What this video covers

Madeyewlook creator Alexys Fleming delivers a striking evil skull and anatomical heart body-paint makeup look in this short tutorial. The design blends classic skull makeup with gore-style detailing using a combination of professional-grade water-activated and alcohol-activated paints. Multiple product lines are used to build depth through layered shadows, vivid reds, and stark whites and blacks. Despite the brief runtime, the look achieves an impressively dramatic horror aesthetic.
