Swanlake ballet madness


Have you even seen the wicked movie "Black Swan", where the ballerina that was playing the swan ended up being mentally ill? I watched it when I was around twelve or thirteen and it really twisted my stomach. But now I see all the amazing makeup and costume work, and I feel so inspired.
This look is supposed to be when the Swan is transformed into the evil swan, and the blue around her eyes is her transforming into the evil swan. It's a really theatrical inspired look, and is supposed to be beautiful, not realistic that she's actually transforming.


I pretty much used waterbased paints for this, but if I were to do this it again I would do it with a white grease foundation because I had trouble getting one nice even finish.

What did you think of the look?
