Age Makeup

For my primary research I found a women in her 60's/70's. I did this so I would have a general idea on where I was going to apply wrinkles to my face and so I would be able to see how my face is going to drop.











I began my process my moisturizing and pulling my hair back of course! After this step, I applied basic corrective to my face. (Check my previous post for a tutorial)

Next, I scrunched up my face to see where I would have wrinkles in the future. I traced these wrinkles with my lightest eyebrow pencil. To make the lines look more natural, I made sure that none of them were symmetrical.

To make the wrinkles look more real, add highlight! Add highlight above all horizontal lines and on the outside of vertical lines. Be sure to blend up and out!

Here is the blended highlight look:

I decided to add some wrinkles to my nose. So, here are some pictures!

I then added highlight and shadowing to my neck. I did this so that my neck would look like it was sagging and to look more old!

To create the effect of skin discoloration and aging skin, I added some red blood onto my sponge and applied it to my nose and cheekbones.

For my second to last step, I hid the upper half of my lips. I did this because when you get older your lips get thinner. To create this look, apply foundation to the top half of your upper lip. Then you want to go in with a lip color to fill in the rest.

 

Lastly, I added wrinkles to my lips by using my lightest eyebrow pencil. I found these wrinkle lines by scrunching up my lips.

For my next attempt, I will be sure to blend all of my lines more sufficiently.
