Untitled

 

Hey Fxers an welcome back to my blog.  I had this amazing look inside of my head of what I wanted to do for you guys today. I got back to my dorm room sat down and realized I was missing a key element for what I wanted to cerate this is how Free For All Friday was born!! What is it you may ask. Well Free For All Friday is when you sit down with a bunch of special effect products in front of a mirror and you just create no reference's no online tutorials to base your ideas off. Just you in front of the mirror creating something out of nothing. It was actually all in all pretty fun I am going to give you a list of the products I used then do the big reveal and you can comment what you think it most reminds you of. There is no how to with this post because Free For All Friday is just that create anything that your heart desires use more products use less products use products that aren't even on the list . Its up to you let your creative juices flow. I am kind of just sting in my dorm room with the competed look hoping no one knocks on my door because that'd be awkward if I have to  answer.  Until next time Fxers.

Super easy special effect bruises !

         How to Make Special Effect Bruises



 Hey Fxers as you can see in the photo off to the side I kind of got into a fight.  I didn't exactly  win. I'm just kidding today I'm going to show you how to make special effect bruises!
it is literally the most simple beginning special effect look you can achieve. You can do this in a variety of different ways . 9 out of 10 times I use eye shadow to create bruising for my looks, But today in the photo your see to your left I used something called an injury stack.

I'm going to explain how you could achieve the same look with both. First ill talk about how to do this look with the injury stack. An injury stack is a stack of  5 different colored cream based paints used  to create a variety of different "Injury's" you would see in the special effects world. The stack  includes two different types of reds, a deep purple, a black , and a tan color. Basically you start with a base color I used the darker red. I blended that out into my skin, and then stuck the deep purple color on top of it. And repeated the process. I then started to blend in tiny amounts of the other colors. Meaning the black , tan , and lighter red. Blending in these 3 colors small amounts at a time gives the bruise you are creating it's texture. you can add in as much as you want to you get the desired affect!

To create this look using eye shadow its the same process. You need a  red, blue , green, purple, and black  color. You start with a base. Again I use red but you don't have to. Once again you blend out your base color and then add your second color on top of your base and blend it out also. You then take your remaining colors and blend them in small amounts into your two main colors until you get your desired effect ! I have a very awkward video below of myself explaining  how to make these buries . So if you want to suffer through that you are welcome to.
