A Year’s Worth Of Makeup Applied In One Day Is A Dripping Mess

Ladies – and men! – if you want to be truly frightened by what 365 day’s worth of makeup would look like if applied all in one day, look no further. Dutch artists Lenert Engelberts and Sander Plug painted model Hannelore Knuts’ face “to see how much is needed to go from a natural look to an outrageous one”.

The process took nine long, straight hours, where seven bottles of foundation, two bottles of “Creamy Eyes”, three “Milky Lips” pens and two bottles of blush were used up, totalling 228.4mL of makeup. A horrible waste, yes, but doesn’t she look pretty? [Nowness via Nerdcore via io9]
