Make Up As An Art

Monday, 24 October 2011


This post isn't a review, it isn't a tutorial or advice it's more of a statement about how incredible I feel some make up artists out there are and how I personally believe make up should be viewed as an art form. I decided to write this post yesterday after watching the new dermablend advert featuring zombie boy. How they transformed him to appear without any hint or trace of a tattoo is absolutely outstanding. If interested you can see the video below...


This isn't a long post, it's just a portfolio of some incredible make up I've come across so to speak so enjoy! 

PROMISE PHAN of YouTube. Yes, the pictures below are all the same woman. 


JUDY CHIN & MARGIE DURAND - Creator & Make Up Director of Black Swan 


COMIC BOOK MAKE UP - Source Unknown, found on Pinterest (if anyone knows the original source please link me) 


Finally, a random one I found on the internet, really shows how make up can transform a persons face for different effects. 


Hope you enjoyed this post, what's the most amazing make up you've ever seen? Rebecca x

  2. I am in awe of Promise Phan. I cannot believe she can actually make herself look recognizably like Angelina Jolie. Not like all the celebrity inspired makeup, but she actually looks like her. Amazing.
