    I have most of what I need for the Sabbatha costume, but I noticed that her skin has a blue tint.

    Without making myself look like an avatar, is there a makeup that would work? Any tips? I'm not so good at makeup stuff.

    Or should I even bother?

    I'll still do the fangs and blood, of course

    (Thanks for reading!)

    I've purchased makeup with a slight blue color , it was made by Mehron . It's called Blithe Spirit.

    I've discovered that pro makeup is the best way to go if you're going to be in the makeup for longer than an hour or so.

    I like that Mehron site, good stuff there. Bookmarking it & sending the link home too.

    Another cheapie trick for a lite green or a yellow face is color correcting makeup. Green offsets red on your face & yellow offsets those dark under-eye circles, but if you use a lot more than you'd need to cover up flaws, it looks pretty good once covered with a translucent powder.

    Mehron looks like a good company. I went to their site and looked and looked for Blithe Spirit in any variety. No go. I just emailed them to see if they have any.

    Thanks for the tips!

    Thanks Sychoclown! I see that now. Can I bug you with one more question? Is it better to use the greasepaint, liqiud makeup, or creme? Or something else?

    Liquid makeup is my first choice if I'm gonna wear it for a few hours. It goes on lighter in the skin. If I remember correctly when I used grease paint it smeared alot. I've even used cheap acrylic paint from Walmart, it does the job. Try a few different types and see what works for you.

    I received an email from Mehron that Blithe Spirit has been renamed to Moonlight White.

    FYI.
