Earthlings, this Halloween, we’re channelling all things alien with our Martian makeup look. So, prepare to put the extra in extra-terrestrial with everything from shimmery pink eyeshadow and bright berry blush to sparkly stars and glistening lip gloss.
Step 1: Prep to perfection
To start your alien makeup look, apply primer to your face and smooth it in using your fingers.
Rimmel
Multi Tasker All Day Grip & Breathable Primer 24Ml
£9.99
Step 2: Get the glow
Mix together a dewy foundation with a small amount of liquid highlighter for a glow that’ll rival any alien out there. Pat this into the skin using a beauty sponge or a foundation brush.
After, go in with concealer to touch up any areas that need a little more coverage – small concealer brushes work best for this.
Rimmel
Rimmel Lasting Finish 35HR Foundation Natural Beige SPF20
£10.99
Step 3: Up your brow game
For fuller and fluffier brows, start by brushing through them with a clear or tinted brow gel to define each hair. Once they’re set in shape, go in and lightly fill in any gaps using an eyebrow pencil.

Step 4: Blush o’clock
If there’s any look that calls for bright colours, it’s an alien makeup look. So, take your brightest berry shade blush and apply it to the cheeks using a flat, dense brush. Sweep it over the eyelid and all the way up to the temples for extra impact.
Step 5: Build up the colour
For easy application, take a sparkly pink eyeshadow stick and apply this above your eyelid crease to frame the eye. Then, take a rose gold eyeshadow stick and run this over your eyelid before blending with a fluffy brush.
To intensify the colour, choose a shimmery pink eyeshadow from your favourite palette and apply it above your crease. Then, take a shimmery white shade and place this in the inner corner and across the cheekbone for show-stopping shine.

Step 6: Lift and define the eyes
Use a black, fine-tipped eyeliner to line the eyes and create a wing. Then, load up your lashes with lengthening mascara for an extra dose of glam.
Step 7: Add all things alien
Use a black felt tip eyeliner to draw on a scattering of space-themed shapes like stars and dots.
Next, spritz a setting spray over a white sparkly eyeshadow to create a liquid liner. Draw on more stars using a detailer brush for extra precision.
Step 8: Plump up your pout
Line your lips with brown lip liner and swipe on a high-shine gloss to complete the lip look.
Step 9: Falsie finale
To finish your alien makeup look, apply a pair of volume false lashes to really make the eyes pop.
