We LOVE Halloween. Not only is it the perfect opportunity to listen to Backstreet Boys' 'Everybody (Backstreet's Back)' on repeat, but we get to try a whole load of new make-up looks that'd just be a bit ridiculous any other time of year.

If you're still in need of some inspo, our style team are here to help with 4 looks so easy you don't have to be Charlotte Tilbury to recreate 'em.

Red eye

Tired eyes just got chic with this make-up look.

Step-by-step:

1) Using a black gel liner start by creating an exaggerated wing reaching towards the tip of your brow.

2) Next take a dark red eyeshadow and seep it across the lid pushing colour into the inner corner.

3) Blend out for a smokey finish taking the same shadow below the lower lash line too.

4) Apply a pair of full lashes and a little false blood on the lips for a vampire inspired pou
