Well, the latex did not turn out exactly as I had hoped-it was so shiny that in pictures my face just looks pure white from capturing the flash. Any hints on how to take the shine down a bit so next time I do not look like I fell into a shellac vat?![]()
The roadkill worked very well. . .everything oohed and ewwed as I walked across the floor each time. I went with a garbage bag for my "sack" and had the rat in there along with some toes and a bag of blood with an eyeball floating in it, and some various store-bought props. Everytime someone asked me what was in there, I would pull something else out. I brought some picture frames in with pictures of graves in them. All in all, it worked out well. . . There were 450 people there, and only maybe 7 costumed people overall. No fun.I was very disappointed that no one really got into it. What other day of the year do you get to come to work wearing whatever you want and be whomever you want? Oh well.

P.S. I found an easy way to get the latex out of my hair (which I am very glad for because it got all over my eyebrows and hairline)! Pantene conditioner. . .just work the conditioner in and rinse. . .then you can slide the latex right off!

Glad most everything went well...As far as your face, did you put any make-up over the latex? Translucent powder will take the shine away...

I dressed up as Little Miss Smartie Pants this year. Very cost effective as I'm getting married and very cute. I just used my hot glue gun and glued mini Smartie boxes on jeans that I don't usually wear and I put my hair in ponytails. I have to work today and the people that came in told me how cute I was.
Look forward to chatting with some of you in the future. This is my very first message. [:X]
