Halloween


Here are a couple of photos from one of the makeup designs I created for Halloween! I created this on one of my flat mates at University, and he absolutely loved it. This was achieved by using liquid latex, cotton wool, greasepaints, and 'fresh scab' wound filler. The idea is that he looks a little like two face from Batman. I am really proud of this piece of work I did.


Before heading out for the night, my friend had to pop to shops with the makeup on. He was stopped on the way and in the shop to be asked if they could take photographs of the makeup as they were so impressed by it. When he came back and told me this I was so overwhelmed; I couldn't believe it!

I then saw it for my own eyes when we all went out that night together as a flat. Some people asked if he had shaved his hair off just for this particular night - which goes to show that my makeup skills looked rather realistic!

Once we were in the nightclubs, the professional photographers asked to take him to one side to take photographs of it which also made me feel over the moon. I really enjoyed the experience of having my own makeup work being noticed by others. I felt it was a little claim to fame! I would definitely create this makeup look again; I thoroughly enjoyed it.
