Located in the heart of the entertainment capital, MUD Los Angeles campus offers more than amazing weather. At our most recent Open House in June, graduate Emily Peck took 1st place in the David De Leon MUD Makeup Competition, granting her a 1-on-1 lunch with the Emmy Award winner. Emily was successful in selecting a beauty makeup image from De Leon’s professional website and re-created an awesome inspired look! Mr. De Leon is a popular guest artist and speaker at makeup schools, conventions, and seminars worldwide. Also, say good-bye to traditional classroom whiteboards, the LA campus upgraded and updated all classrooms with digital Sharp AQUOS Boards – which are being received positively by students and faculty. Melissa 'Missy Munster' Stell is featured on Season 9 of the SyFy show Face Off, a competition/elimination series where special effects make-up artists participate in elaborate challenges for a grand prize and the honor of being Hollywood's next great effects artist. In addition, NY graduate Brittany Leslie has been getting some Special Effects refreshers here at the LA campus to compete in Season 10. Graduate Maddie Hill and her team were nominated for Best Hair and Makeup for her work on a short film project, Birdie's Song, at the 168 Film Festival.

From its humble beginnings, Make-up Designory has grown to become the largest educational system exclusively focused on make-up artist training. A strict adherence to educational standards, curriculum development and teacher training have helped to create a standard form of make-up education that can be found in classrooms around the world. The same curriculum, high standards and MUD-certified teachers can be found in MUD’s main campuses in New York and Los Angeles, through their network of partner schools operating in the Unites States or internationally in MUD Studios.

MUD Studio provides a perfect mix between classroom and retail. Each MUD Studio is locally based and managed and features a modern showroom where the right MUD product can be found for every occasion and customer type. With every product in MUD Studio comes the knowledge of a MUD Make-up Artist. Dedication to a knowledge based product line is essential to the MUD Studio experience. According to Tate Holland, MUD CEO, “we don’t want to do just makeovers in our stores, we want each make-up application to become an individual make-up class.” Beyond individual tutoring sessions, the store also hosts a number of smaller workshops that are geared to the needs of the everyday woman and make-up enthusiast alike.

The education does not stop in the store. It travels to the classroom where aspiring make-up artists are taught the fundamentals of make-up application and the theory necessary to adapt make-up techniques to differing conditions - from the retail floor to a film set to a brides special day. Courses are derived from the same curriculum that can be found at Make-up Designory’s main campuses, but are divided in such a way as to allow the student to progress through the various subjects at their own pace. The courses are divided into two levels: Level I is comprised of Beauty Essentials and the completion of this course allows the student to move on to the classes that comprise Level II, which include classes in Airbrush Make-up, Studio Make-up, High Fashion Make-up Trends, and Bridal Make-up. One of the unique features of the program is that students are able to not only choose courses that they feel will benefit them, but to take courses at different Studios in varying cities. While the courses remain the same at each MUD Studio, Partner School or Main Campus, traveling to different MUD locations allows the student to add culture and life experiences to their make-up education and artistic expression.

Make-up Designory has courses and groups of courses to meet the needs of licensed professionals. For this reason, al l classes require

Beauty Essent ials as a prerequisi te. Al l classes are also of fered as cont inuing educat ion for beauty professionals. These courses have been developed to build upon one another, so that students wil l ben-efi t from the combined materials and the progressive nature of the

curriculum. MUD has created groups of classes to i l lustrate possible combinat ions. These groups are designed to provide comprehensive

t raining in various aspects of make-up art ist ry.P lease note that some classes may not be available at al l locat ions.

A Cert i f icate and Card are awarded for successful complet ion of any course or group of courses.

Reykjavik, Iceland

∙ If you can’t afford a visit to the Moon - Iceland is a very reasonable second choice.

∙ It’s a country for Nordic lights, whale watching, outdoor swimming, and exotic

experience in food, landscape and natural phenomena.

∙ If you are into high fashion and design, you can explore a great selection of designer-

and exceptional contrasts in landscape and environment - all within reasonable

distance from Reykjavik. Weather is unpredictable and changes frequently - if you

don't like it, just wait a few minutes.

