Wait, She Turns Herself Into Cartoons and Monsters?!

So, Annie's not just good at makeup - she's seriously famous for it, with over 2 million fans glued to her TikTok and other socials. Her face-painting skills aren’t just makeup, they’re like straight-up art.

Her big break came when she slapped on a cosplay from Rugrats (remember Cynthia?) and suddenly, bam! Her fan count exploded. That’s when she realized cartoons and cosplay was her jam.

Special effects makeup (or SFX for short) is like movie magic on your skin - think monsters, superheroes, or fake ouchies. Annie’s DIY versions are so good you'd wanna believe she’s starring in a blockbuster, not just doing TikTok.

She calls herself an “unprofessional makeup artist,” which basically means she’s self-taught and awesome. Turns out, all those childhood hours drawing cartoons came in handy big time.

But wait, there’s more! Annie doesn't stop at face paint, she glues on paper bits and props too, completing these cartoonish transformations like a boss. It’s like watching a comic book come to life.

Her routine? First, she glues down her eyebrows, pops on a bald cap (yep, a bald cap!), then sketches out the character. It’s all about making her face a blank canvas before the magic starts.

Each of these looks takes between three to five hours, sometimes longer! Her Boo from Monsters, Inc. transformation took a whopping 12 hours. And she never does a rehearsal - what you see is her first and only shot. Talk about pressure!

She swears by Mehron paints because they’re gentle on skin. And the removal? She posts videos of that too, making the 'makeup meltdown' almost as satisfying as the final look.

Despite all the glitz, Annie keeps it real and tells everyone you don’t need fancy gear to have fun. She started with cheap paints and dollar store posters. Creativity beats cash, hands down.
