Default Makeup Effect

Fellow Goblins,

I’m not sure this is the right place to post this question on makeup but what the heck, right? Someone some time ago told me about a makeup you apply and when it dries it makes your skin look old, flaky, and cracked. I’ve tried looking around on the net but have found nothing like this person told me. Has anyone heard of it and might be able to point me in the right direction?

Apply sprit gum to your face and stick cotton from the rolls that come in a box that say absorbent cotton. Let it dry. Pull off the excess cotton. Apply liquid latex to small areas and while stretching the skin, dry the latex with a hair dryer. When the skin is released it will wrinkle up and look old and nasty.

Spookzilla, you are going the wrong direction man! Some of us worship moisturizer.

True, true, Madame, but you have to admit the flesh falling from my face is attractive.

Hey Spookzilla, basically any liquid latex applied as described by bw1 will give the effect of crinkled, wrinkled skin...but there is a specific product that I have had good success with in the past, it's called "Fake Skin" and it is made by a co. called Living Nightmare. I've used it both to wrinkle and age my skin ( I know, MT, weird, huh? Most days I'm buffing and moisturizing to make it smooth!!) and to give the effect of skin peeling away. Spencer's carries it every year, and it's also available on line.

On second thought...everyone who haunts the forum radiates such inner beauty, not to mention a somewhat warped sense of outward beauty, that wrinkled falling flesh couldn't make us any less attractive. Moisturizer be damned I say

Thanks MHooch!

I think you have found the product I've been looking for, now all I have to do is find who sells it online if I don't manage to get by the mall before Halloween to Spencers.

bw1's comment is excellent...you can even do the effect with just latex, can stipple it on the skin in sections and then stretch the skin while applying heat with a hair drier...powder the latex after it's dry so it won't stick to itself, then relax the skin a voila! Instant wrinkles.

The spirit gum and cotton provide a stronger and more durable effect. You can strengthen the wrinkle effect with painted shadows and highlights.
