Thank you!

A mold of a face is very different from the real face without the skin tone/color/lighting. Different skin tone will totally change how a face looks even if the mold is the same.

You could make a plaster covering of each eye. One at a time and then add each one to your eye holes. Not perfect but better than just empty.

I was always told this was impossible, but yours turned out great.

Hi am I able to use this plaster mold to make other masks out of a wall compound? I just want to use this one as the mold for future Venetian masks that I make, so that they have my face shape. Is it an easily breakable rock material?

I think she needs to see a shrink,

Hello Gret vid, and informative. I want to do this but i heard that plaster heats and can burn you when curing. Is there a casting type you specifically use?

Hi can I do this to my neck, boobs, back and hips pls? I need a lifecast of me so I can display my products thanks

what kind of plaster is it!? from where do I get it?

How well would a Moustache come out if one were to use this method?

Is it safe for skin??

Cold or warm water please? Thx!

Still helping 8 years later !!!

NO I forgot the olive oil. Did i ruin it now?

THANK YOUUUU!!!!

You look so cute and friendly w/out make-up. With one, you are a different person

Good budget option for sure. Trying to make masks that fit my alien head, armatures aren’t sold that match that purpose.

Thank you for this awesome and easy tutorial! I see the channel is not active anymore, but I hope you are still making cool art :)

perfect

So should you use any kind of Grease or anyting to prep the cast before you start molding things onto it?

As a professional effects makeup artist, I do NOT recommend using plaster directly on the skin! I don't mean to take anything away from this well-intentioned craft project, but it is important to be prepared, and SAFE. Plaster, when it sets, is a chemical reaction- not just air-drying, but a chemical reaction- that produces HEAT! Thicker plaster causes more heat. Many people have "gotten away" with using thin plaster strips agains their skin, with no ill effects. Often it's thin enough to not build up too much heat. Many people have had mild to even severe burns, because of the plaster heating up against their skin, and you can't pull it away fast enough. Different plaster strips have different properties. The ones sold in most craft stores do not have skin contact in mind; they're made for craft purposes only. If you do get plaster bandage, get it from a medical supply or makeup effects supply, so you know it's the kind that has human contact in mind. I recommend using an alginate, or skin-safe silicone, against the skin, then using plaster for the support shell. It adds a step; it adds some expense. But it is safer! This kind of DIY face-cast can sometimes work out okay, and can sometimes end in disaster. Another safety factor is to have someone else help you. Sometimes we're by ourselves, and have to do the best we can. But if you have someone who can help you, having a person outside is much easier and safer. Be careful, everyone! You only get one face; take care of it. I encourage people to be creative, do art, make things. But be safe, too!

It looks amazing great job explaining

Is it possible to fit the mask over your face or no, because you filled in the inside of the original mold, that now this mask would not fit over your face?

👏👏👏👏👈👈👋👍👍👍👍

What kind of latex did she use for the plastic hair protection anyone?

I love your stuff! Do you have an Instagram? :)

Thank you!

R.i.p. ❤

Is it possible to do a mold with eyes closed? Vaseline… or do you not recommend that

Wow that is amazing Thank you so much for sharing this xxx 😍🤩

R.i.p. much love beautiful soul 💛 ❤ 🙏

7:38 I am so grateful for your “chill” personality, that’s going to be my best selling advice to introduce the idea of replicating Mom’s face, as she is fighting stage 4 cancer; So I’ll always have her image near to remember.

this is NOT your face on a mask, it is man`s face

So I followed your directions exactly but when I went to use it the first time 4 days after it finished drying the outer coating of wood glue just peeled right off. It didn't stick to the plaster it was sort of like a latex. I don't know what the hell happened but like I said I followed your directions exactly and it didn't work any ideas?

What is the white substance

Awesome video! you're cool :D

Great video, I wish you make more.

Nice mask...thank you! Dont cover up that pretty face though.

Using the cellophane is a game changer !!

awesome vid .. and such a cute presenter x

12:05 OMG it looks like Putin !!! 🤣🤣🤣

I am wondering if I can use the plaster form as a mask itself? Is it hard enough for me to wear it?

I'm thinking of doing something like this for photogrammetry as the attempts I've made at 3d scanning my head have been unsuccessful.

Excellent

My cast has lasted 6 years since watching and using your video my face has changed a lot now tho so I came to revisit your video before I make a new one later haha thank you !!!

🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏💯💯💯🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲

You speak way to soft. Should have kept the voice over

Will aluminium foil work too? I don't want my skin to break out when using the videos method:')

Thank you so much, great teacher. Beautiful end product

I used crazy glue and stripped newpaper pieces and applied it directly to my face. The mask mashe is thinner when used with glue. Use sand paper strips to smooth the surface. I tried paint but I chose my own cosmetics instead for a realistic portrait of myself. Self ❤ project.
