The Pokémon Go phenomenon has become more than just a mobile game. For many, including beauty-lovers, the app is more of a lifestyle.
A Pokémon Go Perfume is already available to douse yourself in while hunting the critters. And as Halloween inches closer, we are expecting to see a ton of Pokémon transformations. But YouTube makeup artist Chrisspy is already ahead of the curve. In a mind-blowing tutorial, she completely transformed into a life-size Pikachu that looked a lot more impressive than plain and predictable yellow eye shadow and red-accented cheeks.
Using a variety of special effects techniques, Chrisspy completely hid her face to draw on Pikachu’s features. She gave her look lifelike details by attaching cutouts modeled after Pikachu’s body on her face. Once her entire body was hidden behind a black screen, her creation appeared to float, making her resemblance to the animated character extremely realistic (and slightly terrifying). Watch along to see her morph into the famous Pokémon and to get inspired for your own transformation. After all, Halloween will be here before you know it!
