Meet Mina Tore, my character for the Special FX 201 final photoshoot. She’s a punk Minotaur hybrid who’s an outcast in a post apocalyptic world. She likes The Cure and veggie burgers. She dislikes your bullsh*t 🤟🏻 hair and makeup by me @jennav_makeup model: @photosfromthegravey photography: @ponyandbrett #specialfxmakeup #makeup #makeupartist #makeupdesignory #prosthetics #faunears #minotaur #mythology #character #hair #photoshoot #photography #punk #eyeliner #newyork #nyc #misfit (at Make-Up Designory Schools) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt7C7W4FXTC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2m3xu1rriqxg

Feeling very creative and nostalgic today. My Avant Garde look is based off of designs I used to doodle in my notebooks back in middle and high school. Feels great to see it come to life!

Today in Beauty 101 we did Avant Garde airbrush makeup. We were given the theme Cirque Du Soleil. My inspiration for this look was from the lines of the circus tents, the sun in the logo, and zebras! @makeupdesignory #makeupdesignory #makeup #cirquedusoleil #avantgarde #facepainting #airbrush #blackandwhite #art #fashion #makeupartistry #zebra #circus (at Make-up Designory) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpaufafh5rY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ut4ce0izkz1k
