I have done pretty much anything with make-up.

The best story is probably good only becuase it was in a private school with a uniform and all that.

The director had problems with my looks so I decided to make life easier for him. I came to school with purple tights, mini skirt and all that and........the make up, that did it.
I made my eyes all red on the rims and then darker and also drew these stereotypical "tears" that goths in films like to do.

He was so shocked that he never said anything about my usual "attire" after that...well, after the 3 week detention.

rofl at DLBY's story ;D

Strangest thing I've done with my make- up is probably the things I do when going to town to play instant performance theatre (that is, you just randomly go to a place and start acting, of course without announcing that's what you're doing so that most people think you're some kind of freak lol). Because of some problems we've had in my country lately with homeless, drugs and prostitution I decided I'd state my opinions on the matter... I think that's the only time I've actually dressed and done my make- up so that I looked like a whore afterward. But people's reactions to the drugged, obviously crazy lady on the corner were memorable, to say the least *grin*. Probably one of my better performances. Acting is fun - and yes, I'm aware of that you'll all think I'm weird after reading this :P

I'm charging a wedding ring, housing, and 18 years at least before the initial act. After, I'm charing 2 kids at least, at age 28 while with a two-story house and both of us holding steady jobs and college degrees. Handcuffs, whips, and chains are a must.

Hihi... thank you *grins*

Well, the more moral people refused to even look at me, some threatened to call the police, but never did (I think). Others seemed very interested, one even asking what I was charging for umm... well, some very kinky things; Parents with kids suddenly changed course as they spotted me, making sure that their offspring shouldn't get too many glimpses of the scene (I don't blame them), and then there was this gang of male teenagers who couldn't take their eyes off my cleavage (roflmao!) and my general physique. Probably the first time someone's ever come close to drooling on my decoletté... Yes, I was very provoking, and seriously, I'd never do such a thing in public as "myself" opposed to just playing a character. In the end, a guard came and asked me to leave. Of course I made a big melodramatic scene out of it, so that people passing by should notice what was going on. Anyway, after a little more howling I went off, in a typical zig- zag "drunk style" looking for the nearest public toilet so that I could wash off the make- up which, by that time, had become quite cakey and sweaty. You have no idea how happy I was to go out in my normal black clothes afterward - I was surprised to see that when I walked past the teens I'd encountered earlier, they didn't recognize me. (A fact I do not regret).

Anyway, aren't we going just a little off- topic..?

ha ha ha...we dont have anything quite as interesting here...

at band practice, the guys play shirtless...and our drummer had a tad bit of a heavy night, the previous night...so while he was dozing off, between sets, we hit him with a permanent marker...sadly for him, he stays with his mom and she had to help him wash the enormous dong off his back...

Hmm all the weird stuff I've done with make-up has been for parties & such. I did myself up as a ghost/witch thing for a fancy dress. It took ages to cake my face, neck, chest & back in white face paint & cover it all with white powder. Then I had to draw eyebrows on & use liquid eyeliner to fill them in. The worst was the eye decoration because I had to draw tricky little veins coming off my eyes (if anything went wrong I'd have to take most of it off & re-apply) luckily I'd practised so it was fine.
Needless to say I felt a bit over done when I got to the party.

I've only recently started wearing eyeliner so there isn't really much to come from me... except that the first time that I had worn it it had freaked out all of the Preps in my classes and my Choir Teacher had called me... "daring". :P

I have always theorized on this technique for eye makeup, but that is the first time I have ever seen it done. At a distance, the effect is incredible!

Her face structure is wider than mine, though--I would have to do eye shape modifications to suit my own face (and characters).

When I was a young, angsty grade 10 who didn't know any better, I would always draw 3 vertical lines going down to about level with the bottom of my nose.

Occasionally now, when I'm bored or when I feel like it, I do three somewhat-diagonal lines with dots at the end. Prolly about half as long as my grade 10 lines, and with liquid eye-liner. Makes me look more like some sort of weird, depressed harlequin-doll, but with out the white face.

Another thing I've thought of would be to turn my eye into a fish by putting a tail on the outer corner, and fins on the bottom and top, but I haven't done that.

I like to get my eyeliner and draw on unibrows and moustaches.
I never use make up for its main purpose.
