Miss Argentina's always been one of my favourite film characters and I honestly don't know why! Maybe it's just because she has fabulous turquoise skin and bold red hair? Ever since I first saw 'Beetlejuice', age about 11, I've wanted to dress up as her and this year I finally did it for a night out with some friends :)

TURQUOISE BASE - Kryolan aqua colours in turquoise and kelly green with Snazaroo body paint in pale green.
PURPLES - Sleek 'Ultra Mattes' purple, dark purple and white, Collection 2000 purple glitter eyeliner.
MISC - 17 'Hot Chilli' lipstick, Collection 2000 eyeliner, mascara. I also drew lines of my wrists in a dark red Collection 2000 lipliner since in the film she's slashed her wrists (couldn't be fussed with proper prosthetics!)
The wig, dress and sash were all from eBay. I'd show you the full length shots, but the dress was so shapeless AND I was wearing jeans underneath so...yeah...I looked like a sack o' spuds. I wish I'd had the time to make her awesome cape and style the wig properly but, alas, free time has been super rare over the last couple of months!
I kept getting asked who I was/ what I was from/ why I was green which leads me to the sad conclusion that not everyone has seen 'Beetlejuice' - if that's you, sort it ooout!

Awesome! Beetlejuice was one of my favorite movies as a kid, the only 'scary' movie that didn't scare me, except for the samdworm part :)
You look amazing, I love the contouring on the collarbones!

You look AMAZING!!!
Wow, that's dedication to a look! Beetlejuice is so good the first time I saw it (as an impoverished school girl) I got a late fee because I wanted to watch it twice. Harry Belafonte tunes always cheer me up too. xx
