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.
Draw a line down from the middle of the nose (between the nostrils) to the upper lip. This line gets wider as you get towards the upper lip and you then draw it along the upper lip to the corners of the mouth. Continue the line beyond the corners of the mouth and upwards in a curved shape.
When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.
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.
Hint: Regularly change the water you rinse your brushes in and preferably work with two water bowls: one for light and one for dark shades.
The eyes, including the black pupils, are drawn on the closed eyelids.
