What I used: 

• Kryolan supercolour; black, red 1 and red 2 
• Makeup brushes and sponges 
• Red lip liner - Rimmel 
• Deep Red pencil - Rimmel
• L'oreal rose ivory foundation 
• Translucent powder Illamasqua

I have taken the makeup from the film, Mad Max Fury Road, and made my own design using professional makeup and techniques. I used makeup sponges to smear the Kryolan colours, this created a dirty and worn off appearance to the makeup. I first used different tones of red to show the colour of war, this made me appear tired and battle ready. I then added black, taken from the makeup style of the main female character who wipes coal over her forehead and eyes in preparation for war. 

I also used the makeup ideas from the war boys, they have very pale skin and black smears around their eyes that ends at a point., shown in now of the images above. For effect I added black on my bottom lip and accentuated my lip creases in my top lip, this was to make my mouth appear cracked and dry, again taken from the makeup of the war boys. To improve this design, I could have used more product around my lips to make them appear more dry and cracked, and I could use a stipple sponge to apply glycerine on my forehead and nose, this is to create sweat.
