Final Major Project: Extreme Contouring – French and Saunders

For their 2017 Christmas special, French and Saunders chose to channel Kim Kardashian and poke fun at her trend for using heavy contouring makeup used for her Instagram feed. French’s face was plastered with blotches of different unblended foundations, which spoof Kardashian’s contoured face makeup. (French and Saunders mimic the Kardashians in new spoof 2017). In the video below, French explains that she doesn’t need to blend the colours as she will be airbrushed in the final version of the show.
