Face as canvas: celebrating life with Vanessa Davis’s skull makeup art

Vanessa Davis, also known as The Skulltress on social media, is a makeup artist who creates stunning face art designs inspired by Calaveras — the decorative skulls used in the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead. Her work is a vibrant fusion of tradition and modernity, as she uses her face as a canvas to elaborate intricate patterns and motifs that pay homage to the sugar skulls’ rich cultural heritage.

Davis’s makeup artistry goes beyond mere aesthetic appeal; it’s a transformative experience that blends makeup and mixed media to craft pieces that are both spooky and spectacular. Each design is a testament to her skillful application and creative vision, making her one of the most innovative artists in the realm of decorative skull makeup. Her art not only celebrates life and death but also showcases the endless possibilities of makeup as a form of artistic expression.
