As the title suggests, last night I went round and round with a tube of white face paint and eventually lost. That crap is HORRIBLE. I was going to use it to make myself paler than I naturally am so that I could do a dia de los muertos sugar skull makeup look. I successfully covered my brows using a glue stick (for the first time!) but when I applied that white paint it flaked, and rolled and was all around awful. Luckily the nickname of albino that I was given in college was for a reason and I was able to pull off the look without using it. I think it looks pretty cool, and I am considering doing it again tomorrow, perhaps in another color. I did this around 3 am and was a little worried about sleeping in it, but it held up PERFECTLY. Not a single smudge. I was so excited! Tonight when we went to the fall festival at a local church everyone was totally impressed and couldn't help commenting on it. One sweet little girl stopped in the midst of an inflatable obstacle course to come over to the side and tell me I looked pretty. I can dig! lol.
Just outlined what I thought it should be, and got to it.
Finished product. Not too bad?
In Sepia, for fun. I like it.
Satina had never seen sugar skulls prior to this and she BEGGED to be that for Halloween instead of Lalaloopsy, which was all her idea to begin with. She was appeased with being told that not next year but the one after she can dress for Dia De Los Muertos. What are you guys being/doing for Halloween?
