<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If there’s one Halloween makeup look that never goes out of style, it’s Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad. Between the smudged glam makeup, messy pigtails, and iconic red-and-blue color palette, this look is still one of the most requested Halloween transformations every single year.<br>For my version, I wanted to recreate Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn with a more glam, cinematic feel while still keeping that chaotic, lived-in energy that makes the character so iconic. Instead of making the makeup perfectly polished, I focused on asymmetry, smudging, texture, and expression to really embody the character.</p>



<p class="kt-adv-heading16321_e911ab-14 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading" data-kb-block="kb-adv-heading16321_e911ab-14"><br>One of my favorite parts of this transformation was filming the process step-by-step while using audio from the movie during the voiceover. The final result feels less like a traditional makeup tutorial and more like watching Harley Quinn slowly come to life.<br>Whether you’re recreating this look for Halloween, cosplay, a themed party, or just because you love the character, here’s exactly how I created this glam Harley Quinn transformation.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Eyes</h3>

<p class="kt-adv-heading16321_b6d77f-d8 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading" data-kb-block="kb-adv-heading16321_b6d77f-d8">The eyes are really what make this look instantly recognizable. Harley’s makeup is intentionally messy and unbalanced, so don’t stress about making everything perfectly symmetrical. </p>



<p class="kt-adv-heading16321_a43d28-8c wp-block-kadence-advancedheading" data-kb-block="kb-adv-heading16321_a43d28-8c">For the left eye, I blended bright pink and red tones outward in a smoky shape and smudged the lower lash line to make it feel more worn-in and chaotic.</p>



<p class="kt-adv-heading16321_c32dee-e1_0 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading" data-kb-block="kb-adv-heading16321_c32dee-e1_0">For the right eye, I used deep blue shadow with black smoked around the outer edges to give it that grungy Suicide Squad feel. The key is making the colors look slightly messy without losing the glam factor.</p>



<p class="kt-adv-heading16321_190bad-69_0 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading" data-kb-block="kb-adv-heading16321_190bad-69_0">To keep the look dramatic on camera, I added oversized wispy lashes and blended darker tones underneath the eyes to exaggerate the smudged effect.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Skin &amp; Texture</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">One thing that really helps Harley Quinn makeup look more realistic is adding texture and imperfection to the skin.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">Instead of leaving the complexion flawless, I added subtle gray and black smudging around the forehead, nose, and under-eyes to make the makeup feel more lived-in and cinematic.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">I also added a fake cut across the forehead and softened the edges slightly so it blended naturally into the skin.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Lips</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">The bold red lip is one of the most iconic parts of Harley Quinn’s makeup look.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">Instead of making the lipstick perfectly crisp, I slightly blurred the edges and added a touch of smudging underneath to keep the look feeling messy and in character.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Hair</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">For the hair, I used Harley’s signature blonde pigtails with pink and blue ends. This instantly transforms the entire look and makes it recognizable even before the makeup is finished.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">The messier the pigtails look, the better. A little teasing and texture actually helps the final result feel more authentic to the movie version.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Make Harley Quinn Makeup Look More Realistic</h2>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">The biggest mistake people make with Harley Quinn makeup is making it too perfect.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">What makes Margot Robbie’s version so iconic is that the makeup feels chaotic, slept-in, smudged, and slightly destroyed — but somehow still glamorous at the same time.</p>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">A few things that help:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Smudge the makeup unevenly</li>



<li>Add texture around the eyes</li>



<li>Keep the skin slightly imperfect</li>



<li>Blend darker tones underneath the eyes</li>



<li>Don’t over-clean the edges</li>



<li>Let the look feel messy in certain areas</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">That balance between glam and destruction is what really makes the transformation work.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Frequently Asked Questions</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Is Harley Quinn makeup beginner friendly?</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">Yes! This look is actually very forgiving because the makeup is intentionally messy and imperfect.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How long did this Harley Quinn transformation take?</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">The full transformation took approximately <span class="text-token-text-primary cursor-text rounded-sm" data-placeholder-token="true">[insert time]</span>.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What lashes did you use?</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph"><span class="text-token-text-primary cursor-text rounded-sm" data-placeholder-token="true">[Insert affiliate-linked lashes]</span></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What wig did you use?</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph"><span class="text-token-text-primary cursor-text rounded-sm" data-placeholder-token="true">[Insert affiliate-linked wig]</span></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What products help Halloween makeup last all night?</h3>



