I'm a bit late to the Twilight party, having never read any of de bukes and only watched the first movie over the weekend. Since I've not been living under a rock for the last couple of years, though, the hysteria surrounding the franchise hasn't passed me by, and I've been particularly interested in the beauty and make-up cottage industry that's grown up around it.
We've talked before about the fragrance, which reminded us all of something, and of course Leighton Meester recently worked a memorable undead look. And now there is actually a Twilight make-up brand (ka ching!) from which you can purchase items to presumably help you perfect that pale-skinned beauty we see in the movies.
Available online through ASOS, you can take your pick from two lines of Twilight Beauty, Luna or Volturi, which seems to me to be a total marketing gimmick (shocking, right?) since pretty much identical products are available in both ranges. For every Luna mascara (€20.95), there's a Volturi mascara (€14.79); where Luna has a body glow lotion (€32.04), Volturi offer a body shimmer (€18.49).

Seems it's markedly cheaper to side with the immortals. And although the whole thing's pretty gimmicky, I do think that big fans of the saga would get a kick out of the character palettes (€27.11) which contain eye, cheek, and lip colours that purport to capture the spirits of iconic characters Bella, Victoria, or Alice.
For a less corporate take on the whole Twilight thing, you could always turn to Etsy, where it's handmade bath bombs and soaps and shaving creams and lip balms and solid scents and even deodorants a go-go!
