Vision from WandaVision

Vision from WandaVision

Audiences last saw Vision (played by Paul Bettany) in Avengers: Infinity War where he gave his life to try and stop the mad Titan, Thanos. Though fans don’t yet know how, Vision will return in the Disney+ series WandaVision alongside his comic canon love, Wanda Maximoff (played by Elizabeth Olsen). Despite the lack of details, fans are excited to see Bettany reprise his role as the level-headed android. And thanks to a Disney+ Super Bowl ad, there is at least some hint to how he fits into the show! Although he was only seen in bits and pieces, it’s clear that Vision will appear in several different time periods, the most obvious of which are the ’50s and the ’80s, seen here. Both looks are understated and will come down to makeup. Just remember to use black and white makeup and a white mind stone if you opt for the ’50s look!

Percy Jackson Nico di Angelo

Nico Di Angelo from Percy Jackson

Nico Di Angelo is a character in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books written by Rick Riordan. He is a half-blood, specifically the son of Hades. Upon first appearing in The Titan’s Curse, Nico is a curious and nerdy kid who enjoys collecting Mythomagic figures. Once he regains his memories and discovers his parentage, he casts aside his childhood interests and becomes more reserved. His powers are the most fearsome of any demigod. At the end of the series, he comes out and starts dating Will Solace. Nico doesn’t appear in the movie or musical adaptation, so this costume guide is based on the book’s descriptions. Use light makeup to make yourself paler and black eyeshadow to sink in your cheeks.
