Pretty — or pretty scary?
At the intersection of crafting and cosmetics, “yarn makeup” mania is talking over — and talk about a rough corner.
“Say hello to your new sleep paralysis demon,” teased influencer Eleanor Barnes — in a harrowing how-to video that’s now going viral.
The jazzy Gen Zer, best known to her 5 million-plus social media followers as @Snitchery, can be seen meticulously tacking a ball of beige yarn to her face — before decking it out in lipstick, blush and eyeshadow.
Call it Raggedy Ann-inspired glam.
Beauty buffs from NYC and beyond are dolling up with the stringy stuff, thanks to the mind-unraveling trend — the buzzy brainchild of 19-year-old makeup artist Anna Murphy.
The virtual visionary scored over 52 million TikTok views after debuting the avant-garde gussy in mid-March.
She subsequently shared a step-by-step how-to for wannabe divas hoping to achieve the outré look, too.
“For a base, I just used some Mehron white liquid makeup,” explained the crafty Canadian, in a trending tutorial.
“Once that dried, I went over [it] with some Ben Nye spirit gum,” said the teen of the adhesive, which she slathered across her mug, starting at the tip of her nose.
Murphy then began slapping white yarn on her schnoz, creating a tight circular pattern that expanded as she slayed the ultramodern makeover.
Murphy did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for a comment.
As a fab finishing touch, the tastemaker topped off her yarn-plastered cheeks with a rosy rouge — to complement her crimson red lips and blueish eye goop.
“It looked really cool,” Murphy gushed, before admitting, “it felt terrible.”
But Ashlyn Costello, a mom and cosmetologist from Highbridge, told The Post that going rogue with the knitting materials made her feel alive.
“I love experimenting with like new creative makeup styles,” said Costello, 30. “I’ll find any reason to do an exaggerated look, and this yarn makeup trend is definitely up my alley.”
The Bronx beauty completed her masterpiece in just two hours — using a skein of white yarn that she purchased for $1.25 from a local Dollar Tree.
With a few dabs of latex adhesive and her trusty Morphe makeup palette, the millennial accomplished a glow that would make even the most chic crocheted sweater turn green with envy.
“As a New Yorker, that’s what we do,” Costello laughed. “We express our creativity through fashion and beauty.”
