Be Calm. There is no test, no quiz, and you can skip these videos if you don’t have time for them. These are all just fun art projects related to faces/makeup. I find the more I learn factually about faces the better I can see them, work with them, and achieve our ideal of enlightenment. So, I share these with you so you may do the same…. if you have the time, watch and enjoy. If you do not, chill, and remember: THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR FACE!

Don’t freak out, European traditional theatre, festival masks, carnival & circus also have a bunch of non-naturalistic styles you can play with:
