How long does it take to do the makeup for each person in Puteri Gunung Ledang The Concert?

Actually the look itself is very fast. It can take 45 minutes to 3 hours to complete a look. We begin 3-4 hours before show call time.

How many looks for the Puteri Gunung Ledang (Tiara’s) character?

For the original PGL, there was only 1 look but for The Concert, there are 3 looks for PGL. The 1st look is with Swarovski crystals stuck one by one, the 2nd look is modern beauty makeup and the 3rd is the original PGL makeup.

Which is the strongest look?

The strongest look is the one with the Swarovski crystals and the original PGL look. The challenge was to change the looks within 3 minutes.

What’s the base makeup for the PGL character?

We used ProLongwear Foundation & Concealer, no setting or translucent powder. ProLongwear is long-lasting. ProLongwear Mixing Medium fixes products on to the face. We use ProLongwear Mixing Medium with eye shadow and pigments for more long-lasting effect.

You have used a lot of ProLongwear products. What are the benefits?

ProLongwear is good when you don’t have much time to change the makeup. The cast need time to rest and eat. With ProLongwear, we just tone down some of the colours, e.g. eye shadow is the same but we just change the lip & blush colours.
