Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a national holiday celebrated in November that celebrates the lives of the deceased. Contrary to the eerie connotation of its name, Día de los Muertos is a friendly, joyful, celebratory day.

One of the most visible traditions of el Día de los Muertos is the popular calavera makeup look, which has become widely popular across the globe. More commonly known as sugar skulls, makeup artists paint faces with skeletal designs, often adorning them with gems and scalloped lines around the eyes.
