October 12th DevAnn puts an original spin on the classic Beetlejuice costume by creating a painterly version of Lydia Deetz. She was "Inspired by @lilacbat and the incredible artwork of @dustinbailard, I bring to you my darling Lydia." DevAnn’s artistry is avant-garde and whimsical, and she often adds a gothic style to her characters that make them hauntingly beautiful. For this look she used Clown White as a base and added Paradise Makeup AQ™ on top to add color. |

October 15th Nothing says Halloween more than the classic horror host The Crypt Keeper! This stunning cosplay was created by New York based artist Jeri Miller. She says "This piece is based on the iconic Crypt Keeper. I wanted to give him a more painterly style and was inspired by the work of @zacharyjacksonbrownart." Jeri creates gorgeously horrifying cosplays and face and body paintings. For this look she used Paradise Makeup AQ™ for everything from the decaying face to his fancy tux. |

October 16th Katie is a professional face and body painter from Los Angeles, California. Katie creates amazing cosplay paints all year long, but we love her series of artistic skeletons. She creates detailed skeletons in every theme, color, and for every occasion! For this Halloween skeleton she wanted to create a "twisted take on a classic character, fully body painted with only white and black Paradise Makeup AQ™ and one black shadow." This makeup would make Wednesday and the entire Addams family proud. |
