Face Off — Season 4
The competition heated up when Syfy’s *Face Off* returned for its fourth season in January 2013. Fourteen incredibly talented prosthetic makeup artists battled it out week after week, pushing the boundaries of special effects artistry. This season was a showcase of creativity and skill as these artists faced increasingly challenging builds. Ultimately, Anthony Kosar, hailing from Lisle, Illinois, emerged victorious! His triumph earned him an impressive grand prize package: a chance to share his expertise as a guest lecturer at the prestigious Make Up For Ever Academies in both New York and Paris, along with a brand new 2013 Fiat 500 and $100,000. The season concluded March 26th, leaving audiences amazed by the artistry on display.
