I’ve all but retired my Disney Villains Makeup tutorial series. Although it was a lot of fun to begin with, in the last few months I just haven’t felt inspired to keep it going. I was really struggling to think up ideas and I just felt it was better to leave it be than to try to force myself to film more videos that I wasn’t happy with.
That is until last week. I got a comment on one of my videos requesting a tutorial inspired by Oogie Boogie, the Bogeyman from The Nightmare Before Christmas. And all of a sudden my mojo was back! I leaped at the chance to create a seasonal look inspired by one of my all-time favourite movies.
For this look, I wanted something ghostly and gothic. I chose a few shades of green and blended them together to create a striking eye. I used a khaki colour that was reminiscent of Oogie’s sack-cloth body, but added a pop of day-glo green that reminded me of the glow-in-the-dark colours in his lair. I’ve been dying to use a black lipstick for one of these looks, and it was the perfect way to pay homage to Oogie Boogie’s gaping maw.
I’ve actually worn this makeup a few times now. I like the punk feel this look has. If you feel that it’s a bit over the top, you can always wear a slick of clear gloss on your lips and just play with the green eyeshadow.
If you’d like to request a makeup tutorial, please feel free to get in touch with me. Have fun playing with this look and let me know if you try it out for yourself.
Fab tutorial!!!
Thank you so much!