<p class="isSelectedEnd wp-block-paragraph">A strong setting spray, waterproof liner, and long-wear lipstick make a huge difference for Halloween makeup longevity.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BBL Surgery Supply List: What You Actually Need</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s not go overboard, ladies!</p>
<p>Preparing for surgery can be a little overwhelming and it’s easy to go HAM on the supply shopping! And let&#8217;s face it, surgery is expensive and the little things add up to a lot of coins if you aren&#8217;t careful. This is why I have put together my bbl supply list of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/shop/amyinthemirror?listId=3315NBSPHCU1">top things you will ACTUALLY need</a> for your surgery. If you want to be even more budget-conscious you can find several of these items at your local dollar store!</p>
<p>Many dolls are often shook when they discover how much BBL Post Op Costs add up to. A realistic figure is <b>$800 in supplies</b> and <b><a href="https://amyinthemirror.com/lymphatic-massage-directory/">$1000 in massages</a></b>.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s <b>$1,800 whole extra dollars</b> in addition to your surgery fees that you need to take into consideration when budgeting for a BBL surgery. <i>(not including travel and accommodations)</i></p>

<p>Blood Health Supplement</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It: </b>This supplement helps promote healthy hemoglobin levels. It varies from surgeon to surgeon but, typically <u>you need a minimum Hemoglobin level of 12</u> to be cleared for surgery without a cell saver/blood transfusion.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Start taking 30 days before you get your lab orders for a blood panel (you are typically required to get your bloodwork done 15-30 days before surgery.)</p>

<p>Week 1</p>
<p>The following bbl supply list products will be needed during the first week of recovery <u>starting the day of surgery</u>. If you are traveling, these are the supplies you will need to bring with you.</p>
<p>Stage 1 Low Compression Faja</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It:</b> You will be wearing your stage 1 faja immediately when you wake up from your procedure. It is low compression, meaning it will fit loosely on your body, not tight. It is NOT meant to fit like shape wear or a waist trainer. <i><a href="https://amyinthemirror.com/fajas-101-compression-garment-guide/">See my Fajas 101 Guide here.</a></i></p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: First Check if your surgeon offers a faja at a better deal. It&#8217;s always better to go with the garment your surgeon provides because you can try it on during your pre-op appointment to guarantee it&#8217;s the right fit.</p>

<p>Seamless Tank Tops</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It:</b> During the first 3 months of recovery you will be in a faja every single day &amp; you wont want to wear a bra for the first couple of weeks. Seamless tank tops help prevent irritation from the garments, foams, and boards.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Fajas can cause back acne from sweating. Wearing a tank top will help prevent this. When you move into your stage 2 faja, a tank top helps keep the garments cleaner for a longer period of time between washes.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Female Urinal</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: During recovery, you are getting rid of a lot of fluid and will need to pee every 2-3 hours. Because you are wearing a faja, you will need to pee standing up. You will use this for approximately 3-6 months.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Practice in the shower a few times before your sx to get the hang of it. Girl, trust, you don’t want pee on your faja 😉</p>

<p>Lipo Foams</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It: </b>3 sheets are used <span style="color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);">to give uniform smooth compression and flattening of abdominal skin after cosmetic surgery. See my <em><strong><a href="https://amyinthemirror.com/fajas-101-compression-garment-guide/">Fajas 101 Guide</a></strong></em> for instructions on how to wear foams correctly in your faja.</span></p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: You’ll want to wear a seamless tank top to prevent foams from irritating your skin. I also recommend wrapping your foams in <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WD9PF7T/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07WD9PF7T&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=amycoplen0c-20&amp;linkId=4d9bf78415597d411f0427723e0737aa">Plastic Saran Wrap</a> to protect them from fluid stains (trust me they get nasty &amp; can’t be washed).</p>

