The Make-Up Room: DIRTYING DOWN


Equipment needed:
-       Kryolan tooth enamel
-       Supracolour palette
-       Methylated spirit

NOTES TO CONSIDER:
-       The story behind it -> why is there make-up broken down? How has it happened/why has it happened?
-       What kind of dirt
-       Think of their surroundings
-       Make-up is dictated by the clothes they wear
-       Everywhere in shot to be made up/ dirtied down
-       Hair => use brill cream to make greasy
-       Put into the root and pull through the hair
-       Dry shampoo will dull down the hair
-       There are different colour dirt sprays that you can buy

How to:
STAINING TEETH
-       Make sure the person doesn’t have teeth caps and note that you can apply the product straight from the bottle
-       Begin by drying the tooth with a cotton bud
-       Kryolan tooth enamel comes in many different colours, such as gold, silver, black and enamel, so you can create any desired effect, whether it be rotting teeth, stained teeth, missing teeth or gold teeth
-       Apply the necessary colours for your desired effect using a small brush
-       To remove the tooth enamel, use methylated spirit with a cotton bud
DIRTYING DOWN
-       Use your supracolour palette and mix your colours to create different effects
-       Mix the grease based products with moisturizer to make them easier to work into the skin
-       For sunburnt skin -> use reds, and mix with a small amount of brown
-       For dirtiness -> use browns and greens, to create the effect of having fallen over
-       When dirtying the hands, make sure their fingers are bent, so that all products go into the creases of the knuckles as well

EVALUATION: This was fun to do as you could add anything and be quite messy with the make-up, yet still come out with a good finish.  Next time I will work at creating different effects on the teeth, as this time I just focused on trying to block them out.
