Halloween is about a month away, but if you've scrolled through social media then you know that preparations have already begun. From costume inspiration to spooky make-up tutorials, people are ready to take on Halloween with a bang! Now we're no Claire Dunphy from Modern Family, but when it comes to Halloween, spooky inventive make-up is pretty much the norm. And this year, the looks making waves are nothing short of thrilling. One theme in particular is paying homage to Tim Burton's Beetlejuice.
With the recent release of the Beetlejuice sequel, fans have embraced a new make-up trend: the 'Beetlejuice Lip'. For this, you simply add a layer of vibrant green lipstick or pigment to your lips and top it with a black eyeshadow whilst puckering your lips. Doing this gives your lips a cool striped effect that sort of mimics tiger stripes. The striking black and green combo, reminiscent of the movie’s iconic colour palette, is like bringing Beetlejuice himself to life!
The Beetlejuice lips are a toned-down take of the iconic character. And we say toned-down because elsewhere people have gone all out with the Beetlejuice theme with full-on white-painted faces, bold purple eyeshadow, dramatic black lipstick, and pops of green across their faces.
We know, it's daring but it looks pretty awesome too. Halloween has started to really pick up in India over the years, with more people embracing the spooky season—be it through inspired costumes or cool make-up. And this year, we think a Beetlejuice-inspired look is perfect for bringing a little spooky fun to the season!
So whether you plan to embrace the subtely of the Beetlejuice lips or go all out with a full painted face, we rounded up all the vibrant essentials you'll need to nail the Beetlejuice look! Take a look!
