An expert in cosmetic raw materials and one of the world ‘s best formulators for special effects products, Richard has been interested in cosmetic arts, formulation, and special effects since he could walk. Moving to Hollywood found him applying special effects make-up on hit US TV series, Heroes. Prior to this, Richard has also applied special effects make-up for One of Them (2003) and The Usual Suspects (1995). He also worked on the Lord of the Rings trilogy (2001-2003) and made cameo appearances in The Fellowship of the Ring and in The Return of the King. Additionally, he was a special effects painter for The Prophecy: Forsaken (2005) and Hellraiser: Deader (2005). When Richard first started using DMK Cosmetics, his first comment was, “Yes-ah-Pleese!” Richard continues to be excited by DMKC and is one of our biggest promoters. He loves the fact DMKC can be used in special effects, on latex and gel appliances with ease of application and perfect skin tone matching.