∙ “Their resourcefulness, quirkiness, interconnectedness and warmth is unparalleled;

on this research trip, every day presented human stories and interactions that

rivaled Icelandic nature for beauty.” (Carolyn Bain for Lonely Planet about

Icelanders). But you might have to look for them, as the country is so popular at the

moment, that you are more likely to meet another tourist rather than an Icelander.

∙ The soon to be launched MUD Studio Reykjavik is located in a brand new location

with only one short bus distance from central Reykjavik. It is a great opportunity to

visit Iceland and learn make-up at the same time.

Milano, Italy ∙ As a symbol of the Italian dream, Milan has always been a city of career opportunities, where synergies between a long-standing tradition of culture, arts, design and fashion make this vibrant city a fertile ground to experience and develop creativity, especially in makeup.

Erection of the Cross”. Also, the typical beguinage is one

of the most beautiful in Flanders.

on the site of the “Broeltorens”, two medieval towers

that are the only remaining witnesses of the former city

fortifications. Nowadays, Kortrijk is a very dynamic city of

about 80.000 inhabitants with a solid entrepreneurial

image and flair.

getting lost down winding lanes and admiring

the grand architecture. Boutique stores, cafes,

bars and restaurants line the narrow streets.

∙ There are loads of events in the city

so there’s always something going on.

∙ The position of Slovenia is perfect: you’ve got

the seaside, Alpine peaks, rolling hills and

sparkling rivers and lakes. The locals joke that

in May you could spend the morning skiing on

the snowy peaks and then spend the afternoon

swimming in the sea.

∙ Slovenes are incredibly friendly and welcoming

with a great sense of humour. And they are

ridiculously good looking. ;-)

Is it really that good? Lonely Planet think so and

Europe to visit in 2014. Ljubljana also became the

European Green Capital of the world for 2016.

Make-up Designory believes that every make-up mo-ment is a teaching moment. MUD is a company born from education. Whether teaching a class of aspiring make-up artists or an individual about her own make-up, educa-tion is central to the experience that is MUD. For nearly 20 years Make-up Designory has trained make-up artists from around the world. First at their school in Los Angeles then at the New York Campus. Adding to the company’s educa-tional reach, MUD Studios was developed and a network of MUD Partner Schools. Today Make-up Designory is the largest educational provider of its kind. The difference can be found in the quality of the educational systems, the curriculum and ultimately the teachers that are certified by trained and certified by MUD to teach the courses.

It is with this same focus on education and informa-tion that Make-up Designory is using to teach wom-an about their own make-up, their uniqueness and ultimately how to apply make-up to themselves.

MUD has created and has successfully offered a series of classes and one on one tutoring sessions to meet the educational and make-up needs of the everyday woman. The central idea is to not just do a make-over but provide the person with a learned skill that will help them to better apply their own make-up.

The classes range in duration from one to three and half hours.

The classes follow the same methodology and phi-losophy that have made Make-up Designory the global leader in make-up education and cover trends, techniques and events.

The classes can be offered to as few as one person or to a group. In order to take a class the participant pays a nominal fee that can then be used as a credit to buy MUD cosmetics.

Vanja Djuran1. You just got back from a photo shoot in Vienna, how has the rest of this year been for you?There have been so many things happening at once for

MUD, like opening new MUD Studios, developing new

products, MUD Art Magazine photo shoots and teaching…

like I always say, “this year has been great!” If I keep

repeating that sentence every year, then the sky is the limit.

2. What is a greater challenge, teaching future make-up artists or training make-up artists to become teachers?Teaching IS a big challenge, and god knows I love it! When

it comes to students, I teach them how to do make-up. With

teachers it is a little bit different, I teach them how to teach

make-up. The most important thing is to care about your

students' success and to make sure that your students are

learning. Actually for me, to answer your question, there is no

difference between the two.

3. What type of feedback do you usually receive for your work as an instructor and as a make-up artist?I am really trying hard to remember some negative feedback

or comments in order to not sound pretentious, but I cannot

remember one. I think once you realize that you are learning

every day, you simply enjoy and love what you do, only good

things get back to you.

