Makeup Department Head ... more fave products

I am the Makeup Department head of the upcoming film "What Maisie Knew" I am super excited! Its a great cast and great script.

So I thought I'd post some can't live without items to have on set of a feature film.

DERMACOLOR PALETTE

Seriously, it's brilliant and should be in everyone's kit. for covering tattoo's, bruises, cuts, super dark circles. So many uses.


BEAUTY BLENDER

Don't have one? GET ONE! It will change your life!! Its the quickest, most flawless application tool I have ever used. I use mine wet, so it's nice and soft apply some foundation or concealer with a brush and blend it out with the beauty blender.


CINEMA SECRETS BRUSH CLEANER I find this to be the best when working quickly ...it dry's the fastest, people love the scent, it gets off everything including the thickest glosses to alcohol based products. Parian Spirit would be a close second I like that scent much better but it tends to be a bit oily and can take some time to dry.
KIM GREENE SET BAGS I have a few of these they are awesome when only dealing with a few actors. the outside pockets are great for carrying the small stuff like lips and lipliners and the larger outside pocket I keep brushes. In the big compartment i keep things like tissues, a fan, blot film, wisps, sponges, lotion and other larger makeup items.
This image is the smaller bag, I have the large. but just wanted to show how it can be packed. NC2 SET BAG and BACKPACK I have both the set bag and back pack. Ideal for day playing... they hold everything I would need on a day play gig and keep me organized. I just unzip the backpack and work out of it ...it's like a portable makeup station. this is the set bag
