It's that time of year again! Time to dust off your cape and your best set of fangs and get ready to party like it's 1399. That's right, it's Halloween! And what better way to celebrate than by dressing up like everyone's favorite undead creature: the vampire.
But not just any vampire-- a sexy vampire!
Because let's face it, when it comes to Halloween costumes, sexy is where it's at. And there's no reason why vampires can't be sexy. After all, they're immortal, they have supernatural powers, and they're dead sexy (pun intended).
So if you're looking to turn heads this Halloween with a sexy vampire costume, here are some tips to help you achieve the look.
The First Step: The Right Makeup
Any good vampire look starts with the right makeup. After all, if you don't have that signature pallor, you just look like someone who skipped a couple of meals—not sexy at all.
To get that perfect ghoulish glow, start by applying foundation two shades lighter than your natural skin tone all over your face. Then use a powder brush to apply translucent powder under your eyes, on your forehead, and down the center of your nose.
Once you've achieved that deathly pallor, it's time to move on to the next step.
Step Two: Fake Blood-Stained Lips
Vampires are known for their bloody mouths, so you'll need to give yourself some gory kissers if you want to look the part. The easiest way to achieve this is by using red lipstick or lip gloss.
First, line your lips with a red lip pencil or brush. Next, apply your lipstick or gloss in thin layers until you have the desired amount of color.
Finally, use a Q-tip dipped in makeup remover to clean up any mistakes. For an extra touch of realism (and gore), add a drop or two of fake blood around the edges of your mouth.
The Third Step: Fierce Eyeliner
Winged eyeliner is always fierce, but it's especially effective for vampy looks. To get those perfect cat eyes, start by applying primer or cream shadow all over your lids up to the brow bone.
Then use an angled eyeliner brush to apply black gel liner along your upper lash line, starting at the inner corner and working outwards.
When you reach the outer corner of your eye, extend the liner slightly beyond your lash line before flicking upwards to create that signature winged look. Repeat on the other eye, and voila! You're now officially batty.
Of course, no vampy, sexy, immortal eye look is complete without a set of gorgeous lashes. This Halloween, make your lashes look extra long, thick, and sexy withForChics Lash Lift Kit!

Step Four: Bitten Neck
No sexy vampire look is complete without evidence of a recent feeding! To create this gory detail, start by making two small bruises on either side of your neck using red and purple eyeshadow.
Then use a cotton swab dipped in fake blood to connect the bruises in a curved line going down the center of your neck.
Once you're happy with the results, mist your entire neck with setting spray to help everything stay in place through dancing, drinking…and bloodsucking!
Step Five: The Outfit
Of course, no look is complete without the perfect outfit to finish it off. When it comes to sexy vampire costumes, less is definitely more.
A form-fitting black dress or catsuit is always a good choice, as it shows off your assets while still looking dark and mysterious.
If you really want to stand out from the crowd, go for a latex or PVC dress—just make sure you don't forget the cape!
And don't forget the accessories. A pair of sexy black heels, some gothic jewelry, and, of course, your fangs will really help you nail that vampy look.
So there you have it! These five simple steps will help you create the perfect sexy vampire look for Halloween. Just remember to have fun with it, and don't take yourself too seriously. After all, it is just a costume!