4. What are your thoughts on creativity in a commercial world?Thinking as an artist doesn’t have anything to do with

commercial theoretically, because being an artist is ex-

pressing your inner emotion, your inner-self and person-

al point of view. Technically artistic presentations have a

great visual impact on people which is exactly what an

artist wants to achieve. Basically, the question answers

itself - finding the balance between creativity and living in

a commercial world is the key to success.

34

5. What is the creative process you follow when developing a new make-up collection or look?Whenever I am inspired I immediately start drawing on a face

chart because I don’t want to let the idea disappear. Then I

always have a stock of looks to choose from.

Research is a never ending process for a make-up artist, you

always need to be on track with new collections and trends.

I am always questioning who is designing the trends and if

it’s necessary to fully follow them. I prefer to add a lot of

my personal touches and transform the trend into my own

unique creation.

6. If you had to pick one, which would it be: doing make-up for fashion week, photo shoots, movies or theater?Hmm…I think I feel the same as if someone would ask a

parent to pick a favorite child. (Laughing)

Fashion weeks are so dynamic, there is so much preparation

and creative teamwork. Photo shoots in studios are com-

pletely different, they can be very intimate and quiet, but

sometimes you travel to a certain location just to get one

great photo, freezing a moment in time. Movies are probably

the most complex, sometimes taking over a year to com-

plete production. Theater has a certain romantic feel to it and

was one of the first fields where make-up artistry became a

profession.

It is impossible for me to choose one, but I can admit that my

strongest one is creating new looks and working on photo

shoots.

7. What music do you play while you are working?Besides being a make-up artist, music is probably one of the

most important elements of my life. It really depends on a sit-

uation, sometimes there is already music playing and there is

not much to choose from. If I am the one choosing the music

I always adapt it to the mood of the make-up, similar to how

a soundtrack is chosen for a movie. I never get enough of

Shirley Bassey, Chet Baker, David Bowie, Kate Bush, Mas-

sive Attack and Air. 36

8. Do you have any friends or family that helped lead you to become an artist?My grandfather was a painter, but unfortunately, I never got

the chance to meet him so I must have inherited (or stolen)

some of his genes. I also always enjoyed watching my moth-

er do her make-up, so I need to thank her because I was

never really interested in make-up or any other girly thing

at the time. She did my make-up for my prom and nobody

recognized me; I instantly felt the magic of make-up, which

was probably my breakthrough moment.

9. Who inspires you the most in life?It will probably sound cliché, but my life is my inspiration,

along with my friends and the people I work with. You don’t

search for creativity, you simply live it!

10. What makes you really happy?There are a lot of things that bring joy and happiness to

my life, but it comes down to, simply waking up in the

morning knowing that there is a whole new day full of

surprises waiting for me!

11. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?My life, as a make-up artist, is full of constant changes.

Meeting new people on a daily basis, changing work loca-

tions, traveling and diving into new cultures is what I love

and why I chose to do this in the first place. I’m always cre-

ating, teaching and learning, so I hope in 5 years it will be the

same…same, but different. 37

Used for centuries to create definition and to draw attention to the eyes, eyeliner comes in different types and styles. While some applications are used for correction, others are purely for fun and fashion. The possibilities are endless: Precise sharp lines are great for dramatic looks and soft smudges offer a more subtle approach. You can also control the thickness of the line with the amount of pressure you ap-ply and with your choice of brush. (A light touch will allow for a thinner line than you get with a heavy hand.)

For well defined, sharp lines you may choose

to use a cake liner, gel, liquid or even a wet

application of eye shadow. For a softer look,

choose a pencil or a dry eye shadow and

blend. You can also layer more than one prod-

uct to add depth. Once you master our four

basic Eye Liner applications, it’s extremely

easy to customize your own.

1. For a well-defined straight liner, use the Cake Liner in Black or Brown with Brush #100.

2. Wet the brush and twirl it into the cake liner until it comes to a point and you have a

perfect slurry of color. (Too wet and it may look like a wash, too dry and it may skip.)

Test on the back of your hand to ensure you have the right consistency.

