New Cartoon Lip Art

Cartoon lip-art has won London makeup artist Laura Jenkinson a large internet following. She uses theatrical makeup and occasionally lipstick to create her portraits, which have included the likes of Roger Rabbit and the Lion King. Jenkinson’s inspiration and technique are surprisingly simple:

“I’d seen loads of other fantastic make-up artists on Instagram and I wanted to do something similar and on a bigger scale so I started doing about one a week,” Jenkinson told one online publication. “I find a picture and then just hold it up to the mirror as a guide and draw straight onto my face – it’s easier than you think!”
