Superman Pop Art Tutorial by Make-up Artist Jade Hughes

I love Instagram to find new upcoming make-up artists. And once again I found another gem- @jadeyhughes who tagged us in ‘Crownyou’ and our #MakeupMonday competition and instantly I fell in love with Jade’s work especially after she created an amazing illusion of E.T on herself which received some crazy likes on Crownbrushuk Instagram.

Jade's Entry for Make-up Monday!... E.T

Some of Jade’s Work:

Jade is currently new to make-up artistry experimenting a lot on herself with 3D face painting looks. I am looking forward to seeing jade’s work grow over time.

For our blog takeover I asked Jade to create an exclusive look for the Crownbrush blog this week to inspire you all and encourage you to experiment with something different. I am loving that all artists are playing with Pop Art at the moment and was very excited when Jade sent me her tutorial of turning herself into a Pop Art Superman for all our Crownbrush fans. Hope you enjoy this tutorial as much as I did. 

  

Superman Pop Art Tutorial by Jade:

Jade's Step by Step Guide: 

1. Start by applying foundation all over face and neck to get a flawless base. Making sure to conceal any dark circles, redness and imperfections very well.

2. With an eyeliner pencil, draw the outline of the superman logo on your chest and where his suit and cape meets.

3. Fill in the design with the correct colours of face paint as shown.

4. Go over the outline you made with black face paint.

5. Slick hair back and paint over it with black face paint. Proceed to drawing hair curls onto the forehead and fill in with black face paint.

6. Add some blue lines/flicks into the curls to make the hair appear likes its been drawn (cartoon effect)

7. Outline the jaw line, half of the nose, the nostrils and draw two lines going down the neck. Also, draw a line coming from one nostril down to where your lips meet.

8. Outline your ear.

9. Draw on some chunky eyebrows in the shape I have (if you want you can add expression lines)

10. Draw a line going down the cheekbone

11. Outline the edge of your bottom lip and a curved line below it to emphasise the chin.

12. Draw a line where your lips meet (extend outside of lip slightly) and add some slightly curved lines at each end.

13. Now you're superman!

Duo Fibre Brushes For The Face- GIVEAWAY

Duo Fibre brushes have been designed to create a buildable colour and add texture for a lightweight application and blending of face powder or pigments creating flawless, airbrushed make-up looks with cream, liquid or powder products.  All Duo Fibre brushes are made from a soft blend of goat and synthetic fibres. I call these type of brushes in my brush kit ‘A Magic Wand’ because there are just so many ways to use them!

 Yet, too many people don’t know how to use them or they create a streaky make-up application. And this is because they are not aware how to use them. 

 Duo Fibres are amazing for liquid foundation, powder, blush and bronzer application.So hopefully today’s blog post will help you know how to use your Crownbrush duo fibres correctly.

Face Powder- C406 £9.29

 Perfect for loose or mineral powders giving more of a natural and less mask-like look when setting foundation, as the synthetic bristles picks up less powder than a denser brush does.

Liquid Foundation- C404 £7.69

The C404 Duo fibre is perfect for reaching the crevices of the face like the sides of your nose, ears, forehead, around the mouth and under the eyes. It basically applies liquid foundation in a precise application with less streaking when stippling. But being small also attributes to more time taken to apply a whole face. Otherwise, if you have time to spare, be prepared for a lovely airbrushed complexion.

Bronzer- C442 £10.49

Bronzer is used to bring colour back to a face washed out with foundation. You want to apply enough without looking too dark. So you have a natural bronzed look. The C442 is perfect for applying bronzer because the end of the bristles are very light so you have a lot more control with the brush over how much bronzer to apply. 

Blush- C436 £7.49

The larger C404 brush can also be used to apply blush too, but this is my own preference I love to use the C436 to apply liquid/cream blusher stippled into the cheeks then softly blended out with the C404.  The c404 size allows me to apply it exactly where I want it and not have blush applied on too large an area. Using Duo fibre brushes also allow you to create a buildable intensity to your blush. If you like to use Powder blush too I suggest using the C427 Tapered Duo Fibre Blush Brush

Another use … Highlighting!

Using the C404 I always highlight the top of my cheeks and middle of the nose, by swirling the C404 brush in the highlighting powder and it picks up just the tiniest amount of powder, giving that natural glow to the skin instantly. This works with cream and powder highlighters too.
