HomeSpaLady

Cat woman

  • Black ears
  • Black leotard
  • Black tights
  • Black boots
  • Make tail out of black felt
  • Black lipstick and nail polish

I Dream of Jeanie

Use a tube top for the top, and cut off a red vest for the jacket. Use baggie pants that can be dyed pink and an old pair of ballet shoes.

China Doll

  • White and Red Face Makeup
  • Thong Slippers
  • Kimono Dress
  • Paint face white and add red rosy cheeks shaped in a circle.
  • Put hair in buns, wear thong slippers and the kimono (Chinese dress).

Frazzled Housewife

Wear your hair in rollers, put on a green facial mask or green face paint, wear pajamas, black socks, ratty slippers and a dirty bathrobe tied cock-eyed. Put a TV Guide and a remote in your pocket, carry a crusty spatula, optional cigarette hanging out of mouth, use brown eye shadow under your eyes to make bags.

Instant Old

Apply base make-up all over face and neck. "Scrunch" up your face first to emphasize your "natural" wrinkles, and apply make-up that is lighter than your natural skin-tone (work on a small a great a time for best results). Then "de-scrunch" and fill in the creases using a soft brown eye-liner pencil. Create sunken cheeks by darkening the cheek hollows. Emphasize the creases around your nose, and darken along your jaw line. Create crows feet by your eyes. Pucker up your lips to create wrinkles around your mouth. Add liver spots, broken capillaries, etc. Blend everything with a make-up sponge. If you use make-up with a small amount of yellow added, you'll get a more realistic look. Use the same techniques on your hands for more realism. When you are all done, power allover with baby powder to set make-up and give a dry skin appearance. You can also use baby powder to make your hair look gray.
