      i mean, you can always try some of those fixatives for makeup that come in a form of spray and basically do what hair spray does but for skin, although you would have to test it before to make sure that it doesn't ruin the paint before it dries off. that being said, if those things can hold my makeup for like 12 hours even though it's mostly powder and glitter, they should help to fix even bodypaint

    I think the colourful boogers might be caused by the lacrimal punctum, small holes in the bottom eyelids that lead into the nasal cavity. It's because of them that you get a runny nose when crying.

    GREAT video! I've been curious about doing body paint for awhile now but was too intimidated by "what's the right paint? I'd need a full palette of paints for even one color. There must be some eldritch secret to doing all this and I don't have warlock powers." This makes it VERY approachable, and I think I might be doing one soon! Thanks so much!

      This is a really cool idea! It also might hint at if they are warm-blooded or not. For exmaple, a red-scaled lizardfolk with silver-ish details has a much colder vibe than normal red.

    My preferred face paint method is Mehron’s Creamblend sticks. I do a base of white and then put my actual color where I would normally contour, and once it’s all blended, it looks great and like I already contoured. Cream makeup is definitely easier to blend than water based and doesn’t sweat off like water based does, but it does require extra steps for setting

    I knew nothing about shading and even though I used Snazaroo I didn't know it needed to be set with a powder. I was rubbing grey paint on everything, but it was still one of the most fun cosplays I've since the costume itself was easy and I got to help my friend do Princess Bubblegum.
    This is a great video and I can't wait to try some of the techniques!

All wearing black ( of course ) And the rule setting said we get dmg by the sun and need to cover up all time. The painting on the skin was a mess, after a short while we looked like molten ice elves. And i bet, here in Germany even a hot summer day is not like a texas summer. So i am impressed.

  • @christopherg2347
    @christopherg2347 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Colored Boogers are because of your Tear Ducts. They Lead excess fluid from your eyes surface to your nose. They are on the nose side corner of the eye. Basically they are your eyes drain/spillway.
    They have no issues coping with the normal eye-liquid cycling. Any excess liquid that makes it to your nose evaporates before you can notice it.
    If the eye-liquid cycling is higher, you do get a runny nose. As it can not evaporate quickly enough. (but you also can get a runny nose from issue further up the nose cavities).
    And if you have tears, it is because the liquid cycling goes way beyond the the tear ducts ability to drain. That is your eyes overflowing.
    When washing you probably get some color into your eyes, where it is drained into you tearducts and has a direct way to coat your boogers. Given a few days.

    Love this video, so helpful! I've been dabbling in the sfx world for a while now, and face/body paint was just as intimidating to me as working with latex at first. I learned that there's no harm in just trying and playing around. Mehron Paradise and Chameleon are my two faves. Keep up the great work. ❤

    Three questions came up:
    1. How does this differ for men? (Was thinking of the eyeliner bit)
    2. How do you make sure that scars or tattoos don't shift from one implementation to another?
    3. What would you suggest using to make, say tattooed sleeves for a Ancients Barbarian.

    The technique for lips is honestly pretty brilliant.

    I found your channel today and, after watching maybe a dozen videos, have to say that your sponsors should pay you more. idk what they do, but it needs to be more. Your ad skits are actually enjoyable! Obviously the content got the sub, but the skits are 100.

    Excellent! While I have no plans for this at the moment, I will certainly come back to your video if I am ever in the position to do a character requiring body paint!
    By the way: CONGRATULATIONS on the video with Laura for CR's 7th Anniversary show! I was so happy to see/hear you on there last week, and it was very weird to see the actual Laura Bailey next to you as Jester, because I think of you more readily as Jester in a costume/physical sense than I think of Laura, despite the fact that she created Jester, etc.! Still, that's quite the honor that she asked you to do that, and of course you did a fantastic job, so I hope that if there are future occasions when a Jester duplicate is called for, you'll be the one she calls! :)

      You know: as I think of it further, it kind of looked like "Big Sister/Little Sister Jesters" in the video, which was interesting to imagine as well! Or like she was "film Jester" and you are "chibi Jester," and I say the latter as a total compliment because chibis are awesome! ;)

    Oh man... colorful boogers brought me back. I spent 7 years working at Medieval Times and painting shields with spray paint. Needless to say, this is a concept I was familiar with.

    It's funny, I've had this video in my watch later for a while now, but I saw it after it had been up for like 2 days. It's confirmed my plans for this year lol
    I've been planning to cosplay my Kaldorei character for my local ren fest this year and I'm currently gathering supplies and crafting her look. I purchased some Bob Nye paints and have experimented with them to get the right look, but still trying to figure it out. Anyway, this video has been a big help!

    Ah yeah every time I do body paint I always thought I needed to layer it, but lo and behold, it would rub off as I dipped it back in lol. Thanks though this’ll help ☺️✨
