It’s Halloween season and it’s time to come up with some creative ideas for costumes and such. I’m a big kid, I myself have no kids yet but I still love to dress up and recreate cool fun looks for the season! I decided to try to not focus so much on an actual costume this year, and do more of an actual look! I will tell you all time and time again, I am NOT a makeup beauty blogger, makeup isn’t my strong point at all. What I will tell you is that I am VERY creative, enough to pull off this feminine sugar skull face. Neutrogena has these
cleansing towelettes and they are supposed to be so efficient that it comes off in one wipe. So I took the challenge and tested the theory with this look! Check out my recreations below.
Personal Disclaimer: Originally, I wasn’t confident that I would be able to pull off this look efficiently. I actually hired a makeup artist to even do the look for me, but plans fell through – so I was forced to do it myself. I was very nervous because again, I am not the best makeup person, nor have I done anything like this in a while. But I will let you in on a little tidbit about me; I loved to paint as a child to where I wanted to grow up and become a professional artist. I used to watch Bob Ross every weekend and desired to display my own work of art, but that dream died a little. This opportunity actually brought back feelings of my long lost desire to paint, and my first canvas in a long time was MY FACE. I didn’t know how it was going to come out, but one thing about artist and the flow of creating is that your imagination starts doing the work for you. So overall I am happy with my Sugar Skull, Day of the Dead recreation. Check it out!
These were just a few shots of my Sugar Skull look. This was very affordable with everything being under $12! You can get the paint supplies from your local craft store. I went to Hobby Lobby.
Face paint – $4.99
Paint brushes (24pk) – $4.99
Flowers (2) – $1 via Dollar Tree

As stated earlier, the test of the actual make-up was to see how easily I can get it off with
Neutrogena’s cleansing towelettes. With so much face paint or if you do actual makeup, it can be a lot of product on your face. I know when I do even regular make-up, I sometimes have to use multiple wipes just for everyday cosmetics. That can be a bit much time wise and money wise. I don’t want to have to keep using multiple wipes just to get product off. So I tested these Neutrogena cleansing towelettes to see if it really comes off all in one wipe! Lets see how this really worked! Did it take only one wipe?
It definitely all came off in one wipe! I was really shocked! Ignore the face that I got some still in my hair (lol) I am thoroughly impressed! Do you know how much face paint I had on my face?? I literally covered my entire face with paint and it got all of it off. Seriously that is a potent wipe! Super wipes! I even did a time lapse video so you will see it live and in action my one wipe swipe of removal!
After using Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes
I encourage you all to have fun this Halloween season and try your own festive facial creation! If you decide to pile a lot of makeup/face paint to achieve your look like I did, I highly recommend these Neutrogena cleansing towelettes. I found mine at Walmart for $7. These wipes for me will even go beyond Halloween, because as I stated earlier I want more bang for my buck and I am not going to keep wasting multiple wipes on one face full of makeup. By the way, I think I am going to be Day of the Dead Scary Spice from Spice Girls…what you think?
Now, it’s your turn! Show off your Halloween look and how you use Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes to remove your festive look for the #NeutrogenaFaceOff. Tweet + Instagram your look and don’t forget to hashtag!

That’s really amazing that it took all that makeup off in one swipe! Definitely a must have for Halloween.
Those cleansing towelettes work really well! The kind I use now don’t even take my eye makeup off, much less face paint.
I love sugar skulls and man do I need to get some of those wipes. Mine don’t take makeup off that well!
That worked so great. Love how it all came off.
I have always loved Neutrogena. I haven’t tried their towelettes yet though!
A: Best Halloween costume ever!
B: I can’t believe those wipes got all of that off! Thanks for sharing this!
What fabulous make up! I can’t believe that wipe took it off- awesome!
That’s amazing that it all came off with just one wipe. I’m also very impressed with how you created that makeup look and you aren’t a makeup artist!

I love the makeup and I am impressed with how well the face towelettes worked. That is a big box of nerds.
I used to watch Bob Ross too! Sugar skulls are so popular now. Your makeup looked great and the wipes did a great job in cleaning all the makeup off your face!
I love your eyes!! I don’t think I could do that intricate of face paint. Very cool!
That’s a great way to illustrate how well the towelettes work. You have a knack for makeup, that’s pretty fantastic.
Your makeup is AWESOME! And I love how clean the towelettes got your face afterwards!
