I've been practicing Halloween makeup because I have never tried this technique before. I want to be a broken porcelain doll. The first practice all I did was practice painting and shading.
I started with a clean dry face. :)

First I made the Fauxtex using corn starch, cold water, solid vegetable oil, and unflavored gelatin, and a squirt of white grease paint so it would be the color I was painting my face.
Then I took some one ply TP and stuck it to my face where I wanted my cracks. I used some warm Fauxtex to stick it down. I added 3 or 4 more layers and tried to let them set. It took a while for it to fully set up, several hours before I was satisfied with it. I also put a thin layer over my eyebrows, it's easy to get out just tedious.

Once the base was done, I applied the pink blush to my cheeks and drew some light lines with eyeliner along the areas I wanted cracks. I also painted in my eyebrows at this point and did the lower lid eyeliner. I took a small pair of scissors and clipped along the drawn lines where I wanted the deep cracks. I filled in the cut areas with black paint, and then shaded along the outside of the cracks using dark brown and gray eye shadows. Then I applied the fake lashes and blue eye shadow, I also put mascara on my natural lashes so they would blend in with the fake ones better.

Next weekend it will be the real deal and I might share some pictures of the whole costume. :)
