![]() It's difficult to not have a straight line matching on the other side because we don't use stencils it's all hand-drawn. Last year, Gene told Australia's Triple M radio station that it takes him two hours to apply his makeup "because none of the lines on my face, and I've got a few, they're no straight lines. You're fixing, fixing and redrawing," he said. He sets everything with powder patted with a shaving brush. He uses a brush to fill in black paint around his eyes, widow's peak and mouth. "The most difficult part is to mirror what we see on the opposite side," he said. Then, he takes a black eyeliner pencil and stipples the design around one eye and connects the dots. He creams his face with what he calls a white clown foundation. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In a 2016 interview with The Press-Enterprise, Simmons said that he spends two hours on his makeup alone every night. The "60 Minutes" report on KISS's farewell tour airs tonight (Sunday, June 12) on Australia's Nine. The clip is part of a report from Sarah Abo of Australia's "60 Minutes" who was invited by Simmons and fellow KISS co-founder Paul Stanley for a taste of their jet-set lifestyle and to show her how they’ve survived and thrived in a notoriously fickle industry. A video of KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons applying the makeup on his face prior to the June 7 concert at AccorHotels Arena on the band's ongoing "End Of The Road" tour can be seen below. ![]()
