Modern makeup!
Modern theatrical makeup has come along way
from the dubious chemicals and rough techniques
of its early usage. A true art form, modern
dramatic makeup looks range from makeup that is
realistic looking, albeit much heavier than standard
cosmetic application, to highly unusual
characterization, animal, period, Special Effects,
and avant grade makeup looks. The ingredients in
today's stage cosmetics are also safe for the skin
rather than containing the toxic or questionable
compounds.
