Period productions on stage, television and film are increasingly popular - authentic make-up is key.

Clearly illustrated for white, Hispanic, Chinese, black and Asian skins, instructions are given on how to create each look: from Ancient Egyptian, to the changing styles of the Restoration era and Victorian haute couture, to the flapper-style of the 1920s and punk-rockers of the late 1970s. Each section includes make-up ideas and detailed illustrations of certain areas of the face. The opening section of the book provides a complete listing of supplies needed and tips on corrective make-up, scar and special effects tips.
