Drag Makeup

For my Character Makeup Assessment for University I accomplished a drag makeup look. I used different shades of powders, foundations, and concealers to create a classic drag base on the face. The overall look is inspired by some of my favourite Drag Queens such as RuPaul, Raven, Manila Luzon, and Vivienne Pinay. These queens often use neutral colours on all of the eyes, face, and lips but still conveying a sense of exxageration which is what drag is. This meant that my male model was feminised on all features on the face, but mainly on the eyes and the face.

I finished the look of with a curly blonde wig from abhair.com, a leopard print dress and a sleek black belt.
