The spooky season has arrived, and what better way to celebrate than by dressing up for the occasion? Revolution Beauty is bringing a beloved Disney classic to life with an enchanting new makeup line. Each makeup pouch, brush, and palette is adorned with fan-favorite characters, perfectly capturing the Halloween spirit with dark hues and skeleton-inspired packaging.
The highlighter containers are designed with magnetic rigid boxes to ensure a secure closure, preventing any loose powders. Adding to the charm, some eyeshadow shades and all the highlighters feature Jack Skellington’s iconic face, achieved through embossing—a technique that creates a raised image on materials like paper or packaging. Embossing (and its counterpart, debossing) adds texture and a touch of uniqueness, elevating the look and feel of custom packaging.
