Galaxy Makeup and Other Special Effects You've Gotta See to Believe ...
I’m always amazed at the different types of special effects makeup and how real they look, from galaxy makeup to aging, the results are unreal! There are some unbelievably talented special effects makeup artists out there that can create the most realistic looking scars, bones, muscles and certain features that you would never guess was makeup or prosthetics! I went through and picked out some non-bloody and hopefully not too gruesome photos for you to see. So, if you’d like to see some impressive works of special effects makeup, check them out below!
