What contour and ageing looks can you create with Character Shadow?
Character Shadow is a muted, brownish-grey tone that adds convincing depth to any look. Use it for sunken cheeks on a zombie or vampire, aged and weathered skin, or as shading around SFX wounds and scars.
For theatre and film work it's equally handy: a single pot gives you a reliable shadow tone for cheekbones, eye sockets and temples without needing to blend several browns together.
When do you choose Character Shadow over a standard contour palette?
The talc base delivers strong, matte coverage that builds quickly. Choose this pot when you need one dependable shadow colour that covers in a single pass, without reaching for a full palette every time.
It's a smart addition if you regularly work on ageing looks, creature makeups or SFX and want this shade ready to grab alongside your other colours.
How to use it
Activate with a lightly damp brush or sponge. The talc formula absorbs water slightly more slowly than glycerin-based face paints, so use a touch more water for a smooth application. It dries within a few seconds.
Pro tip: For a convincing ageing look, start with a thin layer of Character Shadow in the eye sockets and nasolabial folds. Blend the edges with a dry fingertip, then seal with Ben Nye Final Seal for hours of wear.
Setting and removing
Character Shadow holds for several hours without a fixative. For extra staying power in hot conditions or long events, finish with Ben Nye Final Seal. Activate with Mehron Mixing Liquid instead of water for greater sweat resistance.
Remove easily with soap and water, or use a makeup remover for heavier applications.
What can you use it for?
- Contouring cheeks, eye sockets and temples
- Ageing makeup: wrinkles, sunken cheeks, character faces
- SFX shading around wounds, scars and injury effects
- Creature and monster looks: zombie, vampire, undead
- Theatre and film: character makeup and facial sculpting
