lids.
Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Shadow in Metallic Dusty Rose
The Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Shadow in Metallic Dusty Rose by Stila is our favorite product for a gorgeous fairy-like finish no matter what kind of Halloween look you’re going for. Apply this as a highlight onto your cheekbones, down your cupid’s bow and on your brow bone for the most iridescent glow.

To channel your inner 80’s this Halloween, our go-to neon pink pigment for the season is L’Oréal Paris Magic Infallible Pigment in 1st Base. This stuff is not for the makeup weak, but it can be used to create a gorgeous eye look or a hot neon cheek.
Colourpop Super Shock Pigment in Issa
