Make-Up Artist magazine is now
accepting student competition applications for the 2009 Los Angeles
International Make-Up Artist Trade Show. For this year's beauty/fantasy
competition, the Gothic theme
refers to the gothic beauty palettes that appeared in recent runway
shows (the emphasis is on creating a pretty, rather than scary, gothic
look). (continued below)
The character/prosthetic competition theme, X-Men Mutants,
pays tribute to Mike Elizalde, a keynote speaker for this year's London
IMATS and a Los Angeles-based make-up designer who worked on X-Men: The Last Stand.
The
competition is open to students of a recognized make-up school and to
those who graduated 12 months prior to the competition. Make-Up Artist will only accept competition entries postmarked by May 22, 2009.
Eight
competitors will be selected for each competition. Cash and/or prizes
will be awarded to first-, second- and third-place winners for each
competition.

| U.K. team collaborates for a different 'Alice in Wonderland' - Tuesday 04 August, 2009 |
| On a cold and cloudy Oxford afternoon, U.K. make-up artist Sarah Terry collaborated with photographer Rebecca Parkes, hairstylist Sean Butt and designer Bibian Blue to create this dark vision of Alice in Wonderland.
The Victorian and Edwardian eras inspired Terry to contrast creams and
gold hues with vibrant reds and smoky blacks. Appliqués, feathers, nail
art and Butts’ elaborate hair design gave the looks texture. This
particular Alice (Samantha Wilkinson) and White Rabbit (Blossom Blois)
look innocent, but there’s a hint of mischief here, too. Let’s follow
them down the path, shall we? |
