FX effects tutorial (beating)
Good evening, everyone. Special effects makeup has always been one of my favorites, but sometimes we don't have all the tools we need to do this style of makeup that is so famous in movies, TV shows, etc. Today I wanted to do makeup simulating bruises around my eyes using only eyeshadow. The colors needed to recreate a bruise are usually red, blue, yellow, and a little beige, although that depends on the type of bruise and how long it has been on the skin. It is difficult to achieve a realistic finish without exaggerating and ending up with a simple stain that has no shape. Even so, I tried to do my best. I hope you like it.
Proceso/Process
Before starting, I wanted to apply concealer and foundation to my face for better pigmentation of the shadows. I also wanted to shape my eyebrows using dark brown gel. To start shaping these bruises, I took red eyeshadow and a blending brush, applied the color subtly to the under-eye area, then applied a little blue to deepen the bruise in the tear duct area. I used beige and yellow in the areas where there is no redness, as bruises tend to have a yellowish hue. I also applied a little purple to the nose and then applied red liquid lipstick right on the tear duct area to better redden that area and give it a natural shine.
Continue intensifying the red areas and also expand the yellow areas a little more. Using the same red lipstick I used before, I applied makeup to the cheekbone and left eyebrow. For my lips, I also wanted to create a cut-shaped wound by applying red eyeshadow combined with a little black, and I also added a faint blue shadow around the lips. I finished by applying a deep red shadow to the waterline to give the eye a more reddish, realistic look.
Final
I slightly reddened my right eye by moving my contact lens around for the sake of photos haha, it didn't hurt me but don't try it at home.
