This is #makeup • LAVA MELT • Used @mehronmakeup Celebré Pro HD Cream foundations, @makeupforeverofficial @makeupforeverca flash palette and liquid matte lipsticks for this. Been too tired to create anything substantial lately so here’s another variation of my #melt makeup.

“Mi rostro es un lienzo en blanco donde puedo practicar mi arte”, afirmó a ‘Metro’ la joven de 31 años de Vancouver, que antes trabajaba como profesora.

This is #makeup | When your students ask you to show them how to contour & highlight. ‍♀️ #sculpted #amiskinnyyet • A half #SKULLMAKEUP DEMO on @katianapirlea for my @Blancheworld students on Day 1 of their Extreme Makeup module. Skull makeup is always a good exercise for illusion makeup beginners because it’s extreme contouring and highlighting. If you can make a fleshy face look like it’s all bones and holes using just paint, you can transform a person into anything. Video coming next!

SLICED + SHIFTED FACE in movement • Thank you for the overwhelming amount of love! ❤ Key to doing this type of #trickart is using the color black to mimic space and depth, and using light colors to highlight edges to create the illusion of height, volume and separation. Taking your photo and video at the right angle is also crucial in creating an impactful illusion. If you truly understand the concept of highlighting and shading, I believe you can create anything on any canvas! #makeupvideo _______________ Shift makeup illusion done using @nyxcosmetics matte black liquid eyeliner and Vivid Brights. Inspired by the brilliant illustrations of @miles_art.

Jet lagged • This is #makeup • An extension of my #MELT makeup using @kryolanofficial Aquacolors, @stilacosmetics intense black stay-all-day liquid eyeliner and @makeupforeverofficial @makeupforeverca liquid matte lipsticks. Honestly too tired to produce anything of quality or even take a decent photo but I was dying to create so at least I got it out of my system. Goodnight. #loopyaf

Been doing makeup in front of this mirror inside of my bathroom for more than 3 years now (10+ years if you count those university years when I did my own clubbing makeup, etc) No fancy lights, backdrop or even a chair — I’ve always enjoyed standing in that little gap between my sink and my toilet and painting away for hours. I like tight spaces, it makes me feel secure. Sometimes I have music on, sometimes my cat sits in the sink and falls asleep while watching me… It’s therapeutic. I’ll be moving to a new place soon which means that I will have to adapt to a new painting environment. It’s both scary and exciting at the same time because I’ve grown so attached to my old makeup spot. But I’ll adapt and maybe it will finally motivate me to invest in better equipments. ⭐️ _________________________ "INCEPTION" #makeup illusion inspired by a photoshopped image of Paul Ryan. Used @nyxcosmetics @nyxcosmetics_canada pencil and liquid eyeliners plus matte eyeshadows for this look. Lashes are all @houseoflashes "Knockout" falsies except for the littlest ones that I had to paint on. All hand-painted, took 3 hours.
