It Only Hurts When I Type...

It's only two days until Halloween.  I haven't done prop makeup in a long time... I decided that I needed to do a bit of practicing before Wednesday.

I think that I remember it.  These are the tools I used.  Not the best, but I was too cheap and too lazy to go find a costume store. 

I got the "stage" makeup from K mart... I can't say that I am impressed, but it does work.  It only has to last through lunch. 

I am not worried about myself, but the other witches may lose their appetites with what I have planned. 

You saw the shirt and wig yesterday.  Now I am amassing wounds and trying to figure out how to have fingers fall off without losing any for real.

See the eyelash glue in the first photo.  That works, in a pinch, if you don't have any liquid latex for raising the edges of wounds.  It does take a while to dry, however.

I made little circles and smoothed out the outer edges to blend with my skin. 

Then when that was dry, I started with the makeup, blending as I went.

It must look OK so far.  George was somewhat surprised when I showed it to him....

He requested that I remove his glasses, so he wouldn't have to look at it.

I am going to leave it on for a couple of hours and see how it holds up.

Then bright and early, Wednesday morning, I am going to get up and do my face and both arms.  It may take a while....

Sorry about the lapse of minis.  I am going to go do something of that sort as soon as the wounds heal a bit...

See you tomorrow.
