Make-up artist transforms her face into terrifying ZOMBIE GRINCH

  • 2 years ago
A talented make-up artist has transformed her face into terrifying takes on Xmas characters including a zombie Grinch and Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Amanda Pacitti, 36, filmed herself flexing her creative muscle at her home in North Westfield, Massachusetts, USA.

The professional make-up artist creates body and face paint with her signature gothic twist, often taking well-known characters and reimagining them as an otherworldly ghoul or zombie.

Every year Amanda gives her followers a dark take on some Christmas favourites.

This year Amanda has presented Jack and Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas and a grim take on the Grinch.

"I usually film my videos either in my make-up studio or at home between my busy schedule.

"I try to make time to get creative so on days off or sometimes I’ll even stay up until 3 am just to have a chance to create!

"Once I’m inspired to create I will look for inspiration as far as colours, textures and themes to the character. I will try to map out my look on a face chart or drawing to know what kind of colours and products I will need to stay organized.

"My Nightmare Before Christmas-themed make-ups are my favourites but I do like the spin I took on the Grinch this year!

"A lot of times things come out completely different than how I had pictured I always like to see the end result and where my creativity can take me."
