Spectacularly Spooky Halloween Looks From MAC


I'm planning some fun Halloween how-tos for later this month, but I couldn't resist showing you these looks. MAC asked its makeup artists to come up with creative Halloween makeup, and received more than 500 face charts.
You can see 25 of them online, where you'll also find lists of which products to use—but considering the techniques needed to achieve these looks, you'd be wise to go to the nearest MAC store for a lesson. These are some of my favorites. Which one would you want to wear?

Eat Yourself Beautiful Collagen Marshmallows

Sweet skin secrets: Collagen Marshmallows
So many beauty treatments involve an element of suffering that it's great to hear of one that involves nothing but a tasty treat. Whether this one works is another matter altogether, but I was amused and intrigued to hear about these wrinkle-busting collagen marshmallows, which have recently reached our shores from Japan - the home of weird beauty.
The plump and juicy 'mallows contain 3000mg collagen peptides per pack, and are said to bump up the body's collagen levels, in turn aiding skin flexibility, softness and resiliency.
I have to say I'm not immediately convinced by the science, but they look very tasty and they'd make a lovely gift. Available in Harvey Nichols or online: £9.99 at Eat Yourself Beautiful
