This is the Most Popular Halloween Makeup Tutorial on YouTube

 

We’ve officially entered peak makeup season. October is the biggest month for watching beauty tutorials online, according to a new Google report on YouTube searches released today. And the trend is growing: views of Halloween makeup videos on YouTube have more than tripled from 2012 to 2013.

 

So what is everyone watching — and wearing — for Halloween? Zombies and vampires, for sure. But the number one costume makeup video with a whopping 56 million views is Michelle Phan’s tutorial on how to transform yourself into a living Barbie doll.
