Makeup Practise

When trying out the makeup for my character I realised that using the Kryolan foundation to even out the skin didn't work well as when I used Glycerin over the top it didn't work very well as the Glycerin mixed with the foundation. This might have been because I didn't powder the face which stopped the Glycerin from just rolling down the face.
I thought making the skin look clear and glowing would suit my chosen character but it doesn't work well with the Glycerin so I will try my models foundation with it and if it doesn't work then I will just use moisturiser and concealer under the eyes and will correct any imperfections.
Also when doing this I feel that the red eyeliner in the waterline would look effective as your eyes tend to get bloodshot and red when your upset. Also when looking at films with someone crying I looked closely at the makeup and where they had used it. The typical places tend to be the nose, the cupids bow and under the eyes and brows. I wanted to try using the glycerin under the nose and from the inner corner of the eyes to make the model look upset and flustered.

When creating tears i got Glycerine onto a brush and dabbed it onto the skin until there was enough to fall down the face.

Health and Safety
It is important to keep the Glycerine away from the eyes as if it gets into the eyes it can hurt the model which will ruin the makeup and can hurt the models eyes.
