This a makeup look I did a few years back. It’s really simple to recreate.
I used an airbrush, but the same technique can be achieve with eyeshadow.
To get the print effect;
Take a pair of fishnet tights, and stretch across the models face (you made need a hand, so ask your model to hold the tights in place) be sure that whichever way you position the diamond shapes, that you match them up as you work your way across the face / body. Otherwise it won’t be consistent.
I sprayed two colours as you can see, and I used tape down the nose, to give me a perfect line.
You use a sponge dipped in eyeshadow or body paint, and dab over the tights continually until you’re happy with the opacity of the colour. Then carefully pull the tights away and remove any defining tape.
For the lips, you can mix the same eyeshadow colour with lipgloss like I did here.
Have fun!
