Makeup Artist Magazine: Hello, Halloween Inspo!
Who’s excited for Halloween?! If you’re still brainstorming costume ideas, we wanted to inspire you a little. Kerry Herta recently did an awesome make-up for an American Horror Story: Apocalypse promo campaign. Here, she shares her tricks behind the look. Check out the make-up breakdown below.
Kerry Herta: “For this Season Eight of American Horror Story promo campaign image, I used a variety of tools and products. The initial phase of this make-up was to do a complete bald cap on our model. We used a Davy Cap for this one. After applying the bald cap, we painted it in flesh tones for an even palette. Skin prep is always a priority, especially with these tight character images.
