Hi guys :D

Well late to the party...but at least I made it!
Super busy life stuff & work totally kept me out of my studio.
But for Halloween weekend I was able to film all (3) makeup/costumes.

First up:
"Living Frida Kahlo / Sugar Skull Portrait "~ Costume & Makeup Tutorial
This is my interpretation of Frida Kahlo's 1940 portrait. The twist on the look is a nod to Dios de los Muertas (Day of the Dead) with a black & white sugar skull.

Before the tutorial there is a little run down on how I put the costume together.

Hope you enjoy it! Let me know what ya think.
Love ya!
