IF YOU HAVEN’T READ WILD TYPE BY @merkase YET, I SUGGEST YOU HOP ON IT CAUSE YOU’RE MISSING OUT
Here’s some more photos from the impromptu Wild type make up test run. Unfortunately both my liquid latex and rigid collodion dried out on me, and so I did not have the chance to attempt scar make up. Not gonna lie, I was looking forward to that the most. Though I do have some WT photoshoot (?) pics from AR2016 that have the scarring make up done
For the future I’ll probably explore an option of gloves for this, since it took a good 40min to apply the make up to my left hand. I cant imagine how long (and shitty) it’ll be to do my right hand.
Materials used:
daiso fake nails, shaped and painted before hand
daiso nail tape adhesive- the one I got was really good for temporary applications, were it held on very well (for the first application) and was easy to remove
face paint/ body paint, mainly black and white
some old smokey eye shadow pallet, used black (non shimmer), white (shimmer), and silver (shimmer)
piece of netting from a plastic loofah (to get the pattern)
Ben Nye final seal, matte
shitty brush that came with the face paint, good quality fan brush, Qtips
I just saw this really, really belatedly and kind of screamed. I literally almost missed it because I haven’t been watching my dash but decided to skim through my email before deleting everything and I’m SO GLAD I DID. Holy shit this is s O … I don’t have words, just feelings. A lot of feelings. TwT
I HOPE IM CLOSE TO WHAT YOU PICTURED HIM TO BE. The funny thing is that when i first started reading WT i had that fleeting thought, ‘hmmm this sounds like a cool idea’ and then my brain went ‘dooooo itttttt’ in a frat boy manner a second later. maybe one day i’ll go balls to the walls and pull off the grumpy drake in a bathrobe and socks look 😂
