The 11 Best Halloween Cat Makeup Tutorials for Every Mood

The cat is by far one of the easiest and most popular Halloween looks to pull off. It's also one of the most diverse. You can simply dawn a pair of

ears, draw on whiskers, glide on a red lipstick, and be done. But if you want to mix things up like some of the below creators, you can take inspiration from childhood movies like The Lion King and popular TV shows such as Euphoria. You might even stray from the classic black kitty in favor of a tiger or leopard. The possibilities are endless.

Below, we gathered the best cat tutorials for every vibe and skill set for you to recreate on the spookiest day of the year with our product suggestions. Happy Halloween!

This black cat is easier to create than you might think. After filling in your brows, flick a liquid liner through them to create a bushy appearance. Next, brush black eyeshadow around your lids, along the sides of your nose, below the eyes, and around the temples. Pop on falsies, draw on a black nose and whiskers using white and black liner, and slick on light pink liquid lipstick to complete the transformation.
