Red Eyes

Our character will need to have red eyes because of the previous drug use. There are a few ways we can do this: One way is to peel an onion and rub a small piece below the characters eye. Onions produce sun-propanethiat-s-oxide, a chemical irritant that causes the eyes to produce tears and turn red. Another way is to use red and brown make-up to draw around the eyes. We also need to have red marks around the characters neck, we can use brown and red make up to do this too. I will use this video to help me with the red eye make-up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1AXBiTTruQ

Aged Skin

Our character will also need slightly aged skin, this is to show the previous drug use as it makes skin age quicker. To do this I will need to get dark coloured powder to change the face shape and certain bits of the face. I got some ideas from this blog: rochellebarlow.com/how-to-look-really-old-with-stage-makeup/

We will also need our character to be fairly sweaty, which I would use water for. They also need to have a pale face and pale lips, therefore we can use pale foundation for this.
