| Halloween Makeup Recipe | Green:
● Make a full batch of icky green (green + a smidge of red should do it) to cover a witch's face.
● Make a very, very light green for a forest fairy or sprite.
● Also good for many pokemon (squirtle, for example)
Orange:
● Tiger
● Fire fairy or sprite
Yellow:
● Make a full batch of yellow for a flower (face is center of the flower)
● Make a full batch of yellow for Pikachu
Red:
● Make a full batch of red for Clifford the Big Red Dog's face
Blue:
● Make a full batch of blue for Blue's Clue's face
● Make a very, very light blue for a water fairy or sprite
Skin Color:
● Many cartoon characters or toys, like the Powerpuff girls, Raggedy Ann and Andy or the Toy Story characters, will look more "cartoonish" with a coat of skin color applied.
Why we use this instead of mom's makeup?
Be free to supplement with mom's makeup, but here are a few reasons why the homemade batch is often better:
● Let the kids make the homemade batch themselves - its lots of fun.
● The colors turn out a lot more Halloween-y than the colors most of us are wearing these days - depending on how/what food coloring you add. Not lots of us wear a witch's ghastly green.
● Boys may not appreciate mom's "makeup"
