Here is the final step to complete the devil halloween makeup. You can finish the costume with any theme you wish.
I chose to go with the formal look. A tuxedo and bow tie can be purchased inexpensively at a vintage clothing store. A red and black cape will finish off the outfit.
Now we’re ready to head out for a night of Halloween fun.
The next step requires some more spirit gum and foam rubber horns.
Remove the bandaids covering the area where the horns are to be placed. Apply the spirit gum over the skin area and the horn base. Allow the gum to dry slightly before pressing the horn in place. It should hold after removing pressure.
Repeat the application process for the other horn.
Once you have your face covered up with red, now is the time to add depth to your work of art. Using a black wax stick, draw the eyebrows, mustache and lips.
Apply the liner carefully so that the features are distinct.

Start with some red cream makeup and a small sponge.
Apply the cream over your face. Start on a small area and move onto the next area to ensure uniform application. Cover two spots on your forehead with pieces of a bandaid where the devil’s horns will be applied.
Bane was one of Batman’s most formidable opponents. Made popular by Tom Hardy in The Dark Knight Rises movie, the Bane costume is a natural choice for Halloween.
The Story Behind The Mask
Born and raised in a Middle Eastern prison, Bane regarded the place as his home. Here he learned the truth about despair. With no over to protect him, Bane developed extraordinary skills in order to survive prison life. He was an avid learner and read as many books as he can. Sympathetic inmates with specialized skills acted as his mentors. All this training during his incarceration transformed him into a merciless killer. His only friend during this prolonged ordeal was a teddy bear named Osito. It was thought that Bane concealed a knife in the doll’s head.
At one point after a selfless act where he helped an inmate escape, the other inmates took revenge on him and mutilated his face. The mask that he chose to wear to hide his ghastly mutilations was a constant reminder of the pain and agony he endured everyday.
Bane attained his superpowers after a failed experiment that exposed him to poisonous venom.
For a huge dose of intimidation, even for Batman, dress up as Bane this Halloween.
A very popular character to dress up for Halloween is Urma Thurman‘s character in the Batman and Robin movie, Poison Ivy. She was Batman’s nemesis but she didn’t start off bad.
The Story Behind The Mask
Her original persona as Pamela Isley was good. As a scientist studying plants, Isley’s research centered around venom and how plants may be able to use it for defense. Her life revolved around her work and it showed in her physical appearance. Isley was unattractive and lonely. When she discovered her employer, Dr. Woodrue, was using her research for evil, he tries to kill her with animal plant toxins.
After being left for dead, the poisons and toxins transform her into a beautiful red-headed vixen, Poison Ivy. Seeking revenge, she finds her would-be killer and kills him with a poisonous kiss.
Having been liberated from her former boring life, Poison Ivy makes her way to Gotham City where she encounters Bruce Wayne. It is here where her adventures begin and conflict erupts between her and Batman.
Want to dress trendy for Halloween but don’t feel like making the effort?
Here are a few ideas worth considering:
Father of America – with just some black construction paper for a stovepipe hat, a fake beard and some black eyeliner, you can dress up like Abraham Lincoln, the vampire slayer. An axe will add to the authenticity of costume.
James Bond – any tuxedo and a chic black bow tie will do. Don’t forget about the suave gait and the inquisitive eyebrows to round off the impression.

Heart Breakers – if you can talk a few friends into doing this, then some summer bikinis and short-shorts will help pull this off from Spring Breakers. Just hope it’s not a chilly October.
Video Game Hero – Wreck-It Ralph inspired this outfit. Wearing a blue baseball cap, oxford shirt, jeans and gold hammer will be the norm for Fix-It Felix. The Ralph outfit only requires you to wear an orange T-shirt and a painter’s overall with one strap hanging down.
Manic Pixie Dreamgirl – for the New Girl Jess look, all you need is a floral sundress, brown eyeliner, heavy mascara and bangs. Make sure to tease your hair into a big mess.
Football-Obsessed Player – with two-day stubble, baggy grey sweatpants and matching hoodie covered up in a black garbage bag suit, you too can look like Brad Cooper’s character in the movie, Silver Lining Playbook. Take off the bag and voila….you’re Rocky.
