Make-up For Trailer

Whilst planning the filming for my film trailer, the makeup used on the characters is very Important as it represents the characters in a certain way.
The main character which make up was essential to apply to, was the character of Spencer, who get beaten up and tortured in the attic. 

I decided to use dark colours on the eyes to make Spencer eye look swollen and bruised. In order to get this kind of effect I used the colours, black and brown from the palettes shown below. Closer to the eye I used black to make the bruise look realistic, and then around the around, I faded the colours, to purples and browns, as seen in the screenshot below.
 
To create the effects on a bloody mouth, I used a bright red lipstick, and petroleum jelly to get a moist texture, make the the makeup look like real blood. This was a advantage, because the audience will become aware that Spencer is hurt, and the proof of the will be presented through the bruises and bloody mouth. 
In order to mix the jelly and lipstick , I placed the lipstick onto the outside of my hand and then mixed the petroleum jelly on top, creating a textured paint type effect.
