Mortuary makeup artists offer a unique gift to those mourning the loss of a loved one. It takes top skills and excellent training to perform well in this field. Making a person look the way they did in life is very important to family and friends of the deceased. We have all heard people comment about how "peaceful and good" a person looked at their funeral or wake. This is the work of those who excel in their work.
It is quite amazing that a person can be made up in death to look as they did while living, especially by an individual who did not know them. How this is done is the family member will give a photo to the funeral director, and the artist will recreate what he or she sees.
Most people have the desire to see their deceased loved one, one last time before they can say goodbye. Some may have a hard time accepting they are gone if they do not see for themselves. In the event of a death resulting from a long illness or an accident, this would probably not be the best idea if not for the work of these amazingly skilled individuals.
People might be surprised to learn of some of the materials used to make a deceased person look at peace. A combination of plaster, wire mesh, cardboard, paint, and other unexpected supplies may be utilized. Although this may be surprising, it is a wonderful gift to the person who has died and also the people who love them. One last final look at this person will allow most of us to accept they are at peace.
Ordinary makeup can not be used for a funeral. It would not work properly. Instead it would cake up and refuse to blend. This is because it is made specifically for warm, living skin. A special blend has been created that is easily applied to skin that is no longer alive.
Helping to create, or rather recreate the look of a lost loved one for their family is a unique gift. It requires a special person. It is indeed the final gift for a person exiting this world.
