Make Up - Day of the Dead inspired.

Post by iamtheparty » Wed Jun 08, 2011 11:03 pm

I've applied for a make-up thing through work. I have to show off my skills with one 'natural daytime/evening' look and one 'creative' look. I took Mexican Dias de los Meurtos as my inspiration.

And here's my natural look, I think I look so much older in this photo!

I can't decide which photo to send off for the DotD look now!

I'm in love with the DotD makeup! You did it so well, its a look that a whole lot of people try but very few do well in my opinion. I love the colors and that you didn't go overboard with all the squigglies and whatnots :lol: I like the first picture because it shows off the symmetry and you can see all of the details.

Thank you! I wasn't even sure how it was going to turn out before I did it, I've never done anything like it before, but I'm very pleased :)

The DotD is wonderful! I like the colors you chose and everything! That make up is so much fun but I don't have the patience or the coordination to get everything symmetrical. :lol:

You look amazing! I agree on the 3rd pic, your eyes make the make up pop even more.
