Haresfoot & Rouge Death Makeup Demo

Death stage makeup (using modern makeup products) inspired by the “Death” makeup facechart in How to Make-Up; A Practical Guide for Amateurs & C. by Haresfoot & Rouge (1877). Find free full color scans of the whole book here!

Products used:
- Graftobian white creme foundation (any white creme-based facepaint works just fine)
- Graftobian pro setting powder (any setting powder works just fine)
- Graftobian black velvet eyeliner (any black eyeliner or black creme facepaint works just fine)
- Morphe 12p eyeshadow palette (Creme based makeup would be ideal. Graftobian, Ben Nye, and Nyx all sell great creme based products, but here’s a creme face and body paint palette that has a little bit of every essential color and won’t break the bank!)
- Brushes from AllumeMakeup and local craft store
