18 album art-inspired makeup looks to drool over

Here at AltPress, it’s no secret we love makeup and music, so anytime they come together, it’s pretty magical.

There are a lot of talented makeup artists on the internet who think so as well. Sometimes, they even decide to take the albums of their favorite bands and artistically recreate them on their faces.

We’re not sure how they do it, but we’re glad they do. Here are 187 makeup looks inspired by some of our favorite albums to obsess over.

5 Seconds Of Summer — Youngblood

One Twitter user showed off their excitement for 5SOS’s latest album by doing four makeup looks based off each bandmate’s cover photo. We would totally rock this look to a 5SOS show and show off our obsession.

Panic! At The Disco — Pray For The Wicked and Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die!

Both of these MUAs showed their Panic! love by tackling two of the band’s album covers. The avant-garde looks are pretty amazing, and you can definitely tell which albums they emulate. Our only suggestion would be more eyeliner, because we love a good Brendon Urie guyliner moment.

Issues — Headspace

This Twitter user recreates many makeup looks of our favorite bands, but this Issues one was incredible. Her eyeliner wings are literally bird wings; it’s a true piece of art.

twenty one pilots — Blurryface

twenty one pilots fans will fall in love with this look instantly. This Blurryface-inspired makeup look is a complete face painting that probably took a ridiculous amount of time to do. We can’t get enough!

Paramore — brand new eyes and Riot!

Both of these throwback Paramore looks are so spot-on. The detail on the Riot! cover combined with the glam eye look is #goals. Also, we are seriously feeling the butterfly wings around the mouth. Bravo!

Fall Out Boy — MANIA

This Fall Out Boy look makes it look like this person has neon lights all over their face, and we’re jealous. It’s taking us back to when Pete Wentz had a short run with lavender hair that we fell in love with.

The Wonder Years — No Closer To Heaven

This one is really crazy. The entire stained glass-looking face is replicated perfectly on this person’s eye. The yellow mascara on the bottom lashes really just shows how much detail was put into this look.

blink-182 — blink-182

We are completely “Feeling This” look (sorry). It’s completely spot-on with the album cover and looks so cute with the artist’s coordinating hair.

Black Veil Brides — We Stitch These Wounds

This gory look is perfectly replicated by a fan. It’s complete with the runny eyeliner and gash on the side of a mouth

All Time Low — Nearly every album

This fan went above and beyond with these All Time Low-inspired looks. These aren’t just regular eye looks—this person’s entire face is transformed into the albums.

My Chemical Romance — Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge

This person would fit in perfectly on the cover of this popular MCR album. The blood splotches and drawn-on choker are a not-so-subtle nod at the cover and make us want to scream “I’m Not Okay (I Promise)” at the top of our lungs.

Dance Gavin Dance — Artificial Selection

All we have to say is HOW? This recreation of Artificial Selection is so detailed, and it looks nearly like an exact replica. We would never want to take this off if it was on our eyelids!

Green Day — American Idiot

This concert look is nothing short of perfect. The iconic heart hand grenade looks so cute and matches perfectly with the ombre red lips. This should just become our everyday look tbh.

Halsey — hopeless fountain kingdom

This looks like a rainbow vomited on this person’s face, and we want MORE. Halsey is a colorful queen, and she could definitely rock this look.

A Day To Remember — Homesick

This look would be amazing with just this person’s face makeup, but look at the rest. This is like a mural on a body; there is so much to look at. It’s also completely accurate to the album, so A-plus work here.
