Daring stories. Iridescent sets. Impeccable costumes, hair and makeup. The Oscars are back despite a difficult year celebrating the best in cinema. The 93rd Academy Awards not only recognizes talented actors. It is also a ceremony honoring artistic and technical professions. Makeup, hair styling and fashion are in the spotlight as the world adjusts for the event to see the latest fashion and beauty trends.
And when it comes to skin care, the trend is towards a radiant, healthy complexion. Therefore Eminence Organic Skin Care was thrilled to supply products for the set of Hillbilly Elegy, a film nominated for Best Achievement in Makeup and Hair Styling in 2021. Directed by Ron Howard, the film contains Oscar-nominated actresses Glenn Close and Amy Adams, as well as Freida Pintowho was already a huge Eminence Organics fan! If you want to see what cleaners, toners, and other products these actresses used on set, read on.
Hillbilly Elegy: Make-up & Hair Styling
Back in May 2019 when the film was being shot, Eminence Organics received an email from Jamie Hess, one of the makeup artists he works with Eryn Krueger Mekash, the head of the movie's makeup department. Jamie mentioned that "between the glue, denture removers, and weather, keeping everyone's skin in tip-top shape (was) of the utmost importance," said she recently discovered Eminence Organics and was "absolutely in love with them". After providing some information about the stars' skin types and concerns, the Eminence Organics team created custom regimes for each star to be sent to the set.
Based on the bestsellers of the same name, Hillbilly Elegy J.D. Vance (Gabriel Basso) when he comes of age in an impoverished Ohio city. J.D. & # 39; s mother (Amy Adams) gets into a spiral of drug addiction and remains in the care of his grandmother. Freida Pinto completes the cast of the Netflix adaptation as a student at Yale Law School who is with Vance.
Thanks to the talents of Jaime, Eryn, Patricia Dehaney (Head of the hair department) and Matthew Mungle (Prosthesis designer), the star of Fatal Attraction, Glenn, is unrecognizable as the family matriarch Mamaw. Her transformation included an abdominal prosthesis, low jeans, boxy Reebok sneakers, oversized glasses, and frizzy dark hair. Similarly, Amy completely transforms into her character with the help of a hair styling, wardrobe, and makeup team.
As Eryn describes in her article posted on the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild blog: “I coordinated a very precise application and timing with Jamie so our actors wouldn't wait long for the others to be ready . Glenn's application began with Patti in wig preparation, then she came to us. Jamie put on my right ear and I put on my left. While Jamie was painting Glenn's hands, I started applying the nose. As soon as I taped the nose in place, Amy would come with Patti to prepare the wig. "
When it came time to transform on set, makeup artist Glenn's face added a silicone nose and gelatin ears, as well as age spots, blemishes, freckles and veins. Despite the less glamorous transformation, the cast and complexions were kept healthy with Eminence Organics products. Needless to say, we'll be checking out the Oscar winner results on Sunday April 25th!
