Look 2: The Clown Statue/Doll


This is the facechart I will take with me to the shoot so I can complete my look how I require and use the right products etc.

(why)
(products etc)

Make up-
  • Base - White matte face, only on the face so it looks like a mask (in contrast with the natural skin colour of the body) Standard matte white clown face with a masked look to show that their identity is being hidden - Illamasqua matte primer, Illamasqua liquid white foundation and Illamasqua translucent loose powder.
  • Cheeks - Slight contouring under cheek bones To give a bit of angle/shape to the face without distracting from the main features Illamasqua powder blush in 'Disobey'.
  • Brows - Whited out - to make the face look a bit more odd and so they dont distract from the pattern on the eyes - Kryolan Supracolor in white. .
  • Eyes - Black and white checkerboard pattern (one eye pattern smaller than the other) Reflecting the sort of patterns clowns have printed on their clothes, the pattern also distorts the brow which looks a bit odd Kryolan Aquacolor in black (and an eyebrow brush to 'scratch' the edges of the outer squares)
  • Lashes - Nothing on the lashes because then would be lost in the pattern
  • Lips - Small amount of red smudged out from the inside of the lips, stapled up lips look (in a line across the lips) (including a bit of would where the staples have pierced the skin) Only a small bit of colour to indicate that the lips are there, nothing bolder because it would detract from the staples feature, staples show that the clown can't talk so can only be judged by look, the wound at the base of the staples show the element of pain Kryolan Supracolor in bright red (mixed to a similar colour to the nose), DUO glue, silver staples and wound filler
  • Nose - Bright red end of the nose, brushed upwards - a red nose is a key feature of a clown and it also adds a pop of colour Kryolan Supracolor in bright red (mixed aswell) (brush flicked upwards)
Hair-
  • Front 2.5 inches of hair from hairline sectioned off, loosely curled and then roughly pinned, back section of hair backcombed and then pinned upwards, everything is sprayed with hairspray A more fashion interpretation of the classic clown hair style, bold colour to stand out - Paddle brush, sectioning comb, big salon clips, curling tongs, hair grips, backcombing comb, hair pins and hairspray.
