Red, Gold and Black
Posted on 11. Jun, 2010 by GlitterGirl in Gold, Kryolan, Red
Matching 
the awesome gold, red and black costume I made for the Flowshow, here’s another face painting style created for a Friday night hoop party and fire dancing performance gig.
The pattern is symmetric. While the color is called “copper” by Kryolan, on my skin, this color looks much more like gold on my skin. This pattern took approximately 30-35 minutes.
Tools Needed:
- 2 small (approximately 2.5mm) square brushes (3206)
- 2 ultra thin detail brushes (size 3500)
- water
- baby wipes
- paper towels
Colors Needed:
Technique:
- Apply the red to the lower lid
- Add the red to the curve below the eyes, making round loops on the end
- Add the copper to the upper part of the lid
- Extend the copper on the outside of the eyes, making both swirls
- Apply additional copper over the red on the cheeks
- Create the red dots above the eyebrows
- Add the copper to the red dots over the eyes
- Line the eyes with black
- Line the red swirls with black
- Add the black highlights on the dots above the eyes
- Add dots around the copper swirls around the eyes
- Add more black dots over the copper on the cheeks
