If you're in the mood for a truly rock-and-roll costume, people don't come much cooler than David Bowie. The androgynous, glam-rock look of his Aladdin Sane [1] years takes a bit of energy to pull off, but it's worth the effort. MAC senior makeup artist Louise Zizzo, who did the Jem makeup tutorial [2], shows us how to get this space-rocker look.

For a list of colors used in this transformation, .

• Brows: Louise used glue stick to tame the eyebrows and to prepare them to be covered with concealer.
  
• Face: Contour the face with powder blush in Raizin [3] or Fleur Power [4]. Use a fluffy brush to give skin an airbrushed effect.
• Design: Sketch the design with a light brow pencil. Louise used Chromacake [5] to fill in the red and blue, but you can get a similar look with other products. Try the red part of Danger Zone [6] eye shadow or red lipstick (just blot loose powder on top to set the color). For the blue portion of the face, Freshwater [7] eye shadow should work. Using an angled brush like the excellent 266 brush [8], define the line with Fluidline [9] in Blacktrack.
  
• Lips: Use fingers to dab red lipstick on the lips, focusing in the middle portion. The idea is to add a hint of color without covering the lips entirely.
