How to create old aged skin - Fraulein Schneider


To create the illusion of old age skin featured in my historical character design I have used Ben Nye Old Age Character Kit. To create the contouring of old age use the wk-8 old character palette. 


Use the lightest colour and the brown on the left hand side of the palette. The lightest colour to highlight and the brown to define. 

Start by creating your base using foundation, concealer and powder. 
Next use the brown from Ben Nye WK-8 old character palette to contour the following areas: 
- Hairline
- Temples
- Forehead
- Frown Line
- Side of eyes where wrinkles are formed
- Under eye 
- Bridge of nose
- Hollows of cheek
- Laughter Lines
- Centre of chin

Once the brown lines are in place, apply the lightest colour to highlight around the brown. Draw a line beside the line of brown created.
Once all is highlighted blend the lines together. I found that using a finger worked better then using a brush. 
Set with powder.
