chris_hod Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 this year i'm going vamp for the initiative party, i've got myself a foam latex vamp forehead and was wondering if any of you had tips on blending one into your skin colour? or am i best going with an actual colour like white and whiting both the forehead and my face? Any advice is much appreciated :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbuzz155 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 my advice is to practise lots beforehand! i generally try to get the latex to be the same colour as my skin and then use a bit of white powder over the whole lot for the paler, more dead look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nixster Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) this year i'm going vamp for the initiative party, i've got myself a foam latex vamp forehead and was wondering if any of you had tips on blending one into your skin colour? or am i best going with an actual colour like white and whiting both the forehead and my face? Any advice is much appreciated :-) I've still got my paint kit from last year - if you want me to paint it for you. I got the kit from a FX specialist in America who does foreheads and stuff and he gave me instructions and advice, and as long as you are white I can do it for you. Up to you, I've got the kit with me anyway for the Saturday party and don't mind. Also see my introduction thread for my photo from last year....

chris_hod Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 that would be great! we are going to give it a couple of tries over the next week (just because i like to try and do these things myself) and if we are still struggling to get it to look right any help would be greatly appreciated :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even got the latex glue - DO NOT use spirit glue - it's dangerous near the eyes and stings like a B**** just from the fumes. If you do want me to do your make-up all you will need to bring is the mask a small paint brush and a make-up sponge - I've got everything else. P.s the brush would be for the glue so don't expect to use it again. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
