In this guide, you will find a list of characters with instructions on how to recreate their most iconic outfit and makeup look.
TV
Betty Cooper - Riverdale
Betty's preppy look is created by wearing a white button-up collared shirt with a pink long sleeve jumper over the top. Pair this with a pair of light blue jeans and you will look just like the Riverdale Vixen. For her makeup look, Betty goes for a very natural look by using nude shades on the eyes and pink lipstick. Add a touch of highlight and light blush to complete your Betty Cooper costume.
Veronica Lodge - Riverdale
One of Veronica Lodge's most iconic outfits can be recreated by wearing a purple scoop neck singlet top with a black plaid skirt. For the makeup, a deep red lipstick with mauve eyeshadow will perfectly replicate this Riverdale beauty. Add a pearl necklace for the final touch.

Red lipstick is THE most important part of any Cheryl Blossom Halloween costume. Be sure to curl your hair and wear a red jumper with a black plaid skirt for this look. Wear accessories like a choker or cherry earrings to capture the essence of Cheryl Blossom.
Toni Topaz - Riverdale
For this Serpents look, add some pink clip-in highlights to your hair and apply a deep pink lipstick. Toni is rarely seen without her Serpents jacket but a leather jacket will also work for your look. Ripped jeans are also must for this grungy look.
Josie Mcoy - Riverdale
Cat ears and sparkly eyeshadow are the staples to creating a Josie Mcoy Halloween costume. Wear a purple lipstick and some shimmery bronzer to dress like the Josie and The Pussycats singer.

Red, red and more red is what you will need to transform yourself into the magical Sabrina Spellman. Red lipstick and thick black eyeliner is the obvious choice for your makeup look.
