Scars with Sue Mainstone

Today in Sue's class we learned how to apply scars. Sue gave us a demo and then we proceeded with our own application. This was a very straight forward application and is very quick and efficient. The scars look like Edward scissor Hands scars and this application is very believable and effective. 


Health and Safety:
  1. Set up station with couch on the counter.
  2. Set up makeup with palettes and brushes easily accessed.
  3. Cape model.
  4. Make sure all tools are clean and sterilised 
Tools:
  1. Cotton buds.
  2. Couch Roll.
  3. Tissue.
  4. Translucent powder.
  5. Tuplast to create the realistic scars.
  1. Prepare the skin.
  2. You can use a barrier cream at this stage.
  3. Pull the tuplast along the skin, pulling at the ends to create a smooth transition from the Tuplast to the skin.
  4. You then let this dry
  5. You then top with translucent powder this helps the appearance to look skin like.
  6. You can apply colour but I liked the look just with translucent powder.
Outcome and thoughts:

This was really easy and straightforward. The only tricky bit was making the ends blend. This could be great for not only scars but raised patterns if you wanted to get creative. This would be  a really useful tool in my makeup bag!
