Actual Thoughts I've Had, Verbatim...

Darker sticks closest to lash line, lightest color goes under brow bone and is used to blend the dark color at your eyelid crease.

[Mister Obvious]

If you're going for a goth look you should just go with the darkest color like 3/4 of the eyelid and only use the light color to highlight and blend right underneath the brow. No need to be conservative.

I'm not gonna bother with a bra. I have no bust at all. I think the turtleneck pencil dress with some opaque thigh-high leggings will work, as my hips are slightly wider than my waist. That should be convincing enough for a flat-chested girl. The main thing is to cover up as many tells as possible.

Black lipstick or red?

Sounds like a Dusty Springfield kinda thing...

That was the OG "raccoon eye" look before goth was a thing.

[user428]

That's a pretty cool outfit. Probably not something you'd wear everyday though.

Black lipstick or red?

Black with gloss over top, and make sure you dab off the excess on the inside of your lip by taking a few squares of toilet paper and gently putting it between your lips whilst closed mouth smiling.

I'm wearing black jeans and a black t-shirt, I like the johnny cash look, sometimes.

You can also use black eyeshadow as black lipstick too because usually, black lipstick isn't dark or opaque enough.

Take some black and white photos of yourself if you go to all this trouble... will look great.

That's a good look for a Native American girl.

Hey Dan, I was looking for your next Clint Eastwood AV earlier...

This one really spoke to me!?

Definitely not everyday. I probably won't even go outside in that get-up. lol

It'll be cool for chillin' at the house with my friend for a few days though.

[user428]

Awesome, thanks. I couldn't find any good ones.

[Mister Obvious]

Get your friend to take pics of you...

The hand/arm positioning will make all the difference in the world to deliver the character over film, so practice.

Of course you gotta do some plain hands at side for the Wednesday conveyance too.

I just don't like the cigar though. But as long as you know, then it's okay.

Thanks for the tips. I'll definitely post pics.

I think I need to arch my eyebrows, or at least pluck some wild hairs. There's no way they'll ever pass muster looking the way they do now.

I don't want to mess with fake eyelashes. Maybe just a little mascara to darken mine.

[Mister Obvious]

Yeah I didn't think you'd like the cigar.

I don't blame you man, you ain't gotta wear it!

But I thought it was pretty cute.

The original AV you wear when we all meet is the one that you are always gonna be remembered as.

[user428]

I'm sure that you could pull it off Dev.

[user428]

I'll use it until I find a better one lol.

Yeah, no falsies are necessary.

Don't pluck any brow action, just use the black eyeshadow to create the shape you want with an angled brush.

Angled brush will be your friend for applying the black lipstick/eyeshadow powder too.
