A woman has managed to marvelously transform her husband and some other willing test subjects into Disney’s most infamous villains by simply using makeup.

Audrey Logeais (31) a French makeup artist who has worked as a TV designer for the last nine years, has always been an avid fan of Disney and Pixar, having studied applied arts and animation at university.

“This made me want to go further and I reworked the Jafar make-up on my partner. I posted the outcome online and I got a great amount of extremely positive feedbacks from friends and co-workers.

Audrey says there are a variety of things that appeal to her about her newly chosen profession.

“The creative aspect of it is what appeals to me above all. I love the aesthetics, the photography, the atmosphere, the composition.

“My current goal is to work as a makeup artist on fantasy characters for feature-length movies. So, Peter King, if you’re reading me...”
