It’s crunch time.
All Hallow’s Eve is tonight, which happens to fall on a Friday this year, meaning there will be lots of freaks, ghouls and politically incorrect characters out on the street come nighttime.
If Halloween costumes were the last thing on your mind till now, don’t wig out too badly. Here are some quick makeup tips that add up to a costume with fast-thinking apparel improvisation.

At Marc Jacobs’ Louis Vuitton Spring ‘09 presentation in Paris, his roster of models channeled Old Hollywood glamour — think Marlene Dietrich with bright, glossy red lips, black lined eyes and barely-there eyebrows.

The Republican-Democratic battle for the presidential heat has gotten significantly more heated since Republican nominee Senator John McCain brought on Alaskan governor Sarah Palin as his running mate.
As a result, Palin has turned up the Republican campaign’s star wattage, steadily building a legion of fans called “Palinistas” (an obvious take on the word “fashionistas”), as well as spawning wigs and glasses made to her likeness.
Eva Longoria is, besides your resident Desperate Housewife, one of the beautiful girls of Hollywood.
For red carpet events, she often prefers dramatic eyes with lush lashes and pale, pretty lips — I have yet to see her don a bright shade of rouge lipstick instead of a pearly gloss. At this year’s Emmy Awards, Longoria stuck to the dark mascara and black eyeliner, though her makeup artists did add a tinge of green along her bottom lashes for a sibliminal effect. As per usual, her Ton Parker-smooching lips were pared down.

Emma Watson, the 18-year-old actress who plays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter franchise, sat front row at the Giles Deacon show at London Fashion Week, her sophisticated look and chic manner belying her younger years.
And I couldn’t stop staring at her perfectly rich red pucker, wondering how to achieve the same cranberry color without rubbing the tart fruit itself all over my lips.

Proenza Schouler went from safari last spring to 80s power woman this coming Spring ‘09, going a tough gal route in big shoulders and high-waisted pants.
The thing about this power woman is that she wasn’t androgynous; she was still sexy, feminine and vampy as ever, and this feeling was probably a result of the red lips models sported down the runway of Jack and Lazaro. I’m really noticing that for Spring ‘09 most designers and makeup artists are agreeing that the thing to do is highlight one part of the face, whether it be eyes or lips, while keeping everything else clean and minimal.
