Delivery Method As Bautista explains, “If you think about the roots of what it really means, it’s a day to honor your deceased loved ones, and there’s nobody who’s impartial to that—anybody can relate to that,” she says. “ The big thing is when people don’t respect the culture itself, or they’re interested in tying it into Halloween, and that one is sensitive to me, too. I do Halloween makeup all the time, but I’m very careful not to label one as the other. As a Mexican American artist, that’s been my biggest mission: to celebrate our culture without letting the roots of it be taken away.” What do you need for Day of the Dead makeup?

The holiday is most commonly celebrated in Mexico, where families spend three days preparing for and enjoying Día de Los Muertos. The celebration includes setting up an altar, or ofrenda, to decorate with gifts and photos to honor family members from past generations. There are also brightly colored decorations, colorful flowers and traditional foods involved. Last but not least, many elect to wear face paint that resembles a sugar skull. La Catrina is an iconic figure that comes from a piece of work called La Calavera Catrina by artist José Guadalupe Posada, which features a skeleton woman wearing a dressy hat adorned with flowers. (Catrina was also later included in a mural by Diego Rivera.) Both sides of this half-face Day of the Dead makeup are legit gorgeous. I mean, that contouring on their right side? Seamless. And using red and white in this look is such a fun way to create a simple—yet still very impressive—look for Día de los Muertos. 2. Pretty pink makeup for Day of the Dead Everyone else, though?

Some People Paint Their Face White for a More Ghostly Effect

With that in mind, here are a few examples of Day of the Dead makeup to get you inspired. 1. This red and white Day of the Dead makeup If you don’t have the patience required for a whole face makeup, you can get a similar effect with a half-face Day of the Dead makeup look, like the one shown here by Bautista. 14. This love-themed look

While there is room for creative interpretation, keep in mind that these are traditions and celebrations that are rooted in cultural history. Since it is a celebration of life, Bautista also advises against adding any elements to your look that could lean towards horror or gore and blur the lines between Day of the Dead and Halloween. “It’s not about fear or anything scary,” Martinez adds. “It’s about life, but they just happen to be in another space.” The flower detailing—both on the face and in the hair—is key to recreating this Day of the Dead makeup look. Don’t forget to finish off your creation with a set of wispy eyelashes and a pink smokey eye. 9. This pink Day of the Dead makeup If you typically go for looks that don’t require a full face of paint—I got you. This look keeps it low-key, but the hot-pink accents (think: pink lips, cheeks, and the details under the eyes) still make for beautiful Day of the Dead makeup. 3. This simple makeup for Day of the Dead The shades of pink and red in this Day of the Dead look are too pretty not to recreate. Don’t you just love that subtle pink highlight on the cheekbones too? Finish off your makeup with a touch of glitter on the eyelids. 10. This colorful idea for Day of the DeadDay of the Dead makeup looks are strikingly beautiful. That said, if Dia de los Muertos isn't a part of your own culture, it's important to fully appreciate the cultural significance and meaning of the tradition before trying it out yourself.(It has absolutely nothing to do with Halloween. At all.) As Bautista explains it, the makeup is a reflection of your own life or an interpretation of someone that you’re honoring, so what colors you use is up to you as the artist.