3. Do not stretch the eye from the outer edge - it will distort the eyeliner and may cause

added wrinkles later on. If necessary, tug upward from the eyebrow to really get into the

lash line. To gain better control, lightly lay the brush flat against the lashes on the top

lash line with the tip pointing toward the tear duct.

4. Drag the brush to the center of the eye.

5. Flip the brush and lay the brush flat against the lashes with the tip facing the outer

corner and drag the brush toward the center so the lines meet in the middle.

Use the same method of application for liquids, gels, and/or wet powder applications.

For a softer look, use this method with a sharpened Eye Pencil and/or an Eye Color

and Brush #210.

1. Use the same method for a well-defined straight liner for the base of the natural

liner application.

2. Next, lightly place the tip of the brush toward the highest point of the wedge (To

create the lift at the outer edge, use the edge of your lower water line to gauge

where your wedge should be placed.) It is very important not to exceed the

outer edge especially when you are trying to lift the eye.

3. Lay the brush flat with the tip touching the highest point of the wedge and

follow the curve of the eye toward the center. You may have to repeat this step

to build the thickness.

Use the same method for liquids, gels, and wet powder applications. For a softer

edge, dampen Brush #210 and lightly blend out. Or use the same point to point meth-

od with a sharpened Eye Pencil and/or Eye Color and Brush #210.

1. Begin with a straight or natural liner with any of the products mentioned above

and envision a horizontal line that runs through the eye. Place a dot at the outer

corner of the eye just above the horizontal line.

2. Place your choice of tool and product on the dot and follow the lower lash line.

Taper the lower liner as you move toward the tear duct.

3. Next, connect the lower liner with the top liner. Place the tool and product on

the dot and follow the upper lash line. This line should also taper as it nears the

tear duct.

A well-blended and soft application makes for a perfect smoky eye.

1. Create your slurry of color with the Black or Brown Cake Liner and Brush #100.

2. Look straight into the mirror and notice if/where the fold of the crease falls on the

lid. If it does, be sure to keep the wing below the fold.

3. Point the tip of the brush toward the highest point of the wing at a 45 degree

angle and drag the brush down to the outer corner of the lash line to create an

extended incline line. Repeat on the other eye for balance.

4. Next, lay the brush down with the point at the tear duct and drag the brush to

the center of the eye. Then turn the brush in the opposite direction. From the tip

of the wing lightly apply pressure to the brush to create a slight dip as the brush

glides toward the center of the eye.

5. Repeat steps to fill in if necessary. Follow steps on the other eye.

For a softer edge, dampen Brush #210 and lightly blend out or use the same point to

point method with a sharpened Eye Pencil and/or Eye Color and Brush #210. You can

also add powder Eye Color on top to soften the look.

A straight liner is used to define the top lash line and

follows the natural curve of the eye. The straight line

does not have any corrective elements, it’s primarily

used for definition. It is also a great base for most eye

liner positions.

The Fashion Liner creates the illusion of close-set

eyes appearing farther apart. In this corrective posi-

tion, the lower liner meets the upper liner at the outer

corner of the eye to create a lift at the outer edge.

This liner position is used to add an optical lift to-

ward the outer edge and to define the eye. The

natural liner is thinner in the inner corner and as it

follows the curve of the eye, it thickens and ends

with a wedge at the outer corner.

This corrective eyeliner position is ideal for wide-set

eyes. It creates the illusion of the eyes closer togeth-

er, with a lift at the outer edge. Although this eyeliner

position is very popular, it is not recommended for a

person with hooded lids as the fold will most likely dis-

tort the shape of the wing.

After graduating from MUD in 2002, make-up artist Danielle

Lyn Saunders worked on an array of low-budget horror films

and “any job she could get her hands on” where she created

numerous character make-ups. After 18 months of paying her

dues, Danielle joined Local 706 where she did make-up on

game shows before getting her first episodic television show,

Touch, a major accomplishment in her life and career. After

marriage and family beckoned, Danielle returned to TV, de-

partment heading sitcoms including Dads in 2013 and Cristela

in 2014 after which she joined Disney in 2015.

