Makeup Artist Mag

On twitter I found a makeup artist that does makeup for magazines, her stuff is quite amazing:


On twitter her name is MakeupArtistMag.

She does a mixture of pretty makeup to Scary makeup that looks like something out of horror films.

Some of er stuff is quite similar to the film 'Avatar' and some looks like out of the film 'Silent Hill'

History of Makeup

History of makeup

Egyptians used to create the world's first cosmetics to the products of today that can do everything from hide pores, smooth complexions, and turn the pale green of your eyes a shade of emerald, makeup has been apart of humankind for thousands of years. Women used arsenic, lead, mercury, and even leeches to give themselves the pale appearance.

Personally, I think people nowadays have got too selfish over makeup and use it everyday when they dont need to such as; fake tan. People before used fake tan for dancing competitions and other activities but they didnt wear makeup whilst athome etc.
In Japan, Girls wore lipstick made of crushed petals to paint the eyebrows and edges of the eyes as well as the lips and sticks of wax, a softer version of the sumo wrestlers' hair wax were used by geisha as a makeup base.

Makeup Primer

 I think makeup users should use this to keep on your makeup for the whole day without smudges. It helps your foundation stay in the same place where you put it without it going patchy. Primer can be very expensive but it is worth it!

Bullethole

 A bullethole i did when i first started doing makeup in my spare time :')

Films and Plays

Chronicle (2012)
Simone Stubbs is the key makeup artist in this film, i think the fighting scene at the end has the best makeup quality in the film.

Shaun of the Dead (2004)
Candice Banks is the key makeup artist in this film, It is meant to be a comedy but looking at the makeup which is still groosum still scares people and thats what i love about it.

The Amazing Spiderman (2012)
Aimee Macabeo is the special effects makeup artist, I find 'The Lizard' is amazing quality in this film with the amount of makeup she used.

Alice in Wonderland (2010)
Leslie Devlin makes the makeup in this film perfectly to match the character which i find useful.

The Hunger Games (2012)
Nikoletta Skarlatos does a variety of makeup with overdone pretty makeup to teenagers getting blown up and stabbed etc.


Romeo and Juliet (play)

Wigs are used in this play quite commonly for juliet because she has very long hair and a different colour than other people.

King Lear (play)
This play uses wigs as it is an old fashioned play with a mix of old and young people which is difficult for people to have them hairstyles.

The man that did the make-up in this magazine is an amazing make-up artist to me personally, Joe Nazzaro. Here is an example of his work, to me it looks like some sort of face tattoo.


Famous Makeup Artist

This make-up is done by a famous woman called Carla Fabrizi, I found her work quite pretty, she has her own brands of make-up which is useful.
