Hey Roxanne! I just got my Ben Nye in (just in time for Mechacon and CATS in Tennessee!) And I noticed, you put on the baby powder and some water after different 'coats'. Should I do this too for my Bomba and Deme? Add powder after the first base and etc? Lovely makeup too! Hopefully my attempts in makeup can become as good!
@Scarlettequeen13579 This is one of those "it's different for everyone" things, I think. I used to set between both layers of oil-based paints, but if I were doing that today, I'd just set once, at the very end. Or, do the base, set, and then do all of the details with water-based paint. I think the best thing would be to practice painting and powdering yourself, and see what works best for you!
@JasonCollago309 I don't see why not, but it will take some practice to get them to cooporate. Halloween makeup is hit and miss as far as quality - usually miss.
This is great! After remembering about my all time videoed anything, Cats this week I became obsessed with it XD (again for the 15ish time lolzz) I want to be Demeter for Halloween this year so this helps Immensely :) how much does Ben Nye Creme color cost usually? It looks fun to use
@Nyrahd, Ben Nye Creme color is quite fun to use, it's got a really smooth, creamy consistancy. I get mine from Alconeco . com, but I know others who use stagesupply . com with success. You're looking at about $4.50 per .25oz pot (lasts quite a while!) at stagesupply, $5 at alcone, and no idea right now how the shipping differs.
If you're interested in costume how-tos, I totally recommend theccdb.com (the cats costuming discussion board). It's a pretty active forum setting with helpful folks.
I think theyre way to hard on killing sound tracks for make up vids, okey that you dont own the score but its should be seen as a part off a performance or something.
Lovely work, Roxeanne, it always looks so pro on theese vids (as compared to my skils anyway^^) Johan/Profetikus.
Great job. You and other people I see doing these vids make it look so easy. I wish I was better at make up so I could do that for my white tiger costume.
Fabulous work! You are a gifted makeup artist. That you can still look so pretty and feminine while embodying your character is a tribute to your work. My boyfriend and I would love to see more of these characters; please give us more and thank you for sharing them with us!
when you purchase a cd you own the copyright, fair use say's you can then use it for whatever you want and give it away free, to infiniti. wmg is violating this persons freedom of speech by saying she cannot use it. This greed only prevents another person from experiencing the music and possibly even purchasing it. so everybody looses, because wmg thinks they have the right to enforce somthing that is not law as being enforced by a non government entity.
I think you are a little confused...I worked for an intellectual property attorney..copy right is not given to you just because you buy a cd..if I buy a Disney dvd that has mickey mouse on it I do not own the copy rights to him (ie I can't give other people permission to use his image). Freedom of speech has nothing to do with blocking music on you tube...it has to do with the right to speak out against the government...
PS I Do agree that wmg is a pain in the neck as I have had vids taken down cause of them but sadly, they are the copy right owners which means they get to decide how and where and why a song may or may be reproduced.
read the fair use act. when you purchase a piece of music it's yours to redistribute as long as you don't charge. you sound like a corporate shill when you say what you said. wmg has no rights over how you use your individual copy.
I am very familiar with the fair use act. When you purchase a cd you may use for personal use such as your home cd player or your car. No where does it say you may broad cast it over the internet. I was just correcting you because your information was wrong and you were trying to present it as fact. Audio blocking on here...is because of WMG copy rights or rights to reproduce a song, movie, character etc. Just because you buy a cd does not give you the right to distribute the music.
What are you using for the black detail and the white highlight? I am doing all of the makeup for CATS at a high school in a few weeks, and I am planning to order the makeup from Ben Nye tomorrow. Hopefully, with the help of your video, my work will turn out ok!
are you using greasepaint? because that has to be set with powder.
makeup advice please. can i substitute whatever you're using with face paint? im planning to dress up as a cat(Jemima) for this gig i have and i want to spend as little as possible
Hey, nice work on the face painting, you look awesome!. I kinda need some help. I'm in a show in a month and i need to paint my face like a lion, do you have any advice on colours/ base colours/ design ideas and detailing for a lion? Well done again, Thanks Charlie x
Remember the next time you do this to wear a button up shirt so you can easily take it off, and not mess up make up if you want to use this for something.
In this video, I used Ben Nye creme color liners for the base and Snazaroo cake makeup for the details. The Ben Nye is oil-based, so water doesn't break it down - you need something with oil in it to effectively remove it. The water based paint, naturally, comes off easily with water unless you do something to set it.
This is so great! If I ever am in Cats, one of the characters I would be pleased in playing would be Demeter, so this was very interesting! I laughed out loud when different sound effects appeared on the screen while playing the Batman theme! Ha!
I've seen your work on the CATS fourms and it's really wonderful. This was fun to watch but one tiny tiny suggestion. When you add the words don't add them directly over your face, put them at the bottom like some of the others. Other than that this was great.
I use Windows Movie Maker too and I find that by setting the font size to the smallest one and using 'Subtitle' (found in the one-line options for titles/credits) usually helps. :)
Personally the writing doesn't annoy me. It made me smile and made the eight minutes go faster. But I understand how it might peeve some people =^.^=
It's a theatrical makeup by Ben Nye (creme color liners). Oil-based, so it takes oil to remove (not just soap and water), but they have a wonderful consistancy and with a bit of practice are very workable. =)
I'm sure I would have loved to. =) I've had the chance before to help out with a theatre group putting on CATS, and it was one of the most wonderful opportunities.
There's a local shop that carries a few good makeup brands, but when I need something they don't carry, I go to Snazaroo dot com or alconeco dot com =)
Great job, mate! If only someone in my neighbourhood was as talented as you in makeup, maybe my school could organize a CATS musical some day... Pity it'll never happen, though..
The powdered bit is all Ben Nye creme color liners (white, goldenrod, and coral I think), and everything else is Kryolan Aquacolors (the dark red, however, is snazaroo)
