FX spray on make up

By akasha_ishtar. 25/02/09, 12:30 pm

I was just wondering if any of you guys know where I might be able to get some FX spray on make up in our wee counter, I’m talking about the professional kind of that is used in film and tv, I would also like to try and get my hands on the spray gun as well in order to use it, I don’t want to have to get it imported because it would cost me a fortune. I don’t want to use normal body paint because that stuff leaves a shocking mess and I’m not going to coat myself in white powder, done that a few years ago and that was a pain because I had to keep reapplying it and that made a major mess to, the FX lot cleaner to use, very fast draying and does not need to be touched up as often.

Spray on/Airbrush FX body makeup is the same stuff as liquid body makeup... The only place I know to buy decent FX body makeup is the internet though :think:

unless you don't mind cheap liquid body paint you can get at those shop emporiums, because when airbrushed on its less likely to crack on your skin even if its a cheap type.

Umm you'll need an airbrush gun to airbrush it on. I got mine in Bunnings so you can get it from most craft and hardware stores nyahaha

Oh I never thought of that, does the cheaper dry really well when airbrushed like that so ya not left with a nasty stain on your costume???

The cheap stuff has a 'tacky' feel to it once sprayed on your skin (though if your skin can't easily move or breathe under the body paint dont use it!!)
so it will still rub onto things unless you use a makeup sealent spray on top or translucent powder to prevent it from rubbing as much. I've heard that hairspray can act as a alternative to sealent spray(if you can't find it) but don't spray too much or your face will feel rather plastic coated O.o