<p>Abdominal &amp; Lumbar Boards</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It: </b>The Abdominal Board provides the extra support your midsection needs after an aesthetic procedure to preventing fluid retention, skin folds, and irritation. This is often required by your surgeon to be worn inside your Stage 1 Faja for 3 weeks after surgery.</p>
<p><span style="color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);">The Lumbar Molder gives extra support on your back. and helps shape your lower back.

<p>Antiseptic Skin Cleanser</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It:</b> You must wash your body with this special soap right before surgery &amp; continue to use it the first week of recovery.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: <span style="color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);">Don’t order anything bigger than 8oz, you won&#8217;t need it.

If you traveled for surgery, be sure to wear socks on your flight home or your legs will swell up like a pregnant lady! </span></p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Y<span style="color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);">our surgeon gives you 1 pair of socks that you wake up in after surgery. I recommend getting a second pair as fluid leaks all over them &amp; you need to wear fresh socks while your others are washing. I also recommend open toe so you don’t slip and fall on tiled flooring.</span></p>

<p>Extra Large Cleansing Wipes</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: When you get a BBL your butt cheeks are hard as rocks for about 12 days. Going #2 can get messy and you won&#8217;t be able to reach around that new booty easily. You will need extra large wet wipes to clean yourself properly.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Be sure you get extra large wipes for that extra large booty girl! <em>(Wet Wipes are way too small)</em></p>

<p>Toiletries</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: If you are traveling for surgery it’s airport efficient to take travel-size toiletries.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: You won’t need body wash since your using Hibiclens. Pack your toiletries in a ziplock bag so nothing leaks onto your clothes with airplane pressure and put in your checked bag so you don’t run into any issues with TSA</p>

<p>Plush Robe</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: Recovery Homes and Surgery Facilities keep it really cold at 68-70 degrees. You’ll want a plush robe to keep you warm. You also don&#8217;t really wear clothes for the first week of recovery. Typically a Robe, Tank Top, and Faja are all that is worn.</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: I recommend a Red or Dark Colored robe since you will be leaking fluids.</p>

<p>BBL Pillow</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: <span style="color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);">A BBL Pillow must be used for sitting during the first 3 months of recovery in order to avoid applying any pressure to areas where you had fat transferred. I&#8217;m not going to lie sitting is uncomfortable and no pillow will be amazing however you want something between hard as a rock and too soft that it cant hold your weight. </span></p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Find out if your surgeon offers a BBL Package that includes a pillow. If you are traveling for surgery, you will need your BBL pillow for your flight home. Please read your doctors post op instructions on when it&#8217;s safe to use the BBL pillow. If you are a short girl like me, you might also consider getting a yoga block to put your feet on bc this pillow elevates your a good 3-4&#8243; from the ground.<b><br />

<p>Chux / Disposable Underpads</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: After BBL surgery, you will be leaking fluids like crazy. Chux will need to be put down on the bed to protect the sheets and mattress from exposure to fluids.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: You will need 40-50 of these pads during week 1 of recovery while they are re-opening your incisions for drainage massages. After that, you shouldn’t need them anymore.</p>

<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Don’t waste any coins on gauze, it&#8217;s too thin. These pads are all you need.</p>

<p>Extra Strength Tylenol</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: Tylenol is the only approved pain relief medication approved to take alongside your prescribed pain killers.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Take a full-size bottle, not the travel size because you will need more than that! Outside of Tylenol, You <strong>cannot</strong> take Midol, Ibuprofen, Advil, ASpirin, or any other pain relief pills during week 1 of recovery.</p>

<p>Measuring Tape</p>
<p><b>Why You Need It</b>: Track body changes throughout your recovery</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: Everyone gets the surgery blues during recovery as the swelling goes down in some places faster than others. It can make you think your new dramatic shape is no longer there.

