Snake eyeliner is the latest beauty trend to sweep Instagram – and it’s perfect for Halloween

You'll need a very steady hand to be able to nail this complicated look

HALLOWEEN is fast-approaching - but luckily, you don't have to spend a fortune on your costume this year.

Beauty addicts have been trying out a daring makeup trend to mark the festive season and it'll help you look spooktacular on the big day.

Eye-catching snake eyeliner is an intricate look that has been sweeping Instagram in recent weeks.

Replacing boring black wings for the slithering reptiles certainly makes a statement.

You'll need a VERY steady hand to pull off the tricky liner.

Some have achieved the effect by winding a different colour product around regular eyeliner.

Other steady-handed makeup fans have managed to pull off the difficult task of making the entire line resemble a snake.

While some opt to do this in bright green, others have decided on a black and white pattern.

To give the look a go at home, you will need two different colour eyeliners and a LOT of patience.

We recommend having a few cotton buds on hand to tidy up any mistakes.

Even though the design isn't the most wearable for everyday use, beauty lovers have been reacting very positively to it.

One Instagrammer said: "Omg this is wonderful!!"

Another added: "10 points for Slytherin!"

Despite this, not everyone is convinced they'll be able to replicate the complicated look.

A make-up fan said: "I can't even do a winged one let alone this!"

This isn’t the first bonkers beauty trend to storm the internet.

Bat eyeliner is another look that's tipped to be popular this Halloween.

Earlier this month, make-up fanatics experimented with backwards winged eyeliner.

Meanwhile, we previously told how Instagram users were obsessing over a floral eyeliner craze where people stuck flowers on their eyelids.