With regards to her first job after graduating from MUD, Only

in Hollywood, Danielle realized that she had to stand out from

the pack. Though a throng of make-up artists were vying for

the position of doing make-up on the show, even though its

total salary was $50, Danielle offered to work on the show for

free. However, the director wasn’t buying that, as other po-

tential artists had already volunteered their labor for free. Con-

cocting a unique strategy, Danielle asked the director “if he

had 30 minutes, so that she could make him look homeless.”

She nailed the make-up and got the job.

Danielle left no stone unturned in building her career, so she

tried every avenue: pouring through the industry trade mag-

azines, checking Craigslist for jobs, answering all ads she

could find. In addition to doing a dose of freebees, Danielle

reached back to MUD to find paid work, no matter the size

of the project initially. Danielle noted that she flew by the seat

of her pants, often devising on-the-spot make-ups for shows

such as Touch. Adding a bruise make-up or bloody gash

would regularly arise, so Danielle kept her make-up kit fully

stocked in anticipation of these spontaneous challenges. Her

most valuable lesson learned was to be ready for anything and

always be adequately prepared when working on set.

Her greatest strength, Danielle notes, is her ability to create

anything asked of her, regardless of her given prep period.

For Untold Stories of The ER, she fabricated such unorth-

odox make-ups as “hooks through a neck, or tree stumps

in head”, which to her delight, always stood up on camera.

She surmounted such challenges through a combination

of her MUD training, her developing skills, and her stead-

fast belief in herself. Moreover, Danielle has proactively

been surrounded by friends who have supported her and

likeminded craftspeople from whom she has continued to

learn. In the future, Danielle looks forward to balancing her

professional life and her family life, which is also precious

to her. Given her ongoing position as the make-up depart-

ment head on many top television projects, Danielle looks

to have a very bright career ahead.

Final Look


Growing upI was always interested in creating art. More specifically Mon-

ster or Creature art, and what started two dimensionally in

sketchbooks and textbooks ultimately developed into three

dimensional sculptures. As a youth, I knew I wanted to make

monsters. As I grew, however, I realized what that really meant

was that I wanted to create characters. My parents, Steve and

Irene, were always very supportive and aided me in obtaining

the various materials and tools I needed to advance in this

arena. Without their support and encouragement, I am posi-

tive I would have followed a very different path.

Entertainment industryKing Kong (1933 version). I remember being awestruck by

Willis O’Brien’s stop motion of Kong. That experience stayed

with me so deeply that when I moved to New York in 1986 to

study film, I enrolled in the animation department.

CareerA high school friend of mine, Mark Pederson, had moved

to Florida and hooked up with an independent filmmaker

named Tim Ritter. Tim was about to start shooting a film en-

titled, “Killing Spree” and I went down to handle the make-up

effects. The entire budget was $1000 and I was tasked with

building seven elaborate death scenes and bringing all the

victims back from the dead.

Big BreakI think moving to L.A. was perhaps the biggest step forward

for my career. I don’t think that this would have happened

when it did if I hadn’t met Gabe Bartalos while still in New

York. Gabe had just finished shooting “Frankenhooker” and

was gearing up to start “Basket Case 2.” I interviewed with

Gabe and started the next day. After the film wrapped, Gabe

offered me a position at his L.A. studio, Atlantic West Effects,

on a film called “Happy Hell Night.” I gladly accepted and

moved to Los Angeles, which I have called home ever since.

Heros and mentorsI am always learning from other artists, but I’m not sure I

would call them “heroes.” “Inspiration” is more appropriate,

I’d say. If there were any make-up artists I would refer to as a

mentor however, I would have to name two. The first would

be Steve Johnson. I worked at Steve’s company XFX for

about eight years when I first moved to L.A. and the things I

learned there would fill a book. Not only did Steve surround

himself with some of the best minds in the make-up effects

business at the time, but he also approached make-up de-

sign from a very original angle. His approach was always

“outside the box”, which led to some amazing visual imag-

Joel HarlowInterview

They say it’s not what you know, but who you know when it comes to “making it” in

the industry. Not only have MUD graduates made a name for themselves, but the

friends of MUD are always artists that believe in setting their own path to success.

