13 Cat Makeup Tutorials to Spruce Up Your Halloween Costume

While some of us are still fully immersed in the summer mindset, others are ready to embrace the cold weather and all of the holidays that come with it. Namely, Halloween, which means it’s time to start thinking about the most important part of the day: costumes. Although we always plan for elaborate outfits, it seems that almost every year, we wait until the last minute to purchase a Halloween look and end up running to Party City to find the very last pair of cat ears. While there’s nothing wrong with being a four-legged friend for Halloween, you can make your costume a little bit more original by adding in some cat makeup to accentuate off your look.

We’ve rounded up some incredible cat makeup tutorials, so you can dress up those ears and transform into the kitty of your dreams. We have options for every cat Halloween makeup look you can imagine.
