The shape, width and quality of the brush are to a great extent qualifying the effect you can achieve with it. For instance, round brushes are ideal for making curves and drawing curls. You draw straight lines preferably with a flat brush, keeping the handle of the brush pointed in the direction of the line. To draw a thin line, you do not necessarily need to use a narrow brush. You can also use the edge of a flat brush for that. This brush is also very convenient for making a thick line merge into a thin one, turning the brush on its side in one fluid action as you go automatically changes the line from thick to thinner. When you come to the end of a line, lift the brush from the skin in a single smooth movement.
Hint: to make beautiful, thin lines, you mix the Water Make-up with Cleansing Lotion instead of water.
The teeth are painted over the lips using white Water Make-up.
When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.
Make the nostrils larger with the dark colour. Draw a line down from the middle of the nose (between the nostrils) to the upper lip. This line gets wider as you get towards the upper lip and you then draw it along the upper lip to the corners of the mouth. From the corner of the mouth you extend the line to below the cheekbone. Move the lower side of the mouth downwards. Draw a black line, parallel to the top line, going from the tip of the chin to the corners of the snout. Keep the front of the nose broad by working out the light colour up to the side of the nose. The nose now looks bigger than it is. Rub the darker colour towards the eyes to make them appear more deep-set.
Create a pointy-toothed pattern with white Water Make-up. Fill it in with red and finish with a thin black line along the teeth.
