Environmental Bodypainting Campaigns

Often within advertising campaigns bodypaint and makeup is used to communicate a message. Whereas the previous campaigns i researched were mainly photoshopped images and photography the campaigns below focus on environmental issues and how they can be represented with makeup.

Exploitation of the Female Body in The Media

I really love this campaign, im note sure if it photoshopped onto the back of his head or if it is a paint job. Either way i think it is so simple yet effective. And possibly i could do a series of makeups like this for a photoshoot. 

Peta Use body painting a lot in their campaigns, and they get a lot of protests from Feminist groups for this. There are a lot of issues surrounding their campaigns and exploitation of women, and sexism. 

These two makeups of the planet are really inspiring, and i have been thinking of focusing my makeup in this direction for a while. I would love to create the planet earth on someone. 

 

Save the Planet: Try Vegan Campaign - Body Paint. 

 

What i like about this ine the colouring of the body. I can see where the artist has got her inspiration from. It seems that the artist has researched colouring on globes and possible heat maps. 

 

I also really like the fact that one of the continents is painted on her 

 

These particular campaigns i do not like as much as all. I don't think they are skillfully done or are tasteful. Especially the Exotic skin Kills campaign. I think it exploits omen's bodies in a really negative way. And the makeup is not even aesthetically pleasing. 

This i think is a really cleaver campaign.

i really like the combinatino of acting and makeup which brings this to life. It isnt purely based on the makeup or the photography.
