Grimas | Various examples

If you do not want the colours to mix, be sure to wait for the first layer to dry before applying another colour over it or up against it.

Water Make-up works just like watercolour paint. Use a brush or a make-up sponge to make the make-up a bit mushy.

When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours. If you do not want the colours to mix, be sure to wait for the first layer to dry before applying another colour over it or up against it.

Hint: to make beautiful, thin lines, you mix the Water Make-up with Cleansing Lotion instead of water.

Grimas Water Make-Up (Pure) can be used around the eyes, but children often do not like it when brushes are so close to the eyes. So decide yourself how far you want to extend the colour.
When working under the eyes, have your model look upwards - only with the eyes, without moving the head. If you work above the eyes (eyelid), have your model close his/her eyes in a relaxed manner.

Children are inclined to shut their eyes tight. Then you can say: keep your eyes closed as if you are sleeping.

General tip: Water Make-up can be used to add (additional) colour to the hair and eyebrows, provided that the hair is not permed, bleached or dyed. Use a toothbrush to do this. Hair that has been coloured using Water Make-up (Pure) can be washed with shampoo.

When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours. The shape, width and quality of the brush are to a great extent qualifying the effect you can achieve with it. You draw straight lines preferably with a flat brush, keeping the handle of the brush pointed in the direction of the line. To draw a thin line, you do not necessarily need to use a narrow brush. You can also use the edge of a flat brush for that. Hint: to make beautiful, thin lines, you mix the Water Make-up with Cleansing Lotion instead of water.
