Practising with Theatrical Old Age Makeup

I found this YouTube video about how to create a theatrical old age makeup look and I loved her techniques so I tried to recreate the look on myself.


I am happy with how it came out, however I can see I need more practice to make it look exactly how I want it. I think I need to darken some parts of the wrinkles and shadows to make them more intense and so that they show up better on camera. I don't like how it looks like I have contoured to the end of the nose, the colour around the tip was supposed to be red, but unfortunately it came out as an extension of the contour. I think the bags under the eyes need to be a lot more intense and they I need to work to make them look more realistic with improved shading. I really like the contouring in-between the eyebrows and I am really pleased with how the sides of the nose came out.
