2.) This
is a makeup I did on my girlfriend Aundrea. It consists of a nose,
forehead and two cheeks. I glued all the appliances with Beta Bond Plus,
which I used for the first time and it worked very well for me. It smells better than
Prosaide and seems to be thinner which is good because its easier to
spread. It didn't remove in clumpy pieces like Prosaide
does.

3.) This
is during the beard laying process on the cheeks which I used a
self matted Telesis 5 Adhesive. I
removed the makeup with Super Solv Plus which smells nicer than any other remover
I've used and it does the job well. It didn't leave her sensitive skin oily
afterwards - I was very satisfied. |
 |
4.)
I colored the entire makeup with the following Skin Illustrator colors:
Vein Tone, Olive Adjuster, Prime Yellow, Rice paper, Rose adjuster 2,
Ultra blue and Espresso 1. I also used two
custom skin tone airbrush colors.
|
 |
5.) I used
Green Marble Concentrate mixed with Attagel for eyelids and neck.
Finally,
I sealed the makeup with Green Marble Selr Spray. |

7.) Here is a shot of
actor
Chris Kelly before the "Sickboy" makeup application where he wears a gelatin
nose, chin, cheeks, dentures, wig, and tattoos. The makeup was
finally sealed with Green Marble. |

8.) "I airbrushed a
thinned out mixture of Prime
Yellow, White
& Rice Paper in a broken up
pattern on the face and appliances. I airbrushed a thinned out version of
Rose
Adjuster 2 and a touch of Ultra
Blue to darken it. Next I used a mixture of Golden
Ochre and Espresso 1 thinned out with a little
alcohol. Then a mist of Natural
1 and Rice
Paper and a mist of Olive
Adjuster 1 mixed with a touch of Vein
Tone. I glued on the false tattoos and sealed with
Green Marble. I glued on the wig with
Telesis 5 Adhesive. |

9.)
"This makeup consists of 7 overlapping gelatin pieces that include a
chin, cheeks, nose & upper lip, forehead, lower lip and neck.
The pieces were first sealed with Green
Marble Sealer then I
colored the pieces with Skin
Illustrator airbrush liquids. I
first used Vein Tone, then
Rice Paper,
Rose Adjuster 2, Lao
2 and lastly misted with Natural
1. The makeup was sealed again with
Green Marble." |
