Ending Scene Makeup

The ending scene of our film opening is a very dramatic one and it needs alarming makeup to go with it. What is happening in this scene is that Valentina, the lead actress, is going to be going into the bathroom to take a shower and she will set her phone down on the bathroom sink and turn the water on. She will then receive a call from her "friend" but that friend will have already been possessed by the evil spirit. Then, when Valentina answers the phone, she will be immediately possessed by it as well. Moreover, the makeup that I was thinking about doing is a very horrific one that I have seen before in a show that I watched. In the show Vampire Diaries, every time that a human turns into a vampire they begin to get veins under their eyes and their eyes become very dark and their eye color turns red. Even though Valentina isn't going to be a vampire, it is still a perfect look to make sure that the audience can tell that she has been possessed.

The image above is the exact look that we want to achieve on Valentina. I will most likely be doing it since I'm better at doing makeup than my partner and it will look better and more professional. I plan on using black eyeliner for the veins under the eyes and a lot of red blush on her cheeks to make it look darker. For the most important part of the look, the red contacts. Since we have started thinking about this idea of using red contacts, we have been planning on buying them online. But after thoroughly researching, we realized that this would not be the best option for us since it would take a couple of weeks for them to arrive. So, we have looked up places to buy them in the store around where we live, and there are halloween stores in Miami which is about an hour away. I will be going to Miami this Wednesday and I am going to purchase them. The ones that we want are just plain red or red with veins in them, any that I find are going to be perfect for the scene. These images below are the two types that I am talking about.
