Bright bones
The use of neon pink gives a modern feel to this half-skeleton makeup look. The eyes are all glam with a pink smoky eye. That same pink is used from the nose down to highlight the "exposed" nasal cavity and glowing mandible.

Purple passion
This traditional calavera features classic skeleton accents in black and white, paired with pretty purple as the accent color. Layer it around the eyes for maximum color payoff and work it into the contours of your bones for monochromatic theme throughout.
