we had our emcee with a really really white face base, bright red lipstick and lots of mascara and black eyeliner. that'd probably work well with you. |

What crazychica said sounds right and sounds like the standard. The Emcee is s'posed to be very ambiguous so yes white face, red lipstick, obvious mascara and eyeliner. It won't look like stage makeup. It will look like a man on drugs whose hands are too shaky to put his eyeliner on straight. and that will be the effect you want.
I haven't read your other post yet so sorry if it explains this question, but how dark are you making the show? Is it a high school show or non prof or prof theater? If you're leaning towards the Cummings/Richardson version, cover yourself with bruises, track marks, and scars. |

this is how I did my make up, they wanted the face to be white no lipstick and not so much with eyes. they only wanted the girls and the emcee to have really dark eyes.

Well my advice, as a theatrical make up artist, is to have a very pale face using a powder instead of a specific make up, but dust it properly down your neck so it doesnt have an obvious line under your chin, try and avoid your lips and dont do it TOO thick.
For your eyes I'd say use a very dark blue or a taupe eyeshadow along the top of your eyeball so it highlights the socket, and blend that into a slightly lighter colour the further towards the nose, along the eyeball, use thick black eyeliner and if possible use some thick black fake eyelashes and put a little mascara over them. That will work. |

Make-up in the pictrues looks good- but why do the Kit Kat Boys have so many damn clothes on! Too much costume!! |
