Here are 5 spooky mermaid looks I've done to give you some Halloween siren inspo.
In the end, I'll share some products you can use to recreate these spooky mermaid makeup looks.
Mermaid witch Halloween makeup
Here is a pretty, yet dark and spooky, mermaid makeup I did for a Halloween sea witch photo shoot. I love how it turned out, with dark makeup and sparkly face gems, accompanied by my homemade siren tail and cloak.


To see how I created this mermaid look, watch my tutorial video.
Evil siren mermaid makeup
I got the inspiration for this look when a TikTok makeup artist did something similar. I had to try it out and make a video where I sing "Jolly Sailor Bold" in this makeup.

You can watch the video here, where I transform into this creepy siren.
Zombie mermaid Halloween makeup
I did this spooky zombie mermaid makeup for a Halloween Pennsylvania Mermaid Pod meet up back in 2020. We met at a park that had a little creek where we did a zombie mermaid photoshoot. It was a spooky and magical experience!


Devil mermaid Halloween makeup
One Halloween when I was newly into the mermaid community, I did up my face with this dark makeup and added some light up devil horns for a spooky devil mermaid costume.

Spooky oil spill mermaid Halloween makeup
This mermaid makeup look was meant to be a mermaid whose home was polluted by an oil spill and trash. I partnered with Key West Mermaid Festival to help raise money for Reef Relief, by spreading awareness of the damage caused by pollution.

You can see how I did this look in my video tutorial.
Dark mermaid makeup witch costume
For this simple mermaid makeup look, I went for a dark aesthetic, wearing dark lipstick and thick black eye liner and eye shadow. I donned a cutesy witch hat to complete the mermaid witch transformation.