Events like Industry Speaks at the New York and Los Angeles campuses give students the

opportunity to speak with lead artists every week. Some of the hottest names in the entertain-

ment and beauty industry have graced the doors of MUD to show them what’s at the end of

the tunnel of opportunity after graduating.

Academy Award and Oscar winning artist, Joel Harlow sat down with MUD to share his hum-

ble beginnings from Grand Forks, North Dakota to on location with Johnny Depp.

ery. I maintain that what we did at XFX was to create “digital

transformations and effects” in the physical world. The sec-

ond mentor would have to be Ve Neill. I was Ve’s key make-

up artist on a number of very high profile films. She taught

me how to run a department and how to be a department

head. I absolutely would not be where I am today without

Ve’s guidance.

InspirationMy inspiration can come from anywhere. I surround myself

with the work of other artists, both two and three dimension-

al, both classic artists and make-up artists. I will also derive

inspiration from music or audio stories. There are inspirations

everywhere, one just needs to be open to them, from the

very obvious imagery in painting or sculpture to the images

in the grain of a piece of wood or the shapes in a coffee stain

on a desk...

Johnny DeppWorking with Johnny is truly a dream come true. In devel-

oping a character, he brings no ego to the process. By that I

mean that he is not concerned at all about seeing “himself”

through the make-up. It’s all about designing the right look

for the character, and he is very involved in the conceptual-

ization process. We have developed a shorthand over the

years which allows us to play around with looks (prosthet-

ic or otherwise) with fantastic results. He understands the

make-up world completely. He is very conscious of the time

it takes to create and apply make-ups, as well as the poten-

tial fragility of a make-up once applied. There is a mutual

respect we share for each other when it comes to creating a

character...that is VERY rare!

Winning the OscarThe most important part of that evening was being able to

share it with my parents. I was able to have them both at the

awards presentation and after that evening, I gave them the

award. It is a tremendous honor to be acknowledged by your

peers for work that you love doing, but ultimately, doing work

that you love is its own reward.

If your house was on fire and you could only save one scene from all your movies what would it be?I think one of my favorite make-ups that I’ve created has

been “Bootstrap Bill” from Pirates 2 and 3, however, the

“Hell on Wheels” sequence from “The Lone Ranger” is load-

ed with special character make-ups and regardless of any

critics opinion (armchair or otherwise) it is at the top of my

favorite films list...I think that’d have to be it.

Best advice“Nothing lasts forever. Neither the ups, nor the downs. Enjoy

the high points and treat everyone with respect, for one day

you will be the one taking direction instead of giving it.”

Code you live byAlways create! Whether it is for a film or for yourself, always

do what you love to do. Your personal projects are just as

important to your growth as an artist as your professional

projects. Perhaps more so, because this is where you get

to express your vision without input from others. If you find

yourself losing the passion to create for art’s sake, then it's

time to rethink what you are bringing to this industry.

“NOTHING LASTS FOR-EVER. NEITHER THE UPS, NOR THE DOWNS. ENJOY THE HIGH POINTS AND TREAT EVERYONE WITH RESPECT, FOR ONE DAY YOU WILL BE THE ONE

TAKING DIRECTION IN-STEAD OF GIVING IT.”

Highlight

& Shadow 101

The art of highlighting and shading are techniques used

in a make-up application to accentuate features and add

depth. Used alone or together, they can help a face appear

thinner, add lift to the eye area, create high cheekbones,

and a defined the jawline, which will help the face look well

balanced and youthful.

Choosing a highlight or shadow product will create the most

dramatic effect, however lighter and darker shades of foun-

dation can be used for a much more subtle effect. By sim-

ply applying one shade darker foundation just beneath the

cheekbones and blending it down to the jawline, you will cre-

ate a slimming of the face. Using a highlight under the eyes

or at the very corners of the mouth can brighten those areas

and create a youthful appearance.

If you use a cream foundation, use a cream highlight or shad-

ow for maximum blend-ability. Set the cream products with

a loose or pressed powder, then add a powder highlight and

shadow to further enhance the cream.

