Breaking Bad FOTD

Alright, here’s something a little different. I created a stage-makeup style look using only cosmetic products. This was inspired by Breaking Bad and the effects methamphetamines have on the body. Google “meth psa” for more real life examples!

Before

This is me with my normal makeup on, after getting in from college.

After

Yikes. Monthlong meth binging = not good for the soul or the face.

Another for good measure.

Runny eyemakeup and scabs, a winning day look?

My Top Tips for Tweaker Pretty:

1. Line your waterline with lipliner to give your eyes a tired, bloodshot look.
2. Contour, contour, contour. Not with bronzer though- use a greyer, cooler shade. I used NYX Taupe and a grey eyeshadow.
3. Create nasty crusty scabs using a mud face pack and a red pigment.
4. Use dark smudgy eyemakeup and smoosh it around- splashing water works well to emulate natural patterns of wear.
5. Use purples, greys, blues and greenish yellow (depending on skin tone) to fake severe dark circles
6. Lighten your lips and cheeksvwith concealer or pale lipstick. No healthy rosiness allowed!
7. Smoke meth for extended periods of time. Just kidding, please don’t do this.
