Step 1 | Concealer: Apply concealer under the eye area, along the T-section of the face and over any discolorations. Use Kryolan’s Dermacolor #D1.5 and #D2. |
Step 2 | Foundation: Apply L’Oreal Hydra Perfecte Nude Beige foundation with a sponge over the entire face. Blend well towards the neck and hairline. |
Step 3 | Powder: Set foundation with LeClerc loose powder—Camille, with a sponge or puff. |
Step 4 | Eyeshadow: Apply Il Maquillage pressed eyeshadow—Banana, over the entire eye lid up to the brows and at the inner edge of the eye. |
Step 5 | Highlight the brow bone and the inner edge of the lower lid with Vanilla shadow by M.A.C. For extra highlight on brow bone and in a half moon shape on the upper lid close to the lashes use Chill shadow by M.A.C. (use M.A.C. brush #29.) |
Step 6 | Apply M.A.C.’s Omega shadow as a contour in the crease of the eye. Begin at the outer edge brushing it three quarters of the way across the lid leaving the inner edge of the eye open. Using a blending brush, blend “up and out” with Coffee by Il Maquillage to soften. |
Step 7 | Apply Coffee lightly to the lower lid at the lash line and blend with Omega for balance. |
Step 8 | Eyeliner: Apply Ebony Pencil to the back of the hand. Pick up a small amount with an eyeliner brush and with the tip of the brush apply short, controlled even strokes as close to the lashes as possible. Blend with a small blending brush (clean this brush constantly!) |
Step 9 | Repeat #8 along the lower lid beginning at the center and blending toward the outside corner. |
Step 10 | Blush: To contour, apply Coffee on the temples and below cheekbone with a blush brush. Add Peach dry blush by Shu Uemura on the apple of the cheeks, the temples, the tip of the nose and along the jawline. |
Step 11 | Lips: The lips are lined with Maybelline’s Light Brown lip pencil and filled in with Retro by M.A.C. Set with powder. |
Step 12 | Brows: Carefully line the brows with Maybelline’s Blonde pencil. Starting at the center, draw a light line at the lower edge of the brow up to the arch. Finish the tail of the brow on the top line. Straighten the top line of the brow with the Blonde pencil. Fill in most of the brow with what ever remains on the Omega brush. Note: Leave the inner edge of the brow SOFT! Do not add color to this area. (Shu Uemura #60B can also be used for eyebrows.) |
*Use Maybelline black mascara

Christien Tinsley, creator of Tinsley Transfers: While working on the film Pearl Harbor Mr. Tinsley developed temporary tattoos to create cuts and bruises. He was working on more than 40 extras a day adding cuts and bruises and his creation saved time on the set. Tinsley Transfers, Inc. is now a growing business serving the entertainment industry. The process known as “prosthetic transfer” was invented by Mr. Tinsley for The Passion of the Christ. This process earned him a nomination for an Academy Award. He continues to create innovations and work on a wide range of projects.
Step 1 Place prosthetic transfer face down on skin, press firmly.
Step 2 Wet the back of transfer generously with water
Step 3 Slide of peel backing off.
Step 4 Smooth transfer gently with water and let dry well. Any visible edges can be blended away using 99% alcohol.
Step 6 Gently wipe away any excess no-color powder and seal prosthetic transfer with a spray of make-up sealer.
Step 7 Paint prosthetic transfer with alcoholactivated or cream make-up of your choice.

Makeup: Rick Geyer | Makeup & Wig Design: Paul Hadobas |
Model: Amanda Elliott | Produced for Ben Nye Catalog |
1. The design by Paul Hadobas combines elements both feline and human, with dramatic touches of age and faded glamour.
2. Block out brows with wax. A mottled texture overall is achieved by stippling 3 shades of creme makeup, neutralizing the pink in the skin underneath while keeping it somewhat sheer. The muzzle is based with a red neutralizer mixed with white.
3. Additional creme highlights are added to flatten the nose, and bring out the cheekbones and brow. Creme contours are brushapplied to sides of nose, and softly blended.
4. After setting the blended creme with a neutral powder, the eyes begin to get shaped with an iridescent purple shadow.
5. The feline tip of the nose and muzzle are defined with liquid liner, as is the eye crease, bringing the inner corners in and down. Lite Auguste and Azalea under the lower lash will lend teary-eyed quality.
6. Pressed shadows in shades of taupe and grey feather the lower lash line, and are also used to bring texture to the jaw line. Silver shimmer powder (wet) on the eyelid, and dry blended softly just above the crease.
7. Mouth shape sketched in with pencil. Brows shaped with downward slant, first in pressed shadow in black, then given more crisp graphic “hair” in small short strokes with pancake, in black, gray, and white.
8. Texture to the neck is done with cool brown pancake applied with the narrow end of a pre-cut foam sponge, then softened with pressed shadows in grayer tones. A pair of dramatic false eyelashes, selected for their density and ragged tips are a big part of taking the “glamorous” quality over the top.The wig is added, and blends well into the painted texture at the hair-line. Mole and whiskers have been sketched with a small liner brush in black pancake. The deep red on the lips has a smudge outside the liner to add to the effect of wear and tear. The additional fur-like texture is dry pressed shadow applied with a thick liner brush to taper it, and is complimentary to the painted graphics on the body stocking. (udiciously applied glitter around the eyes make the character come to life under the lights.
