I need to turn black.

I know it sounds stange but that's the way it goes.

See, i have a year eleven formal at the end of the year and it's fancy dress.

and i really really really really want to go as la mariposa from DOA4.

The only problem is that she is black and i am very very white.

She looks like this for anyone who has no ideas what I'm talking about:



Any ideas for an uber UBER tan that is not orange, or alternate ideas would be really helpful.

oh and i look like this

They'd let you were that to your formal. That is AWESOME! And aside from lots and lots of fake tan (maybe try a spray tan?) i have zero ideas.

everyone else is just liek GIVE UP AND GO AS SELENE YOU RETARD MONKEY. YOU ALREADY LOOK LIKE HER....

i probably will if i don't come up with a brilliant idea for this

stage make-up? ive been wearing brown Kryolan make-up all week on my hands and body to make me look dirty for a show and it doesnt come off unless you scrub it with a make-up wipe..
i'd be more inclined to go with something like that rather than fake tan. cause fake tan is more likely to go wrong and less easy to remove.
but then im also scared of fake tan and ive never worn any in my life..

how would i get enought o cover that much of my body though!

if you have any theatre shops near you then they should sell bottles of it specifically for your purpose..
I use this site:
http://www.backstageshop.co.uk/acatalog/Kryolan.html
i think it was the Supracolour TV Paint Stick 25ml we used this week, we had two sticks and it did the whole cast for 2 weeks, although i suppose we weren't covering our whole bodies..
or liquid body make-up would probably be better cause theyre in far bigger bottles but it might be difficult to get the right colour, its mostlymetallic and statue colours they sell.

wouldn't it be easier just to buy a body suit and then just use makeup for your face & hands or use gloves?

I would not use fake tan because you might have it for longer than a night. use stage makeup...or chocolate sauce

ooh! i likes that idea..yummmm..

oh man chocolate sauce? hahah by the end of the night she'd prolly be all sticky and melting.

hmm
I'm liking the kryolan thing bu i wish it was in australian prices
pounds could be anything

If i fail at becoing black, does anyone have any other ideas :/ like for costumes?

also i think you're quite pale so if you got really super tan you would look a bit scary.

you could do another of the DOA characters? or like one of the girls from Sin City?

yeah another DOA character would be good. Ayane is cute



or if you're looking for something a lil' sluttier I'd suggest Christie

well, if you wanted to go to the extreme, you could get foundation in a dark shade [even mine, haha], orrr you could find a body suit the way Nova suggested. tans take too long to fade, and your delicate skin wouldnt look good with a negro tan, lozlzlzlz.

and Im so glad that I can say that without bein racist.
cos like, that would be awkward, since Im totally black.

but back to you!
if that doesnt work,
you could always pick another character. :]]
