It’s been over a decade since Natalie Portman shocked the world with her Oscar-winning performance in Black Swan, but it can still make for a truly magnificent Halloween costume. Celebrity makeup artist and founder of Guide Beauty, Terri Bryant, walked us through how to recreate this iconic look. Start with your base: “Use Manic Panic’s Goth White Cream/Powder Foundation and Manic Panic Vampyre’s Veil Pressed Powder Virgin (white), either alone or together. Both are great cruelty-free and vegan options for achieving the ‘all the color has been drained from my face’ look. Make sure to bring the color down the neck and around the ears,” she says.

Next, trace the lines of the feathers on your eyes. “The beauty of this look is that you don’t want a perfectly applied line and it’s meant to be a little messy and “feathered” looking,” Bryant explains. Once you have your outline, use your fingers to fill in the entire space above the lid and over the brow with the Guide Beauty Line eyeliner. Finish up by applying a white or silver eye product like NYX’s liquid liner or loose pigment with a wet, fine-tip eyeliner brush to create little branches across the lid, and soft feathers at the tail of your wings. Finish up by filling in the lips with a deep blood blood-red, matte lipstick.
