OK, so… we know it’s only October 2, but we’re already just a BIT pumped for Halloween. Sure you have to start thinking about costumes now anyway, otherwise you find yourself in an hour-long queue outside the local joke shop come October 30.

If you prefer the focus of your costume to be makeup, there are plenty of Irish MUAs to be inspired by.
