Step 5: Use a fan brush and swirl it in a bronzer set like Smashbox Fusion Soft Lights, $30, then sweep over cheekbones and on temples. Apply the lightest shade on the tops of cheekbones and down your nose.

Step 6: Take a lip brush and swipe it across a red lipstick (we love Avon Ultra Color Rich Lipstick in Red 2000, $8). Start from the center of your lip and use the brush to blend it to the outer corners of your lips. Set everything with a finishing powder, like Nyx Cosmetics HD Studio Photogenic Finishing Powder, $10.

Step 8: For the hair, start by applying a blow dry lotion, like Redken Satinwear 02 Ultimate Blow-Dry Lotion, $17, onto your hair. Pump a few drops into the palms of your hands, and then rake your hands throughout your hair to distribute the product evenly.

Step 9: Next, create a deep center part. If your hair is long, extend your part from the front of your hairline down to the nape of your neck, creating two even vertical sections of hair.

It's official -- Miley Cyrus "Can't Be Tamed." The 20-year-old proved to be nothing short of a "Wrecking Ball" at this year's VMAs, letting us all know in no subtle way that she's truly "Someone Else" now. Point taken. As much as we'd like to move on from the madness, "We Can't Stop" talking about it (which was exactly Miley's goal).

While no one seems to approve of Miley's over-the-top antics (at least not openly), that's not stopping everyone --including half our staff and our model Stacey -- from wanting to be her for Halloween. In fact, Miley's VMA look promises to be such a popular Halloween costume this year that her famous foam finger is on serious backorder. For that reason alone, we knew we had to recreate what will surely go down as the most controversial moment of 2013. So without further ado, here is our step-by-step guide to stealing Miley's look for Halloween -- teddy bears not required, but definitely recommended.
