Tips when working with Water Make-up:

Regularly change the water you rinse your brushes in and work preferably with two water dishes: one for light and one for dark shades.

When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.

To make beautiful, thin lines easier, mix the Water Make-up with Cleansing Lotion instead of water.

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.

The shape, width and quality of the brush are to a great extent qualifying the effect you can achieve with it. For instance, round brushes are ideal for making curves and drawing curls. 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. This brush is also very convenient for making a thick line merge into a thin one, turning the brush on its side in one fluid action as you go automatically changes the line from thick to thinner.

Colour the area around the eyes white with Water Make-up Pure 001 and a slightly damp make-up sponge or brush IMP8.

Mix the colours Water Make-up Pure 508 and Water Make-up Pure 001 to get a light pink colour. Take out a bit of both colours with a spatula and mix the colours together well in an empty water bowl or on a Mixing Palette.

Take a damp make-up sponge with light pink Water Make-up on it and pat the edges of the white eye surfaces with this, so that both colours blend nicely into each other. Finish the shape of the snout, the cheeks and the ears with the light pink Water Make-up and brush IMP8.
