I use atagel mixed with green marble concentrate  ,to a kind of runnny yogurt texture ........ strech the skin and blo dry while holding the skin streached , guess its the same as aging stipple, I like what I use better , it usually helps to have an extra set of hands , one to streach the skin and one to blo dry the product

I use a tooth type brush and brownish illustrator to creat age spots buy running my finger against the bristles to acheive the look
And of course there is shading to creat hollows

Can you give me a link for the products?

What's the pros and cons of using this method versus a liquid latex stretch and stipple?  Is it fume-y?  Hard to get off?  Does it look more realistic than latex?

latex streack and stipple seems to have a less realistic look and feel , I'D love you to test it out and hear what you have to say Cynthia \
Not fume-y at all Honestly one of my pet peeves are Bad agings , and theres alot out there
Doing this tecnique blew me away , so real  Test it and tell me what you think
I have honestly NEVER use aging stipple , but everyone I see who does use it latex , just looks like they TRIED to age someone , not like they really were just  that old ...... thats how I learned about atagel, becouse I was insistant there was a better way , I'll have to post a before and after for you , I did it for a anti smoking campain

Pro: Something that you can use on someone allergic to latex
Pro: Like Watermelon, it peels off.  You'll still need to use some remover but not as much as you would with latex.

Con: a little more expensive than just buying wrinkle stipples.
Con: You have to make it ahead of time.

Aw don't be.  I've seen it in a couple of makeup books now - so the information's out there.

I kind of love you for it.

I'm starting to feel very "whatever the opposite of cutting edge is" in regard to sfx makeup.  I hardly ever get to do it anymore.  As ignorant as it makes me feel, I like hearing about new ways to do things.

For the OP (so I actually contribute something):  Shading/contouring I think is one of the most important parts of aging.  It's a really subtle, simple, quick way to age someone a few years quickly with just makeup.  Essentially you want to emphasize existing lines and contours by darkening the shadows and lightening the hilights.  It's sorta the opposite of beauty makeup but using the same principles of pushing shadows and pulling hilights.

Hi everyone,

I took those pics for everyone to see my result from all of your helps. Sorry I didn't have a before picture. I was 8 a.m. call all of the crew. I was in hurry to do this makeup, so I forgot to take a pic before I started. ;'( Oh well I will try to get his picture to show everyone later. This is my first old age makeup for my friend's short film. I had to make him to became 70 years old man. He's 56 years old. Not bad at all!!!




Thank you every one!!!

Need to do an old age transformation for a video and want it to be believable.

This forum thread saved me for a gig where I got to create half old/half young for an album cover concept. Thank for posting pics and products. I used the old Dick Smith Ager I & Ager II formulas I found online here: http://www.sapsema.org/stipple.html. Here's how my model's age makeup turned out:


I'm going to age a comedian next and will try Green Marble and Attagel instead of the old school Ager latex stipple. Thank you MakeupMan for sharing.

Really buetiful work !!!!
Love to hear your feedback on the attagel technique
