Fever, Sweat & Tears

   This weeks practical session we was taught how to create a fever, sweat and tears using our super colour by Kryolan and glycerin. Whilst working on my partner and looking at my final product I found that when I was applying the redness around the face I was being semi heavy handed, which made the paint show up so much more intense and harsh against the skin. In the future I would make sure I didn't have a lot of product on my sponge, but to also go in with a cotton pad dipped in make up remover to help soften the redness and blend nicely into the skin.

Fever & Fever Eyes Method:

  1.  start off by mixing the reds in this palette with some moisturiser to dilute the colour the applied it to the face with a black textured sponge and be very light handed/don't load up the colour onto sponge
  2. stipple around the face where you'd get redness e.g. around the cheeks, forehead, nose, neck etc
  3. to add more texture get a paint brush and flick colour onto models face
  4. make sure edges aren't harsh and are almost translucent
  5.  to create fever eyes use red shades from your super colour palette and apply on corners of the eyes and under eye

Sweat & Tears Method:
  1. using a black textured sponge dipped in glycerin apply a small amount to the forehead, top of the lip, back of the neck etc
  2. for tears apply using cotton bud but do NOT get inside the eye
