And The #31DaysofMehronHalloween Grand Champion Is . . .

This year's #31DaysofMehronHalloween Instagram contest inspired some of the most incredible creativity we have seen to date! We were blown away by the thousands upon thousands of submissions.  The variety of looks created with Mehron products never ceased to amaze us. If only October had more days so that we could have selected more finalists! You Mehron Girls and Boys definitely made it hard to not only choose our daily winners, but the overall winner as well. Congratulations to all the finalists and to the Grand Champion, Rigoberto Yepiz aka @ry_fx, who won for his scarecrow.

Rigoberto is a 28-year-old makeup and special effects artist from Tucson, Arizona. His submission was inspired by a desire to create an evil and creepy version of a classic scarecrow. The idea was to represent a different side of this traditional character. Rigoberto's look evokes the most evil man in town who people are afraid of because he is coming for their brains. It is hard to believe this makeup was done by someone who has only been practicing this art form for a year. 

"Our newest Mehron Boy has created the most epic Scarecrow in all the Land!" says Stephanie Koutikas, Mehron's Creative Director. "He is an inspiration to us all, new and seasoned artists. He has truly shown us the power of Mehron products through his art, and his drive for excellence has won the hearts of us all."

"Everyday I attempt different art inspired from things I love. Expressing my vision and art like this is a dream come true," says Rigoberto.

To create the look, Rigoberto used:

• Liquid Latex (Clear)
• ProColoRing Bruise
• Paradise Makeup
• Coagulated Blood Gel
• Stage Blood
