I'm playing Fantine in our schools upcoming spring play (were doing Les Miserables.) There's a part where she shaves her head off and look really...bad and sickly. What can I use to give myself the look of I'm actually about to just die. It's a small school so we don't really know a lot about this stuff! Thanks. (:

My advice is to wear a light foundation like the girls above said. Also apply a concealer under your eyes that is way to light, it will increase the visibilty of any bags that are there. I also suggest looking up how to contour to make you look very thin and malnutritioned...

Would love to see your performance, I just auditioned for GSA with I dreamed a dream and other stuff... Musical theatre is my life... lol

I would do a pale face and lips and reddish blackish under your eyes. When I played Fantine, they did just that and I really looked sick. Maybe add some cold sweats for the role! (spray some type of shimmer) hope this helps!
