#mehron makeup

[famousartistduh]

My Mehron face paint got here, and I had to immediately try it out. I'm not gonna lie, I feel kinda nice wearing it. 😊 It was funny seeing my teeth look so yellow in contrast to the white. Like am I entering my Joker era? 🤣 This is my first time trying corpse makeup, so I wasn't really serious about it. Idk doing makeup is usually so relaxing for me. The foundation smells a little like play-doh to me, lol. Should I try some?

Products used: Mehron barrier spray, followed by white Mehron Paradise AQ. I used the shade Legacy from Live Tinted on my eyes. On my lips, I used the shade Caviar from MAC.

I didn't want to buy greasepaint but I did. The other white base foundation I had was water activated... It comes off with sweat. I need something sturdier. 🤣

Also! My clown makeup came yesterday :0D

I will be experimenting with it soon. I also went ahead and ordered some setting powder for it since I have a particularly oily face!

Would love, love, love to see any clown looks you guys have done! If you want to send them to me or dm them to me, I don't mind.

:0)))

As always, have a fantastic day! Honk Honk!!!

This is so cool!!!

This is your first cosplay??? I seriously never would have guessed that, it looks so good. I'd love to see the little details that didn't get caught on camera sometime, if you ever get around to snapping some pics of the pieces perchance.

My first ever comic con! And first cosplay too. Of course it's gonna be my boy :] Ramblings about the process are under the cut(Let me know if?? You would want me to elaborate with process images for any of the steps?)

The costume took me forever to make, as I've never done any machine sewing, sculpting, fabric dying or spray painting before but learning all of these was so fucking fun!! I never realised just how many different skills go into making a cosplay but it was so worth it!!!

Almost all of the clothes(except the hat) were purchased first as bases, but all of the detailing was added by me. All of the fabric used was originally just scraps that I was given for free so I needed to learn how to dye and dye all of the stars, they were originally white.

The sewing machine was its own beast that brought me tons of frustration from the lack of skill and knowledge (it was devastating to find out that 95% of fuck ups were my fault and not the machine's lmao). But as a result, a hat sewn from scratch, all of the fur trims, embroidery on the corset, stars and the collar(which is very hard to see on the pictures unfortunately) was all added manually. The stars and the stripes(on the back of the cape) were attached using heat-and-bond adhesive (I WISH I knew about such thing just when I started working on this. It would save me so much time and nerves.)

Then I found out about polymorph(mouldable plastic) and it has become the next thing I wanted to learn, to sculpt the claws and the fangs(yes, they're handmade jfksjs). The claws I then primed and painted in trillion coats because I wasn't satisfied with the colour of the spray paint. The fangs I moulded to my own teeth and then stained with tea to match the colour of my teeth :)c

As for makeup, I used Mehron Paradise water activated paints. At first I wanted to try to save money and bought myself Snazaroo instead, which unfortunately turned out to be a waste. Snazaroo didn't hold on my face for longer than 2 hours, cracking and peeling awfully. Mehron on the other hand survived 11 hours of me smiling, talking, emoting and such and didn't even crease at the smile lines(I'm actually shocked about that). It obviously works like any other makeup which means your skin texture and wrinkles won't go anywhere but Mehron's elasticity pleasantly surprised me. It did obviously smear from sweat and saliva(if you're eating and licking your lips) but if you don't touch the skin it just dries again, self setting. But if it's dry it's fully smear-proof. Highly recommend!

And last but not least, I've decided against painting my hands as it was very risky that I will stain everything I touch at the smallest hint of sweat. So instead I got myself gloves-tights(? Not sure how they're called but it's made from the same fabric as tights) and painted them with normal acrylic paint(did you know you could dye fabric with acrylic paint? I personally didn't), then heat set with an iron and voilà, they're reusable, my hands are not stained after an exhausting day and I don't stain everything I touch. It worked wonderfully which honestly was a surprise as I was really sceptical that acrylic paint will somehow stay in place.

I think this whole thing took me minimum of 6 months with big-big breaks for my school and life in general. But I'm really proud! This project taught me so many new skills and I couldn't have been happier about learning new knowledge, even if it sucked to fail in the meantime.

Everyone at the con was really nice and gave me a large confidence boost even tho it was my first time and I had no idea what I was doing. Taking photos with other people was really awkward/new for me as I hate cameras so I really had no idea how to pose/behave in front of one. But that's okay I think. This whole experience definitely made me want to do this again, so I think that will come with experience. Thank you for reading this far, hope you enjoyed this little summary :)

Ben Nye vs. Mehron - Clown White Review

I'm posting this because I couldn't find a review that actually compared the two:

Mehron's CW is a lot creamier, takes less work to spread.

Ben Nye requires warming up. It's a thicker and paste like but the coverage is slightly more opaque

They both seem to set well with the Mehron colourset powder in neutral. Ben Nye has their own powder but I bought this with CW Lite which wasn't up to par.

Nitpicky part: the Mehron side wore down a bit quicker, patches of skin seem to fade more and flake with movement. Ben Nye's was slightly more resistant

Mehron's CW doesn't have a strong smell - very neutral actually. Both are perfum free but BN's CW has a slight sheep scent. I believe both products have lanolin but the smell was definitely present in Ben Nye's version.

Both benefit from patting rather than smearing to ensure even coverage that won't crack or flake off later on. From what I've gathered, you're getting the perfect white coverage with packing on the face powder rather than the CW cream but I've only used it once. Some people paint rather than follow the instructions on both versions.

Overall, I prefer Ben Nye by a slight margin but if you end up with only Mehron I think you'd be fine. Just powder that shit then dust off the excess. Alternatively, both brands have a light version and the Mehron's one is vegan but the coverage isn't as opaque I find it doesn't hold well. I didn't bother trying the Ben Nye one. It looks fine in photos captured by my phone though. Lol I took many selfies with that on even though it looked like shit up close.

In terms of pricing, I found the 7 oz from Mehron is like 10 bucks less than the Ben Nye 2.25 oz but prices may vary where you buy these products. I got these from amazon but it may be cheaper elsewhere.

This lady does a great job at explaining how to use CW and I believe she briefly mentioned in the second video that Mehron didn't perform as well as Ben Nye's. I wished I watched her videos before buying anything.

the scar stretching from the bottom-right side of his face, over his nose, and to his left eyebrow was caused by a customer at one of the bars he used to bartend at. the circumstances had nothing to do with him, he only happened to get in the way in an attempt to prevent the situation from escalating.

two very drunk customers squabbling over one thing or another. one thought it would be a good idea to start some action movie bar fight, complete with broken beer bottles, and in his panic as an employee - and a manager, at that! - faith leapt over the counter and got between them. his interjection caused something of a chain reaction and before he knew it, one of the broken bottles slashed across his face.

he was never fairly compensated, and he quit working there shortly after the incident. the two involved were, however, both arrested and spent the night in the drunk tank at the very least.
