    Hot In The Hive: R.I.P. Tombstone Nail Color

    So far, we've given you lots of options for Halloween makeup, in case you're looking for an excuse to splurge on more dramatic products and shades you may normally not allow yourself to indulge in on any average day. But what if your beauty budget doesn't exactly allow for high-end costume-y makeup you know you'll never use again until it's way past its expiration date? Luckily, the lines carried at Sephora aren't the only ones boasting Halloween-friendly products -- bargain drugstore brands are going festive with their shades too. Wet 'N Wild's costume-specific line, Fantasy Makers, has just released their own mini-collection of R.I.P. Tombstone Nail Polish just for the spooky season. While the three different shades (shiny black, multicolored glitter, and a sheer glow-in-the-dark shade) are pretty "Halloweenie," they're inexpensive enough to be worth the splurge. Plus, the bottle is totally cute, in an appropriately morbid sort of way...

    Price: $2.50 each

    If you're not exactly the most handy with an eyeliner brush, or even if you can't tell the difference between an eyeliner brush or an eyeshadow applicator, you may normally skip past beauty aisles and counters out of fear of the unknown... or the likelihood that you'll end up looking like something out of a horror movie if left to your own devices with a collection of shades. Luckily, Halloween is the one time of year where that look just might work in your favor! Costume makeup doesn't discriminate between the cosmetics-challenged and the beauty adept; even if you're not looking to go out as a drag queen, it can be fairly easy to complement your costume with the right Halloween-appropriate makeup. Dark nail polish is always an easy way to get festive, or take the opportunity to go full-out glam with gilded eye foil. Or if you're really that helpless when it comes to self-beautifying, these wild ColorOn eyeshadow appliques practically do all the work for you! Take a look at the slideshow for some perfect beauty picks to either look frightening or fetching on your night out!

    Sink Your Teeth Into These Seriously Scary Vampire Halloween ...

    With the Twilight and True Blood sexy vampire phenomenon leading the way, these blood-sucking bad guys are back in full force. But even before the unruly hair and pale skin of Edward Cullen the soap opera story plot lives of those hot monsters from True Blood, vampires were still around and intriguing us regular mortals while scaring the living daylights out of us at the same time. It started with Dracula, and then there was Christopher Pike and Anne Rice who added sex appeal to their vampiric characters (who could forget Brad Pitt as a young, brunette bloodsucker?), and of course the ultra-buff Wesley Snipes in Blade. Now with Halloween fast approaching, there's never been a better time to dress-up as these Halloween classics. Choose the usual vampire get-up with the swirling cape, fake blood and drawn-in widow's peak, or put a modern day spin on it a la Twilight and don a cool leather jacket, lighten your skin tone by about 6 shades and pop in some fake fans. Bonus points for chiseled good looks and stubble. Check out the slideshow for what you'll need to have an undead Halloween!

    Hot In The Hive: Spooky Nail Appliques By Dashing Diva

    When I was younger (too young to start destroying my stubby natural nails by getting routine acrylic manicures), I used to look forward to Halloween as a chance to break out the press-on nails and have glamorous (if not slightly terrifying) talons for a night. And now that I'm old enough to have long outgrown the bad habit of chomping on my tips, I have to say a part of me still loves the excuse to splurge on a full set at the salon, or even some nail art airbrushing if I'm feeling super "adventurous." But let's face it -- times are tough, and there are cheaper (and less messy) options out there other than hitting up the manicurist or trying your hand at those Nail Art pens this Halloween. Dashing Diva Design Nails come with a multi-sized set of press-on nails with festive designs like skulls and diamonds or a black French manicure. They're nice and thin, so they'll feel and look much more natural than the plasticky cheap-o ones at the drugstore, and they'll be less likely to pop off when you stick your hand in the candy bowl. Eek!


    Price: $10

    Have A Boo-tiful Halloween With Our Stylish And Spooky Makeup ...

    In the process of coming up with a Halloween costume- a process that has yet to deliver results- I suddenly came across a strange patch of regret over certain costumes I wish I'd worn when I was younger, like a Marvin the Martian suit, or Ms. Pac-man getup, complete with a trail of devoted friends/evil ghosts. But seeing as that ship sailed years ago and time is running out in more ways than one, I'm going to use this Halloween as an excuse to experiment with the crazy makeup I'd never be caught dead in- pun intended- on any other day. MAC makes it easy- you can shop by look, so celebrating Halloween from the neck up is suddenly filled with colorful options like "Space Diva," "Tronika" (a robot-femme type), and tons of other ideas. Click the slideshow for more novelty makeup that's perfect for Halloween, and feel free to comment with your own ideas...and while we're on the subject, anyone know of any, uh, arcade-themed parties?
