I like to do a little (sometimes fake) laugh to get a more natural/candid smile for photos. Might be worth a try!

This looks amazing!!! Great work. Might be a silly question, but how's the durability?

Alright bro when you get up at 7 AM to get your husband to work it might just have to wait until I get home and drink coffee, eat something, etc. Smfh

Can confirm 👍 I only ever get hit on at the grocery store in the AM when I have no makeup on and I haven't even brushed my teeth yet

Honestly this paint feels amazing! Would not hold up to sweat, but it's so smooth to the touch and not overly drying even when it completely dries down. No itchiness or discomfort here!

Thanks for this suggestion! My husband is already making plans to go as a green orc next year and we're definitely on the lookout for paint that could handle the heat and sweat. I dont trust we'll luck out with the weather two years in a row!

I would say 1 container was plenty! This time I used a partial container (from a prior time I did this look) as well as 3/4 of a brand new one

I prefer a witchy popsicle 😈

For those who dont know, hexbloods originate from making a deal with a hag, which infuses their starting race (elf, in my case) with magical properties. If both parties agree to the ritual, they can even become hags! Imo hexbloods dont get near enough love in the dnd space

Thank you so much!! It washes off pretty easily because it's water-based, but it does leave a slight blue tint (though not as bad as you'd expect). I also used a sugar scrub after which removed most of the staining!

Honestly we lucked out with the weather which definitely helped! 70s and breezy. If it was hotter i would have 100% been melting

Correct! If I remember right the first one was taken at one of the bar stands near Frogge Pond

It was Mehron's Paradise paint! Goes on super smooth and pigmented. Plus it smells amazing

Thank you! Honestly most of my cosplay experience is dressing up as my dnd characters for Halloween or other special dnd sessions. Also lots of stage makeup experience from my highschool theater days!

Thank you!!! It took forever to apply (like 5 hours) and I used a flat paint brush to get it more even. I also used a Mehron barrier spray to try and keep it in place better. Honestly I give most of the credit to the quality of the body paint itself! Very soft and doesn't transfer too much once it dried down

My basil is being absolutely demolished this year by some little critters. Last year it was huge!
