I swear there is NO editing here! (well, I won't lie, I cut the image to make it square).
I was preparing myself for a photoshoot, and after I painted one eye and put one of the contact lenses, I was like, 'woah, makes a difference'. Had never really realized until now. Pale perfect skin, blue feline eye, big lips. And then freckled face, brown eye, no eyelashes.
Bam, cleaned my right side and took a picture. Sweet.

Just look at what make-up can do.

This is beautiful. Both sides. Different looks for different occasions, perhaps. I am wondering though, as I am on an eternal search to find a good foundation, what brand are you using? I have many acne scars that I want to dull until they heal. Your foundation paled out your freckles really nicely without looking cakey- It looks just like skin.

Your make-up skills are superb, but I will always love the contrast between your clean/make-up face the best. The blue eye really makes it stand out even better. Like 2 different people!

Nice! I've seen this done before but the expression on your face and choice of make up helps it to sand out more than others btw what mascara did you use?

It's an interesting observation- and is rather inspiring. I think I'll try to keep this piece in mind when doing my drawings- So many variations, even for one character, could be....

I actually put my hand to the screen and honestly when you cover up one side, it looks like 2 different people. It's shocking. The power of makeup.

I love this honestly. The eyes are fantastic and the skin is very well done The only thing though is the red on the lips. It sees a little sloppy but it is hardly noticeable. On the other hand the Eyebrows are extremely well done.

There's something about natural beauty that attracts me more than someone who hides their imperfections. Maybe it's the indifference.

Hahaha I'm so glad this isn't another rant on how nobody needs makeup and how the people who wear it are full of themselves/insecure I get a lot of flack because I put on makeup all of the time. Come on people, this is an art site, shouldn't we be embracing all types of art, including makeup?

I'm just kind of laughing at everyone trying to "coddle" her or whatever by saying they like her natural side more, that's cool and stuff but she IS clearly a make up artists so saying that kind of like saying she doesn't do good make up work which she obviously does.

Black-Allison In reply to AkariAcanthus [2012-05-13 15:04:28 +0000 UTC]

Agreed. When people tell me I look nicer without makeup I say "thank you, I know I'm pretty kthnx." I know they're only trying to be nice but seriously, but makeup is really like clothes. It's the same as saying my fashion sense is horrible.

As I mentioned before, the image is an eye-catcher. The concept behind it is a touchy one, but in all honesty I love seeing before and after shots. I think they are much better when presented in this fashion. Basically you made one image out of what would normally be two, and it's dramatic. I'm suggesting this as a DD.

You do realize she's a makeup artist...so essentially what you're saying is she's bad at what she does.

And both halves are beautiful, I love the eyeliner style on the second half, and this is just fantastic. :3
