Lily Collins shared a series of behind-the-scenes videos of the makeup process that transformed her into a burn victim for her character in her new film MaXXXine.
The horror film, the third part of the X trilogy, premiered in theaters on Friday.
Collins, 35, previously shared a number of “deranged” BTS photos from the horror film and is now taking her fans through the lengthy process of her terrifying transformation.
“GRWM – @maxxxinemovie edition,” she wrote alongside the clip on social media.
‘A big shout out to the glam and prosthetics teams for getting us all ready for the slasher look,’

The process began with makeup artists using the Emily in Paris star’s flawless complexion as a blank canvas.
They began applying glue and textured plasters to her face and neck to create an uneven surface.
Some of the prosthetics were removed as technicians searched for the perfect look.
They carefully used red and black paint to make Collins look like she had been burned in a fire.
ZZ Top’s Sharp Dressed Man played beneath the video, with the actress calling the end result “terrifying.”
“Ouch,” friend Nina Dobrev wrote in response to the transformation.
“This looks so real! I’m so excited to see it,” one fan posted.
Collins plays actress Molly Bennett in the film set in 1980s Hollywood, where Maxine Mink (Mia Goth) is searching for her happiness.
