Clown Makeup: Tips and Tricks for Applying Professional Quality Clown Makeup

What is Clown Makeup?

It is often important to be aware of the tropes associated with clowns and their preferred methods of marketing. As such, it’s important to be aware of both “good” clown makeup as well as “bad” clown makeup. Of course, you can enjoy both equally. 

Good Clown Makeup: Bad Clown Makeup: How Do I Deal with Making a Clown’s Face? As we already mentioned in our article on Smoky makeup, the best way to make a clown’s face is to be comfortable with the face shape and find a place that accentuates your desired features. 

You can use a canvas to apply makeup or a small hand mirror to your face. If you find a mirror too constricting, try using a regular makeup brush for makeup application. For an individual clown, you may need to wear eyeliner.


The History of Clown Makeup

Interest in clowns is fading fast. Here in the US, the fear of clowns has kept them out of stores for some time now. In Britain, shops are still refusing to carry clown make-up. In China, a boy has gone missing after being found in costume. In the Czech Republic, clowns can be found for free at the local fair. 

Are clowns disappearing? Or are we in the midst of a clown "revolution"? Most modern clowns I’ve met use stop-motion and CGI to create their characters. Others, like the infamous Pennywise of IT, use computer graphics and prosthetic makeup. 

An easy way to get back into makeup and practising for future auditions is to do a YouTube search for "Making of a Clown.
