Hagop Arakelian (1894 - 1977) was a French film make-up artist. I saw a credit to him while watching Roger Vadim's And God Created Women. Other important directors he had worked with were Marcel Carné, Max Ophüls, and most notably Jean Cocteau because he did the make-up for Beauty and the Beast. Apparently, you can see him on the supplements of the Criterion DVD being interviewed on an old French television program that also has footage of him working on the Beast's mask. He doesn't have a huge resumé but he does have two important films under his belt, being the Vadim film and the Cocteau film.