The most common mistake we see is when someone copies

what someone else does. What works on your face will not

work on your friend’s face. Every application is different de-

pending on the correction needed and how the make-up is

viewed. You have a lot of product options when it comes to

highlighting and shading your face, you can choose cream

products, liquid products and a variety of powder products

from bronzers and cheek colors to eye shadows. The appli-

cation is determined by the effect you’re trying to achieve

and which product will work best. As an example, if you have

dry skin stay clear of powder products because they will en-

hance the texture of the skin.

Quick Tips: When highlighting with a Cream or a HD Liquid Make-up,

use Brush #330 or a sponge. A smaller brush (#300 or #930)

can be used for a more precise application. When using a

powder such as the Lemon Cream, DFL1 or DFL2, use Brush

#340 or a sponge.

When shading with a Cream or a HD Liquid Make-up, use

Brush #350 in smaller areas and Brush #340 or sponge for

larger surface areas. When using a pressed powder, such as

DFD1 or DFD2, use Brush #350 on smaller areas and Brush

#510 or a sponge on larger areas.

Have you ever wondered why your make-up looks different than the images you see in magazines, on TV or in movies, and wondered why models and celebrities look so amaz-ing? The secret is that make-up artists use highlights and shadows to completely trans-form a face and now you can incorporate highlights and shadows into your own make-up regimen. The beauty of using highlights and shadows is that you can utilize a little or a lot depending on if you are using these tips for everyday use or for a special occasion.

REMEMBER THAT HIGHLIGHTS BRING AREAS OF THE FACE

FORWARD, WHILE SHADOWS PUSH

THEM BACK

1. For this model we wanted to diminish the size of her forehead and help balance her face. Using a shading color at

least a shade or two darker than the foundation. We applied shading near the hairline and just above her temple to give the forehead dimension.

4. To create a defined jawline, apply the shading just below the edge of the jawbone and blend down towards the neck.

2. To add dimension to the bridge of her nose and to correct the slight bend at the end of her nose we shaded

from the eye socket down the sides of the nose. We also shaded the slight fold above her eyelid to create a beautiful crease. Do not go below the outer corners of the eyes.

5. Adding highlight brings an area forward and is at least a shade or two lighter than the foundation. We applied

highlight to the center of the forehead to help add dimension and we applied it to the center of her nose to help strengthen her bridge and to help correct the bend at the end of her nose.

3. To strengthen the cheekbone apply shading right below the cheekbone at a declined angle that follows the

highlight. This shadow should be deepest in the hollow of the cheek. There should be a “blending” space in between your highlight and shadow on the cheekbone.

6. To bring out the brow bone and help define the eyebrow, we added a highlight just below the brow and you will

also notice that this highlight helps to lift the outer corner of the eye. To correct the natural appearing shadow under her eye we added highlight just to the shaded area to pull it forward. 64

7. To finish creating a strong cheekbone we applied highlight to the top part of the cheekbone in a decline from

the hairline to the apples of the cheeks. We also applied highlight to the outer corners of the mouth, below the lower lip, the top edge of the upper lip and the center of the chin for a bit of correction.

8. Finally, apply the highlight in the darkest part of any wrinkle to counteract the negative shadow, in this

case we wanted to diminish her nasal labial folds.

9. Finish the look by blending the highlights and shadows with a sponge or a foundation brush to soften the edges and to create

a gradient of color from light to dark. The highlights and shadows should be soft and subtle to the naked eye for day wear and more exaggerated for evening looks.

The team were honoured to have a whole week of insights

and teachings from Paul Thompson leading up to the launch

evening. Troy Watson provided us with visions and practices

from around the world. We will most certainly keep the values

of the MUD brand in high esteem in our market place and

have already seen an exceptionally positive response in the

last few months of trading.

is located just outside of the Kruger National Park. Home to the BIG Five - Lion,

Elephant, Buffalo, Leopard, and White/Black Rhinoceros. We decided to show-

case our beautiful surroundings and diverse faces for the rest of our international

partners to view. A little walk on the wild side of "Die Bosveld" There are not many

places in the world where you can so closely observe a pride of Lions, Giraffe or

Rhinoceros. The simplicity of the photos are intended to emphasize this special

place we are trying to preserve.
