Here are three ideas for Halloween face painting: 1) A pumpkin design can be painted on the cheeks in bright orange with black for the nose, mouth, and eyes. 2) A skull design can cover the whole face in white with red lips, grey fangs, and black eyebrows. 3) A bat design can have a black and grey bat face painted over the nose and forehead with winged extending over the eyes and cheeks.

3. Halloween is fun both for adults and young
kids. If you've enjoyed painting pumpkins
with your family and friends, you will surely
enjoy face painting during this special
occasion. You can scare the wits out of
young kids and even adults if you paint
scary faces once they knock on your door
and ask the same old line “trick or treat.”

5. Here are some excellent ideas for
Halloween face painting.

7. Pumpkin – you can paint a pumpkin on
both sides of your cheeks. The
pumpkin should be bright orange in
color. The nose, mouth, and eyes can
be painted in black. The outline and
ridges of pumpkin design should be
light grey.

9. If you want, you can make your whole face
look like a pumpkin. The base should be
orange and for the cheekbones, you have
to apply a darker shade of orange. Make a
triangle shape over your eyes and paint it
black. For your lips and nose, you must
paint it black as well.

11. Skull – the skull design should occupy the whole
face. The base should be white and after you've
painted the white paint, you can paint a bright
red color for the lips. Make an outline of fangs
on both sides of your mouth in light grey. The
fill should be white and the tip should be
painted in red so that it will look like blood. Use
smoky grey for the eye lids and exaggerate your
eye brows with sweeping strokes in black color.

13. Bat – make a bat design over your whole face. Just like the
skull design, use white color as base. Above your nose and
your forehead, paint the face of the bat in black and light grey
for the eyeballs. The body of the bat should be painted over
your nose ending at the nostril's base. Use different shades of
black for the body. The wings cover your eyes and your mid-
cheek. You can paint some definitions by using light grey on
the wings. Over your lips, paint exaggerated curls upward to
the corners. Use your imagination and you can create a
realistic bat design.

15. These are just four great ideas that you can use. if you
want, you can obtain other painting ideas online.

17. You can even paint your own face if you
like, but this will a bit difficult. Get the
whole family involved and paint each
other's face. But before anything else, you
