Trying out makeup for the upcoming show. For times like these the first place I go to is... *drumroll* ...MAC Cosmetics. When it comes to colour, especially stage colour, nothing beats MAC for me ... Though it makes me wonder what makeup Cirque du Soleil makeup artists are using. I'd like to start working with face paints sometime.
I walked into the MAC store and asked them to play with my eyes. (I was going for a grunge, feverish look.)
It reminded me that there are finally MAC stores in Japan now, and It makes me wonder if people in Japan also just walk up to the counter and ask for theatre makeup to be done on their faces. I'm pretty shy...but most girls in Japan are probably even more reserved than I am when it comes to that kind of stuff - forget guys!
I visited one of the stores when I was in Tokyo last time...and MAC prices are almost double what they are in Canada. I checked up on the internet and found out MAC was first founded in Canada, but sadly the U.S. pricing is still cheaper, probably because MAC is headquartered in New York.
...So then I played around with what my eye looked like on camera, and this was the effect. (It's the opposite eye because one picture was taken in the mirror and the other was not.) Totally changed my grunge look into something else:
