So this last weekend I went to Cirque Du Soleil's "Saltimbanco." It was soo incredibly breathtaking! I loved everything about it: the talented acrobatics, the strength, the agility and balance, but most of all...I loved the costumes and makeup!
Saltimbanco, is a comment on society and represents the hope that we all hold in our hearts for a better world. Initially the characters in the show are rainbow reptilian creatures that eventually transform into giddy socialites. My favorite act was the Chinese poles. Phenomenal!
After the show I decided to search youtube for individuals who were as creative with their makeup as the cirque performers. This who I found.
Emma has truly used her face as a canvas, and her cosmetics as paint. I was enamored by the designs she has created - and now really want to try this!
