Marilyn Manson Makeup Tips

It was so great reconnecting with Marilyn Manson on Chris Hardwick's show "The Talking Dead" on AMC! I did Manson's video "Tainted Love" with the cast of Not Another Teen Movie a few years ago and we laughed over the antics that happened during those two days we spent together. He reminded me that I was one of only 3 makeup artists that he'd ever let do his makeup. He usually does it himself!


I achieved the white base with the with the color palette from Make Up For Ever. I also used a black eyeliner from Make Up For Ever smudged with my fingertips. The lip stain was YSL Violet Edition. I finished off the look with matte white powder by Make Up For Ever. Then I sprayed hair in place with  Phytolaque Soie. The pictures were actually taken by Marilyn Manson's suggestion and hand. We compared tattoos, had a good laugh and then he went on the show. You can check the episode out on Talkingdead.com. -Sean James
