I need some black eye advice from you experts out there. How do I make it look the most believable? What product to use? I have been creating them with mostly a combo of eyeshadows. Is there a better way??

Re: Best black eye
Wed, December 10, 2003 - 11:07 PMthe best thing i have found for bruising is Skin illustartor (www.skinillustrator.com) its like watercolors but you use alcohol to activate it. its good because u can realy achieve the translucensy by painting in washes and its waterproof.
the FX pallette has excelent colors that can be used strait or mixed to produse great bruising. for close to the eye i like using rubbermask greasepaint (kryolon's is fine) or cream makeup (ben nye has a good bruise wheel with all the nessecary colors in it) for refrence on painting black eyes, i reccomend finding the picture of jhony depp from the movie "blow" it may be on Ve neil's website.
happy bruising! -
