Thanks so much. If you find it locally at a costume shop or a magic shop they will sell ben nye because it is theatrical makeup and it is very affordable. I think it ranges from $3-$5 it is very high quality.
and uses can vary depending on what is being covered. since i was Aradia for 3 days i went through a whole tin because of arms and ankles. might I suggest getting 3 or 4 just to be safe. you could try PAX but its like a mix between acrylic paint and makeup or something and is difficult to remove. but yes um I cannot say for sure on how many uses are in a tin. one tin can last years for some people. but they also aren't going full grey either. so. just to be safe get three or four little containers. I still have some left over but I am also going to need to buy more for animinneapolis in july. and i am definitely picking up more than i did at detour.
Happy trolling.

question. when doing this for your arms n such, does it rub off easily?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
if you powder your arms and seal your arms it will hardly move make sure you really get that powder on there and brush off the excess so it isn't white and apply several layers of your final seal or other makeup sealer, also it may be easier to take the gray paint out of the container and mix it up with a Popsicle stick so its more creamy because if its not warmed up a little it's really hard to get on and is more streaky than anything.
i learned this the hard way i know that a couple of them put it in the microwave for a couple seconds and then it was nice and smooth and easy to put on. You may also want to have another person who will be a troll help you put the makeup on your arms/hands because it's difficult otherwise. but as long as you powder and seal the shit out of it it shouldn't come off really. but don't expect it to not show up on your shirt at all because it will. xD but nothing really bad at all.
oh my i am rambling.
Happy trolling, love. <3
lemme know if you have anymore questions

XDD epiiic, yea im glade equius wears tights mostly. im wondering if it will be easyer to just wear a zentai suit? and just color my face n neck o3o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you definitely could, but you wouldn't get the same effect especially if people are gonna take pictures. since zentai suits are shiny.and would look silly if you have a matte face/neck then shiny arms/hands

Lovely tutorial! This sure helps. c:
But I was wondering, did you purchase your makeup online or in stores?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! <3
you can get it online. I got mine at Twin Cities Magic which is local for me.
if you can find somewhere close to you that sells ben nye you are good to go its easier than paying for shipping seeing is how everything is 5 or 6 bucks. and shipping is up to 9 bucks or more. :3

This is so brilliant! I won't be doing Equius, but it definitely was helpful to see how you work with shading grey skintones :3

you make a great looking equius. c:
may i suggest a little bit of blue hue on the nose, perhaps ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!!!
I was thinking that too. but I was thinking for maybe a fem equius. blushy noses are so cutesy i love them. but it's true even for man-equius there could be a slight blush in the nose :3
Thanks for the suggestion I wont go as him, but you make a good point i will have to edit this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're welcome, haha. And either way, I think trolls nose's would have a hue regardless, esspecially Equius because he always seems nervous, sweating, and in need of a fresh towel.
But you never know, haha. I was hoping I could maybe learn to love Karkat more and be him for a convention sometime..since I imagine him short and pudgy. I would just need a black wig, the horns, and his shirt. other than that id just buy a pair of grey sweatpants and possibly wear my old black sketchers. c: and if I wouldn't go as karkat, i'd go as Dan from Dan Vs. <3 love that show~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Good point!
What is Dan Vs.? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a show about an angry guy who hates nearly everything. I could link you one of my favorite episodes, haha. I would make the PERFECT Dan.
