Okay, listen, I’m fully aware that Halloween is still five months away and that you probably aren’t in that costume-choosing headspace yet. But IMO, the most fun part about October 31 is watching incredibly talented makeup artists create Halloween makeup looks that are so good, you don’t really even need a full costume–and that, my friends, is something you can do any time of the year. From ghost makeup, to angel makeup, to clown makeup, the choices are basically endless. My latest Halloween obsession? Spider web makeup.
I love it for two reasons: It’s simple enough for any makeup beginners to try and it’s a quick, non-cheesy costume idea that you don’t even need a Halloween makeup kit for. That’s why I’ve gathered the coolest spider web makeup looks, including pretty rhinestone studded spider webs and creepy, realistic-looking spiders. If you can handle it, keep scrolling for the 25 best ideas.

This Burnt-Orange Spider Web Look
The cool thing about spider web makeup is that with the right colors, you can create a totally different vibe. This look is giving me witch makeup vibes, and I’m fully here for it.
Purple eyeshadow is the real game changer in this spider web makeup look. Start with black eyeshadow on your lid and crease, then use purple to finish the smokey eye (you’ll want to include under your eyes too) and finish with the dainty web. *Chef’s kiss.*
If you want more than spider webs on your eyes this Halloween, you’ll love this spider web makeup idea. Start off this look with a good primer to make sure your hard work doesn’t slide down your face. The spider legs coming from your eyes will look so creepy.
My favorite thing about this spider web makeup idea is that it hits three important notes: rhinestones, fake blood, and sultry bronzer. Basically, the secret sauce to making a badass Halloween makeup look.
The pop of silver from the rhinestones in this spider web makeup look is honestly so pretty. You can recreate this look with any two Halloween-y colors and volumize your lashes to the fullest. The trick to that? Build up your mascara one layer at a time, or start using a lash serum in advance to help get them ready.
If you want to stick to one color for your spider web makeup, this one’s for you. The black spider web and black lipstick don’t need anything else to look really freaking cool. BTW, when you’re creating a darker look like this, start with a cream blush to bring some color to your cheeks first.
