Experts at the beauty retailer have revealed that the hashtag #halloweenmakeup has a whopping 5.6 billion views on TikTok and has shared the top trending make up looks that beauty lovers will be recreating this Halloween.

Here is a list of the most popular make up looks this year, according to the study:

Barbie make-up -195.5m views

It's no surprise that Barbie is top of this list, with the hashtag getting 195.5M views on the platform as many want to channel the iconic doll due to the "Barbiecore" trend along with the new long-awaited Barbie film starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken set to be released next year.

Minion make-up - 99.6m views

Minion make-up has come in second place with 99.6m views on this hastag. Perhaps it's due to the roaring success of the latest film Minions: The Rise of Gru which resulted in the "Gentleminions" trend and the trend where people trick their family and friends into turning them into minions.

Harley Quinn make-up - 96.4m views

Crowd favourite, Harley Quinn is still proving popular year on year with fans, making the top three with an incredible 96.4M views.

Mermaid (Ariel) make-up - 96.3m views

People are searching for the mermaid look this Halloween, which may have something to do with the fact that the new Little Mermaid film starring Halle Bailey as Ariel is set to be released new year.

Witch make-up - 44.5m

It's a Halloween classic that is always popular as people search for the witchy look this Halloween - maybe inspired by the recent release of the Hocus Pocus sequel...

Other popular make-up looks include Vecna from Stranger Things(36.6m) from the recent season released earlier this year, Pamela Anderson-inspired make-up at 23m views (probably caused by a resurgence in 90s make-up looks and the Disney+ series Pam & Tommy), along with channelling Twilight or The Vampire Diaries with vampire make-up (32.6m)
