Sssamantaa posted a photo of a make-up job she did over at Reddit.
“First off, yes, the iris is absolutely photoshopped! In some cases, when I’m doing makeups that are more on the fantasy/art side as opposed to beauty, I will have two versions. One version is just plain – no editing, aside from light balance if necessary, and one I edit to my artistic desire. Sometimes I’ll post the edited version elsewhere (tumblr, Facebook, etc.), most times I do nothing with it. In this case, I took the photo in low lighting with no flash, and I felt I lost a lot of the detail in the iris,” Sssamanthaa wrote over at Reddit.
So unfortunately, this image isn’t completely handmade, but at least she admitted it.
“For the inside of the eye, I used white eyeliner with various shades of grey to shade. For the lashes, I sketched out the shadows with a brown eyebrow pencil and then used liquid liner to create the lashes. The shadowing for the crease/wrinkles is all eyeshadow!”
