This was my entry for the 2010 Amazon.com Kindle commercial contest. Unfortunately, it didn’t place.

Special thanks to my husband, Ryan, who did the camera work, to MKay for her Kindle loan and especially to my mother whose concept this was.

You NEED this!

After much toiling, my good friend Michael has completed his monster make-up masterpiece! It’s around 300 pages and contains over 700 step-by-step pictures. This project is truly a monster in and of itself.

I was fortunate enough to have modeled four different hideous makeups for this book, and had a great time doing it.

I’ve gotten to see some early drafts of it, and it really is a fantastic piece. It covers everything from techniques that can be done by beginners to more advanced make-up techniques like sculpting and applying foam latex appliances.

I’m really not shilling a product here. This project has been so much fun and so fascinating that I kept coming back for more, and I’m eager to try some of these techniques for myself.

Right now the book is available for pre-order. Take a look at the link below and maybe think about kicking your Halloween costume up a notch!
