Halloween is a mere 4 days away, and if you're anything like me, you're still scrambling around for a costume (it should be noted that I hate dressing up). Or maybe you already have yours but you need a little something extra to give it that oomph. Either way, I'm sure your makeup is heavily involved, so here are some products to get you lookin' your hottest this Halloween.

Glitter

Every gal needs to glimmer, and that's best accomplished with glitter. Oh, I really didn't intend that to rhyme, but it did anyway. Glitter is a great way to enhance your makeup, especially on Halloween. There are tons of choice in glitter, from the chunkier cut pieces to the smaller mineral type shimmers. My advice? If it's going anywhere near your eyes, stick with the finer pieces and buy a product you'll use again (and not just for Halloween and New Year's!).

Try Sugar Cosmetics Glitterati, which features 5 different colors of dual-ended sticks with a lightweight shadow base on one end to keep the glitter in place, and a laser-cut glitter (so no jagged edges!) on the other end to shine like a diamond.

If that's too much glitter for you, Urban Decay's Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner, available in 7 different shades, helps you control the line and the shine. Plus: it's superblendable and can be used to glam up any night.

Lashes

False eyelashes can add glamour and drama to any face, and they come in a variety of different types and textures to give you what you need. For anything and everything from subtlety to over the top, glitter to rhinestones to feathers to colors, full-strips to individuals to end-lashes,  MakeUp For Ever has got you covered.

 
Eyes

EyeEnvys are awesome and ridiculously easy to apply, especially if messing around with brushes and applicators just leaves you frustrated. Try their exotic kit, which features animal print and camouflage eye looks that look you spent hours on them and can lend an extra twist to your costume.

For eyeshadows with bold color and crease-proof staying power, look again to Make-Up For Ever for their Flash Color Eyeshadows, specifically marketed for special effects. Great for face-painting and blending effects, and available in a ridiculous amount of bright and fun colors.

Primer

Chances are that you'll be partying/hanging out somewhere hot, sweaty, dark, and filled with tons of people. Prevent a premature makeup meltdown by applying primer before your makeup. Urban Decay's Primer Potion for eyes has been an industry standard since the day it came out, and Smashbox's Photo Finish Face Primer will keep any facepaint or foundation from going south. Both products boast Best of Sephora 2008 titles. Saucy.

Most of all, remember to be safe and have fun on Halloween, and to WASH OFF ALL YOUR MAKEUP BEFORE YOU CRASH. No one wants to wake up to melted fairy facepaint and bad skin.
