Lucy Boynton's Painted-On Lashes

Skip the false lashes this festive season and give optical-illusion lashes a try. Inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas (the soundtrack was apparently playing in the background during the glam process, makeup artist Jo Baker told Allure) and The Corpse Bride (another Tim Burton classic), this party makeup look feels both glamorous and eerie at the same time.

To re-create this at home, follow Baker's lead: Instead of using a pencil or liquid liner to draw the lashes directly onto your skin, take a waterproof pencil and smudge the tip against the back of your hand. Then, using an angled liner brush, dip the bristles into the black pigment and draw on the lashes that way. Finish with lots and lots of mascara.
