With its spooky rendition of the eponymous Addams Family figure, Netflix’s Wednesday has gripped the Internet. Supporters of the show are mesmerised by the eerie setting and stellar cast, which includes Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, and Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, among others.
Since the hashtag #WednesdayAddamsMakeup has amassed nearly 900 million viewers on Instagram, people are now clamouring to learn how to mimic Jenna’s gothic makeup so they may channel Wednesday in real life. Fortunately, Jenna’s casket-ready complexion, smudged, smoky eyes, and dark burgundy lips are simpler to imitate than her viral dancing move. Since we already know how to ace the smokey eye makeup, let’s have a look at how to replicate her berry, burgundy lips this season.
A Step-By-Step Guide To Channel The Macabre Character Vibe
Oh boy, we’re going gaga over the lip combo Wednesday Addam’s makeup artist has used on her lips. The eerie lip look is so easy to achieve that you’ll be donning the same lip combo during the holiday season. In order to get this ghastly character vibe, the series’ hair and makeup artist, Tara McDonald, said she only used two makeup items. So what do we require to appear exactly like Wednesday on New Year’s Eve?
The MUA and Ortega collaborated on a post revealing the precise lip combination Ortega wears on the show, which is supposedly a clear balm blended with the MAC Lip Pencil in Nightmoth. McDonald’s top tip is to combine the two lip products in a pot or on the back of your hand before dabbing it onto the lips. Voila, you’re set to set the dance floor on fire!
NYX Professional Makeup Butter Gloss – Cranberry Pie
This is a perfect dupe for the Wednesday Addams lip combo, and the colour is quite similar. A lip gloss that feels and tastes as sweet as sugar cookies, NYX Professional Makeup Butter Gloss is buttery soft and silky smooth (without the stickiness). For creamy, sheer-to-medium coverage that melts over lips, swipe it on either by itself or over your favourite lipstick.
Top Tip: Because it’s a little shiny, blot it to mimic Wednesday’s lip colour.
