Find out what everyone is searching for to perfect their spook-tacular looks this Halloween.

Halloween means it’s time to bust out the perfect costume. But many outfits would be nothing without a makeup look to match.

This spooky season, Google Trends rounded up the makeup looks that everyone is searching for.

One of the most iconic makeup looks within the music industry is from the rock band KISS.

Although they struggled to come up with their black-and-white faces, the band is now known for the signature makeup.

Because of that, KISS is at the top of the list Google Trends compiled.

A makeup artist, @runscay, showed off her artistic skills in a video, where she recreates Paul Stanley‘s (a.k.a “the Starchild“) look.

Wednesday Addams, from the supernatural mystery comedy TV series Wednesday, is one of the most popular characters on the list.

Her makeup look might be one of the easier ones compared to others, such as Batman’s plant-wielding antagonist, Poison Ivy, or Dr.
