This Israeli makeup influencer uses her eyelids as a canvas to create beautiful works of art inspired by her favourite paintings, movies and nature.
Tal Peleg, who lives in the city of Modi’in-Maccabim-Re’ut in Israel, has always been passionate about beauty and has been working as a makeup artist for over 10 years.
She started to share her stunning illustrative makeup designs online about six years ago, and quickly captured the attention of many people who fell in love with her art.
Peleg told The Jerusalem Post: “It was a process, over time I challenged myself to create more and more illustrative looks.”
She says this art form is very time consuming and requires a lot of patience. Some designs take up to five hours to complete.
Peleg said: “It takes a lot a lot of patience, I sometimes say that more than I have talent I have super patience. This is my superpower.”
She usually sketches her ideas on paper before picking up the brush and eye-shadow.
Peleg said that she is inspired by her favourite movies, animated TV shows, books, and sometimes even food or nature.
Some of her designs include themes from Beauty and the Beast, The Shining, Dumbo, Alice in Wonderland, and The Little Mermaid.
Nowadays, Peleg rarely wears makeup in her day-to-day life and the only time she opens up her makeup bag is when she is ready to create another stunning look for her Instagram page.
The Israeli ‘makeup wizard’ said: “I usually just remove the make-up right after I take a photo of it.
Thanks to the enormous exposure she gained online, Peleg has also started doing commission work for big companies such as 21st Century Fox, Verizon, and Mattel’s Barbie.
The makeup artist has over 235,000 followers on her Instagram page where she shares her latest works.
Recently, she also revealed her love for sculpting and shared some amazing artistic figures.
She wrote in one post: “Sculpting is my passion and part of my artistic journey, and I’m here to stay and share it all with you.”
