If you’ve ever looked at a costume and thought you didn’t have the space, patience, or funds to create an awesome silicone mask, then pay attention. You can achieve some looks by applying makeup. Elsa Rhae has been experimenting with costume makeup for less than year. It started when she took an elective course on stage makeup, and she just keeps practicing. Besides becoming a terrifying White Walker, she’s turned herself into Captain Planet, V, Master Chief, Cortana, and many more characters. She’s incredibly skilled.
Watch her become a White Walker:
She created the look with Snazaroo face paint in white and black, and Cate Mcbabb Cosmetics eye shadow, concealer, setting powder, and brushes.
