Movies frequently inform the cosmetic industry and the most recent example is Hot Topic's Beetlejuice-inspired palette aptly named the 'Handbook for the Recently Deceased.'
The eyeshadow palette is perfect for the Halloween season and beyond as it features colors that can be used to create subtle and bold night-out looks. Of course, the collection features more audacious hues like bright orange, red and three shades of green, but each color arrives in a highly wearable shade that can inspire a costume or a bold, everyday makeup look.
True fans of the film franchise will additionally love this product because of its packaging, which stays true to the film's roots by incorporating the famed white and black strips.
