This Ursula/Vanessa split face makeup tutorial is what Disney dreams are made of

With Halloween just around the corner, it’s never too early to start planning your costume… right?! And sometimes, all you need is a beautifully made-up face rather than an expensive or elaborate costume (although those are always fun, too!). And what better thing to take inspiration from than Disney?

Talented makeup artist Eva La Morte recently posted this video of herself doing a split face makeup tutorial of two seriously iconic Disney characters – Ursula and her human-form self Vanessa from The Little Mermaid. And the results are impressive.

Ursula/Vanessa, y’all.

It looks like Ursula is breaking out from under her Vanessa “shell” and that’s just too freakin’ cool. This seriously awesome look can be yours, too, thanks to Eva’s easy-to-follow tutorial.

The steps are simplified, starting with a split base color…

…but, fair warning, the details will require some serious ~skills~, too.

And there are plenty of beautiful touches you’ll want to keep for non-costume makeup looks.

You can check out Eva’s entire tutorial video here (which is, of course, set to a remixed version of “Poor Unfortunate Souls” – magic!).

You poor unfortunate lucky souls.
