UPPER EAST SIDE — Cedra Pharmacy on Second Avenue is offering to make you look sufficiently spooky this Halloween — with a free holiday makeup application with any purchase on Friday, according to Brandon David Cross, the company's beauty manager.
Cross has roughly six years of experience doing high-end and editorial makeup and can paint scary faces in a snap, he said.
So far, he's created a pop-art face, a werewolf, a skull face and on Friday afternoon he had an appointment to create two creepy clowns.
All that is required is a purchase of anything in the store, from a tube of mascara to a tube of toothpaste, he said.
Cross, who has worked as a freelance makeup artist and worked back stage at New York Fashion Week, said he asked employees at Sephora this week if they were going to do creepy makeup for the holiday. When he found out the company wasn't offering, he decided to.
"There's no catch," he said. "Just come in and any sensible thing, I can do it for you. But I can't do an Ewok or Chewbacca."