<p>After Body Contouring procedures that include Liposuction, many surgeons strongly recommend that a compression garment, also known as &#8220;fajas colombianas&#8221;, be worn to help reduce the amount of fluid build-up and fibrosis formation in your body. It&#8217;s  also believed they play a big role in &#8220;snatching&#8221; your waist. The length of time varies from surgeon to surgeon but you&#8217;re typically asked to wear the faja for 1-3 months immediately following your procedure. There are so many types of garments out there, it can be really confusing on what to buy and how to wear your fajas throughout recovery. This guide and demonstration video should help clarify!</p>

<p><b>Accessories:</b> The first 3 weeks require the use of <a href="https://amzn.to/3urOH6L" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><u>abdominal board</u></a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/3vIWLjD" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><u>foam inserts</u></a> at all times. <i>You may remove the abdominal board to sleep.</i></p>
<p><b>Pro Tip</b>: I highly recommend purchasing your Stage 1 faja from your surgeon so that you can try it on for size during your pre-op appointment. Because you are put into the faja right after surgery, it&#8217;s super important that it be the right fit AND compression level.<i><br />

<p><b>Timeline</b>: Worn at all times until you are <u>3 months</u> post-op. You can remove it only to shower once a day &amp; then put it on as quickly as possible.</p>
<p><b>Compression Level</b>: This HIGH compression faja is very tight, very uncomfortable, and typically has eye-hook connectors down the front that allow you to tighten it over time as your waist &#8220;snatches&#8221; to the gods girl! p.s. <u>NO metal boning waist training</u> until you are 3 months out of surgery!</p>
<p><b>Accessories</b>: During this stage, you may discontinue the use of the foams and abdominal board.</p>
<p><b>Pro Tip:</b> While you can buy standard-sized fajas, I personally recommend having a custom garment made that will last you your entire recovery. These take about 2 weeks to receive so you will want to order with your new measurements around 4-5 days post-op.</p>

<p>During your recovery, especially during the first month, you are getting rid of a lot of fluid and will need to pee every 2-3 hours. Because you are wearing a faja 24/7, and taking off your garment is painful, you will need to pee standing up. I highly recommend the <b><a href="https://amzn.to/2PVdiSw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tinkle Belle</a></b>. It&#8217;s slender shape fits into your faja&#8217;s opening seamlessly. Just be sure to practice in the shower a few times before your surgery to get the hang of it&#8230; you don&#8217;t want to pee on yourself 😉</p>

<h5 class="fusion-responsive-typography-calculated" style="--fontsize: 26; line-height: 1.5;" data-fontsize="26" data-lineheight="39px">Compression Socks</h5>
<p>Compression socks prevent swelling in your feet and legs after surgery and must be worn for <u>7 days</u> post-op. If you traveled for surgery, be sure to wear socks on your flight home. Your surgeon typically gives you 1 pair of socks that you wake up in after surgery. I recommend getting a second pair as fluid leaks all over them &amp; you need to wear fresh socks while your others are washing. I also recommend open toe so you don’t slip and fall. I personally really like these <a href="https://amzn.to/3uiDTYB" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><b>Compression Socks by Doc Miller</b></a>.</p>

<p>Lipo Foams are used to give uniform smooth compression and flattening of abdominal skin after cosmetic surgery<b>3 Lipo Foams</b> are inserted inside your garment for the first 3 weeks after surgery. I also recommend wrapping your foams in <a href="https://amzn.to/3h4tnQV" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><b>Plastic Saran Wrap</b></a>to protect them from fluid stains (trust me they get nasty &amp; can&#8217;t be washed).</p>

<p>When you first get into your Stage 2 Faja, the higher compression can be difficult to tolerate. <a href="https://amzn.to/3uo8zrs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><b>Extenders</b></a> can be used to give some relief until your waist snatches more and you adjust to the high compression. It&#8217;s NOT comfortable.</p>
